Yup. Sums up FCA pretty well.

I used a touch up paint pen from Chrysler. Color I used was PS2(silver). I just used the paint brush on the pen itself. The brush is soft but if you mess up don’t worry about trying to remove the mess, just let it dry and if you take a small pick or flat head you can just chip away the excess.

I’ve been meaning to post these since I have done them. I successfully restored all the silver on the vent trim using some Chrysler touch up paint. The paint chips easy so making mistakes wasn’t a big of a deal. Now time to show off my hard work on that. I recently restored a dash bezel using the same method that will go in along with a factory radio at some point.

No. Neither of them are. The dealers that have them are back east and Chrysler is asking $1250.00 for these converters.

Here ya go!

Never mind. I’ve been beat to it. Thanks JMO!

Wellllll I found two dealers that have a torque converter but Chrysler’s price makes $200-$300 look like chump change.

Ok I am no longer in need of one. My idea pulled through. Thanks everyone!

I’ve got a reminder set to do some VINs this afternoon. I’ve been slacking a bit on these. You’ll get a full build sheet and build date and body code. Build sheet will have paint code

That’s a good question. I think it does. It also has a wire coming from it for the seat belt chime. Hang on to that thought Fiatslug, I may have figured out something. I’ll let you know tomorrow if my idea falls through. I really appreciate it!

I’m in dire need of a drivers side bench buckle in charcoal color. Hell I’ll take any color just to keep me safe until I find the right color. I’m honestly a little scared to drive now but my belt buckle is no longer latching and i don't know how to fix such. It’s almost as if the spring mechanism inside just disappeared and is no longer latching as it should. If someone has a spare or a fix to these buckles please let me know ASAP please!

Thank you! I’m currently awaiting on everything to be shipped. You are indeed next, keep looking and asking around and you’ll get it. I’ll probably do some sort of write up for those with the 2.5L.

Interior side is the same. Engine side is wayyyyy different. V6 and I4. GM engine to AMC engine. Finding any Renix AC pieces for the 2.5L are getting impossible. See if you can find someone selling a whole 2.5L from 86-90 with AC. That might be the only way to source the AC on the engine side.

I think the whole Renix injection system on that truck needs to be saved. And call me crazy but I think that truck had a power antenna.

Oddly enough my light says ford on it but has an AMC part number so there’s a range of fords and GMs that have that light.

Wire is always hot. You could but it would need to work the same way that the factory hood lights worked.

I just installed one not too long ago. Did you look on the passenger side of the engine bay? I found mine near the relays/blower motor/heater hoses area

They do indeed! They look good and ride pretty good. Ain’t no Wagoneer but I’ll take it for the nice ride on the street. Thanks! That reminds me, I need to post all the restored paint details I did to the vents and the new dash bezel I got. Nice part was that the paint chipped easy, so messing up slightly was no big deal.

I’d keep that current set up in case if you find cruise control in the future. Crown auto still has the upper and lower half of those cables still available.

Holy crap you bought that mirror! That’s a pretty penny right there. No problem for the lead. I just enjoy helping with everyone’s projects. Chrysler probably removed them later on to make those bumpers cheaper to produce.

Oddly enough those may or may not be OEM. Someone on here got an Omix one when they ordered one from them
