Anyone have a good condition 2 spoke steering wheel? With the non-vinyl or Shiney horn button

I'm gonna try the adhesive first, but if it comes to it I'll just tack weld. Not like I really care about the paint haha

Getting close to firing this thing up.

Alright thanks guys. I'll pick some up and give it a shot

So my hood bracing has separated from the skin, assume it was part of my accident. I'd really like to keep this hood. Seems like it was an epoxy they used to secure it. Anyone have recommendations for some strong stuff?

I have the wilwood kit. It was pricey but the jeep stops incredible since I've installed it. I was going to go the DIY route but honestly for 1k I felt it was just easier to get the kit instead of tracking down so many parts. Wilwood was bolt on, maybe 2 hours

More progress. Alternator wouldn't fit with the factory steering box so went with a borgeson unit from a full size chevy car. It's super tight but it'll work, and it's a quick ratio box so it should be nicer. Swapped out the camaro supercharger lid for a cadillac one. Hood is so close to making it shut with no cutting. Gonna try some hood spacers and hope it works. Got the front end finished from accident repair. I was worried about the integrity of the front crossmember with it being all bent so I skinned it with some 3/16 plate. Should be way stronger now. Also upgraded to a really nice relay and fuse box so once again redoing all the wiring in the engine bay.

Damn...

Nope. Dual clutch from monster clutch out of Texas. 700hp rated.

More progress

I got a really good deal on an iron block so unfortunately no aluminum. I'd love a 6.2 but it's gen 4 and my ecu is for a gen 3 and I don't really want to shell out another 1500+ for it. All the supercharger stuff is so pricey.

Both. Engine out makes fixing the crossmember easier and I'm going to a 6.0 now.

Slowly but surely. Need this weather to break and daylight to last longer.

Put me down for a classic cowl hood! I know you're good for it. Glad it's working out dude.

More progress

Bought the 91-92 sender unit and also got a different aeromotive pump. Same one just with a different inlet configuration. Honestly it looks exactly like a mid 90s cherokee pump so I also ordered a cheap factory one to get that special rubber boot it uses. I'm hoping with all these parts it'll be a near factory fit now. We'll see once everything comes in.

Yeah, I already have your set up screenshot haha

Looks like the MTS unit for the 91-92 has a top bracket. Might grab that one. I'll be using a programmable fuel gauge so ohm doesn't matter.

Nope thats exactly what I have. I bought it probably 2 years ago when they ran production just to have a spare one. I have my factory one and it's in alright shape but I wanted something fresh for this build.

Trying to adapt an aeromotive fuel pump to my factory sender. Currently have a MTS JPSU-6 brand new sender and an aeromotive 340 pump. Just curious what other people have done. Size is very similar to stock. The MTS sender doesn't have the top retainer so I assume the hose just holds it?

Long shot but looking for some deflecta shield bug shield mounting brackets.

It's got these funky brackets that bolt to the header panel and come out between the stainless trim and grill. 2 out of 3 got pretty crushed in the accident so I have to try make some.

More greatness. NOS bug shield still in the box.

@OffGridResearchcame through big time. Two of the best parts of the jeep are crossed off the list now. Just need some warmer weather so I can work on this thing.

My original plan was to pull it all out like that with something to anchor but that hydraulic ram worked like a charm.
