Those look good.

Are those welded underneath? The purpose of this is to.....

The safe way is to pull the cluster AND the speedo cable from the donor jeep. That way you know you wouldn't have a problem.

That wire just won't go away......

Are these a 15 x 7?

This is a beautiful truck. I'm glad you were able to get it back. It sounds like a truck anyone would like to have, along with the memories.

X eleventy billion!!! I love the rims!! My all time favorite Jeep wheel.

My truck looks like this almost every Saturday heading to the "dump". If I can't burn it, it gets hauled off.

That sounds good.

Anybody got any suggestions on a date to meet up?

I have XJ seats in mine, I’m just missing that headrest. Not sure why or how but that’s how it was when I got it. If you can get it, I’d take it but don’t go out of the way for it. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a great haul!!!! Man do I need a headrest like this to match the one I have. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Santa came early or late, I guess it depends on how you look at it. New lock cylinders. New wiper stalk. New outside lighting. New inside lighting. New inside trim pieces. Keep in mind “new” means different things to different people.[emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought it had an internal regulator, no?

I missed this last night. I will check all the others and see if any are damaged because I'm not sure.

Well, this was another bad morning for the MJ. When I left the house this morning the Volt gauge was a little low but I figured with the fog and the dampness it was still good to go. I got a couple miles from the house and the gauge had dropped to 9 and was playing in the red area on the gauge. I stopped and check the battery cables and the wires to the alternator and I couldn't find any issues with them so I turned around and headed back home, turning off everything I didn't have to have. I'm guessing the alternator is gone but I will need to test it to make sure. As far as the fuse issue from last night, I didn't do anything else to the truck but pull that fuse then put it back in the block, so what are the odds that that had anything to do with the alternator???? I'm guessing none???? If I do need an alternator any suggestions on which one? I'm not a fan of the rebuilt ones at a box store. I do have a local guy that can rebuild it that has always done a good job but the time frame isn't desirable. Thoughts?

I’ll start at the back and work my way forward. Thanks for these schematics. I’ll use them to find the problem.....hopefully. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was able to check the fuse and even though the fuse is technically good meaning current will pass through it, the power side socket is burned up. Almost gone. There is enough left that the fuse does make contact but it can’t be good. I blew the image up so it’s not the clearest. How in the world to I fix that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

10-4. I got a new rear harness, thanks 500 MJ, because the PO hacked into the existing one to run trailer lights but I haven't had the chance to put it in. The "hack" job may be the culprit. The only rear lights affected are the reverse lights, all other lights work as they should.

This could be the case but the lights haven't worked since I got the truck. Do they originate here? Good question, of hand, I don't know. I will check and see though. I take it that power to the lights runs through this fuse?

I didn't get much done yesterday but I was able to "refresh" the ground behind the driver tail light and even ran a jumper wire down to the frame. I do have an issue with the reverse lights, the issue is, I don't have any. The bulbs are new on both sides but still nothing. I'm not even sure where to start. The NSS is good in the fact that the truck won't start in drive or reverse. Do the reverse lights originate there or somewhere else?

This looks like it will work and I wouldn't have to swap radiators. Thanks!!

Good idea. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
