Gosh, the most imperfect timing ever! that’s okay, i’m glad you guys are back up in the states already, safe travels and absolutely! Lmk whenever you’re around and we’ll set up a meet!

Actually, thinking about it maybe the easiest thing to do is to just take a quick video of the thing just slowly going around it and focusing on some details by getting the camera up close to it and then just uploading that to youtube, That way we’d have way better image quality and from there i can rewind and pause to just look and reference anything that i’d need to at whichever point, that way i’m not pestering your existence with this or that particular picture!

Oh Yee of little faith, I await the day in which the world shall stop doubting my Hyperfixation! Honestly, they look a little intimidating for sure, but i don’t see anything on them that i won’t be able to easily replicate, your pictures actually made me realize that these things are actually way simpler than what i had thought they were before! I’ve already ordered some new tools to work with aluminum sheets so i can start cranking at this thing, so glad i didn’t place the order for a spot welder since apparently it’s all just rivets, yeah? IF IT’S AT ALL POSSIBLE AND NOT TOO BOTHERSOME some more extra, more up close and detailed pictures of the areas i marked would be beyond incredible and you’d be my hero forever and ever <3 Again, THANK YOU so much for all the help and the info, this has been so productive and helpful already ahaha i was hoping for maybe one or two extra esoteric pictures from far away taken with a $#!&amp;ty smartphone 15 years ago or something, and here i am getting detailed looks!

Oh okay! So even the parts that i circled in blue that i thought were spot-welds are actually rivets? If they are then that honestly makes this build way easier then! yeah measuring the exact thickness on things can be quite hard without the correct tools, but i don’t need exact measurements! Like, would you say the material on the louvers is as thick as a quarter? Slightly less? Slightly more?

@88mjsally you have no clue how grateful i am with you for this, this is amazing!!! Thank you you so much for the pictures, i would have never guessed that’s the way they attached to the window otherwise, i can confidently say that these images have taken me like 90% of the way to understanding how i wanna approach this project, but if you’d be willing to provide a tiny bit more detail on this i will be forever in your debt, honestly those pictures may have been enough but the image compression in this site is quite aggressive, and i think it’d be easier to ask question that to be chasing blurry pixels. my first and biggest question would be about the materials it’s made of and the gauges, i’m 99% certain this is aluminum but knowing how thick the louvers are and how thick the “supports” are would be a game changer! i’ve highlighted here in some images the other questions and doubts that i have, i know i’m pushy and bothersome and that i’m asking a heck of a lot but it would be SO COOL if i could clear up these questions too before i go and start spending money to replicate this things, i’ll repay you in beer and a big heckin’ steak one day i swear!

You’re literally a godsend!!! Thank you yes that would be great! Before you do that also take some pictures of it mounted to the glass so we can see how it attaches onto it if you can! Thank you!

Oh man, just saw this now! i'm in Monterrey and i have a SWB, 4.0, 2wd, 88 comanche that i'd love to see in a picture with yours! we'll get some beers to replace some of the ones Belize took!

Sorry forgot to quite you on the last message so it would ping you about it, i'm so filled with hope that you still have it ohmygosh, if you could provide any pictures of it at all it would be a massive help!

do you still have it? is there a way fr you to take more of them?

Yup, that’s where i got it from! I’m so sad that he never really posted more about such a unique piece, it would have been massively helpful on this…

I'm going to try my best at recreating the Original rear window louvers that were a VERY rare option in out trucks, but despite my best efforts i can only find two pictures of them online, i need as many of them as i can get to try and recreate them as faithfully as i can so PLEASE!!! if you've got any pictures of them please post them here to make this little experiment easier! These are the only two pictures of them that i've got.

I'm intersested! can i send you a PM?

REALLY interested in one of these! Sent you a PM, hope i’m not too late to get one!

Just bought the bosch pump and it’ll get here in a few days, i’ll report back with how much i like it or not, thanks guys!!

Heyo! I’m looking to do this upgrade in my MJ as well but i was wondering if you could elaborate on what kind of mods i’ll have to do to the carrier to accept the DW200 pump? I have an otherwise stock setup for a renix 4.0 aside from the 4 hole bosch injectors that cruiser recommended in his page. Thanks for the time <3
