Not yet our friend at the body shop called us just before we got ready to take it and told us he had Wu-flu. Then after he got over that then we got dumped on with snow and could not get to the car trailer. Now that the snow is melting we are trying to get together.

I have had a tool like that for a couple year at work. They work great. The only down side of ours is you can only run it for 30sec then let it set for 30sec and so on. Well worth the money

Might be looking for some licensing money?

Interior colors/paint
Chad R replied to eaglescout526's topic in MJ Tech: DIY Projects and Write-Ups
I think I might have a update on the garnet color interior. I picked up a real garnet door panels for my truck and firethorn is way to bright. So I started looking and found napa red ( sem 15273) which is to dark, but with a firethorn base and a mist coat and one light coat of napa red it come out pretty close. In the picture firethorn is on the right and my mix paint is on the left. -
Yes it was sold at a IAA auction. I had a friend pull the car fax on it. From what i can tell it spent its whole life in Norfolk Virginia area went to auction and ended up at Daveys Jeep’s in Ohio and then to Michigan.

We are going to body shop next Saturday to get pulled. Will get pictures up hopefully next Saturday night if everything falls into place

So far so good. I attached it by threading on the out side of the rubber boots, the original one threaded on to inside of rubber boots. Literally took 10 minutes to do it.

This is my 2nd one I have had the first “overgrown outhouse” saved me probably about $18k and this outhouse in the last 4 years is about $7k.

Yes it heats the water and is pumped into the house. It goes to a heat exchanger in my furnace. I also heat my hot water with it so I can turn off water heater. So winter months I don’t have very much of a gas bill The gas company comes out every year to check meter because they think it’s broke.

In side stoves are nice, but I hate the wood mess inside and cleaning the ash out. This is what I have.

I was told for what it’s worth that they dropped that color because of the sun glare reflecting off the dash onto the windshield. Not sure if that’s the truth but most I have seen have gray interiors .

Yes I have. My mom had bought a brand new grand Cherokee larado shortly after they came out in 93. The exterior was dark cherry red and had red interior. Never saw another red interior in one since. Was told that half way there production in 93 they quit that color interior, I don’t know.

I am running savvy’s arms on my daily. I was hesitant with the aluminum arms but figured if it’s good enough for king of the hammers it’s good enough for me.

OC Autocarpet weather strip door kits
Chad R replied to Car Enthusiast's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Got the floor pans done so I got around to opening the box finally. I have not installed the weather stripping yet but have test fit a few peaces and it seams like it’s all going to fit good and it feels like it’s decent quality -
Nothing better than garnet interior and exterior in my meaningless opinion

I don’t want to be a downer hear but that tool looks like something that is in the $4.99 bin at the discount parts store where it belongs.

There is nothing better looking than a early mj or xj dash all lit up at night.

It would be interesting to hold up the firethorn painted door panel to that one

Is that door panel garnet? Just curious.

It’s a long boring story. I will give highlights. Dad bought a new 86 when I was 6 years old , road everywhere in it and did lots of fun stuff in it. I got it to be my first car in 1997 drove it till 2001 when I traded in on my wrangler. WORST thing I ever did spent the last 15 years looking for one just like the one I had and couldn’t, but found one close to it.
