500 MJ

Yep, still got it. No horn button, what you see is what you get. Its used, has a few scratches and nicks but the leather is in very good overall shape. I'd like $45 shipped for it. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks - Brent

Let me check on the steering wheel. I think I've got one, IIRC it did not have the center horn button though.

Probably shoot straight down to LKQ for me - shorter drive with $4 gas...

If I make it to your place, I would love to see it. Doesn't need to be running for me. IMHO, don't stop progress on the project just for us!

Big push to get this roadworthy, I think I know what you'll be driving to LKQ with us on March 31st...

I will be there as well. Might be bringing a friend from work. I need to get those springs from you Rob, could you bring them to Rockford or should I plan on coming to your place?

I would love to do something like this. I won't be able to make that weekend though, I will be here: http://www.badgersteamandgas.com/ I'll keep an eye on this thread and see what other weekends people propose... northern MN isn't far, been there many times. Oh, and who would want to go to a railroad museum anyway? :clapping: That museum was a stop on our honeymoon last fall, we had dinner on the pizza train one of the evenings we were in Duluth, good time.

Where are you?

00:13 - Must be where we are supposed to be filling up at? http://youtu.be/VHiXwb_zo_A

Right here... viewtopic.php?f=24&t=34672 Help Jake out, verify everything in the drive-line is good to go, drive your parts-truck home.

So what was wrong with the 4.0L, what did you do with it?

That's a cute MJ Jake. :thumbsup:

Excellent. I've been there twice, both of the times I've ever been to Florida. The first time my family and I watched STS-77 punch outta here, I'll never forget it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STS-77 The second time was 2 years ago on a business trip, had a free day so I used it wisely. Awesome place! You're lucky to work there.

What parts do you need for the closed cooling system? I've got a few of them around for the 4.0L setup. Most people forgo the closed setup and upgrade to the open system...

That truck has been well taken care of, even if it has that little bit of rust starting on it. Someone cared for it or it wouldn't be in that nice of shape! Welcome!

Both of those trucks have the same rear bumper on them, I've never seen that rear bumper before. Must be a fab shop around there that did them up?

Blow-by. Lots of info on it in the "Tech" Section.

Or you could air your tires down to around 8-10 psi. It does wonders, even with stock tires, problem is that you need to air back up to hit the streets or drive VERY easy on the pavement until you get air. We used to wheel in places like this back in Michigan all the time, once we got off the trail the gas station was a few miles away. We usually drove straight there and aired back up.

Lots of us down here by the WI/IL border.

Here they are:

Must be because it has a cargo light and fog lamps... or at least the switches for them.

I've got a set of 5 of those caps cleaned and boxed up, checked them out tonight and they are in OK shape, not cracked or chipped. The "Jeep" is tarnished on a few of them. Didn't count the screws on them, but there's enough screws there to attach them all to wheels for sure. Let me know if you are interested in them and I'll nab some pics. I'd like to see $35 shipped for them. I want to sell all 5 if they go, 1 is no good to me. Thanks, - Brent

Saturdays are good for me. I may be busy the weekend of the 24th, rest of the month is wide open. Looking to buy a set of 5 clean stock 15" x 7" steel wheels, anyone have any? Going to put them on the XJ project.

I think it's just the mount that is different. I've never seen a different version of the actual cross-member.

This IS one great looking truck! It amazes me that you find ways to make it look even better.
