  1. I would definitely check the floors. The doors just don't rust through and nothing else? It's worth what your will to pay. To make it back into a DD is going to take some work for sure.
  2. Nice find!

  4. And because I can't leave good enough alone. I figured out Dorman also makes a replacement. It comes with 2 and 1 of them are correct. PN#20741
  5. I had been noticing a coolant smell coming from the truck. It was losing just a small amount over a long time. Half the pressure tank in 3-4 months. The only thing in the cooling system I hadn't replaced was the radiator. After allot of internet research I decided on CSF. Bought it from Rock Auto $211 to my door. All metal construction and 3 row sold me. I haven't had any cooling issues but added cooling and capacity is always a plus. Yes I did stay with a closed cooling system. No need to fix what isn't broke IMHO. Nice and thick at almost 2" The one I took out was a plastic tanked aluminum. In guessing it has already been replaced once. It's was almost 1.3" thick. The upper support came out nicely it was only missing 3 bolts. Gotta love when the PO strikes again. Added a few zip ties to clean up the wiring while the radiator was out. Found my coolant smell and leak. Took out my mint condenser LOL. I've never seen one just falling apart before. Got new lower isolators. Glad I got them the old ones weren't very rubbery anymore. New upper isolators. $8.33 each from Amazon. Everything came out nicely and went back in just as nice. I also replaced all the missing bolts. No more worries about air pockets. Every tech at work had one of these and they swear by them. $82 Amazon. This thing works awesome. Fits in the Renix tank perfectly. It holds vacuum. Upper hose sucked flat. I did overfill it just a bit. Got it down to perfectly on the molded line in the tank. It's about perfectly centered between full and add. Started her up and everything is good to go. Coolant level never moved. I did figure out I drained about 2 gallons of coolant out. It took almost 3 gallons to fill it with the new radiator. I am overall very impressed with the CSF radiator. The one problem I did run into was the fan shroud didn't want to fit between the fan clutch and the new radiator. I forgot to take a picture of the trimming I had to do before I installed it. This picture sucks but you can see the part I trimmed. No more coolant smell!!

    New guy

    The sooner the better. Welcome to the club and the addiction!!
  7. I don't want to even think about it. I don't want to think about what I have paid for parts. But the hunt is always fun.
  8. That's $300 more than I paid for my truck.
  9. That is an AMC part number.
  10. It looks like you have a Cherokee washer tank there. One pump does the front the other is for the rear on a Cherokee. Comanche should only have a single pump. It should be the one with the metal bracket. This is what mine looks like. Sorry I couldn't get a better picture.
  11. This is cool!!
  12. This truly is an amazing place. Great people and Jeep's what more could you ask for?
  13. Mine was doing the same thing. I replaced it with a truck pump for $6 from Rock Auto and all is better now.
  14. I would like two for Christmas please.
  15. You should definitely do it. When are you ever going to find another 1965 Gladiator?
  16. J truck for sure. I had 4 or 5 Rangers that I never fell in love with. Had a buddy that had a J-10 and I loved that truck.
  17. I drive at WOT regularly I would say. My drive to and from work is a whole 2.4 miles. I drive 1.3 miles to the highway on ramp get up to speed just to stop at the stoplight. Then down the highway for a mile and another stoplight. Left into work from the stoplight. So in no way is this good on gas.
  18. 88 with 4.0 Ba10/5 4.10 gears 31s I've only ever figured it combined and I end up at 14 ish MPG.
  19. DD, truck, toy, and reason to buy more parts.

    Halloween

    I love that commercial!
  21. Looks good! There should have been a version of that rather than the mini console.
  22. I like it!
  23. I have 2 XJ consoles and the original MJ console in my truck. I will compare them and see what all is different. I just know my XJ had the vent and my MJ did not. I also seem to remember the MJ console didn't have the ashtray in the back.
  24. The MJ console doesn't have the vent.
