  1. Sounds like the beginnings of an excellent project! In case you were wondering what the rest of the sheet looks like, I scanned mine a few months back when I found it behind the passenger side door card. Now to just finish documenting my build lol https://salvagedcircuitry.com/docs/build-sheet.jpg
  2. Excellent work! Looks like one helluva journey!
  3. Before you go further, do you have a spare throttle body gasket? Since the throttle body has not been removed in a while, it will pull the gasket off and likely tear it. The renix 4.0L throttle body is only held on by those 3 bolts. If you have a spare gasket, just twist the throttle body slightly or just tap it with a rubber mallet and It'll come right off. You'll end up having to scrape off the old gasket from both surfaces.
  4. Sounds like an all around excellent adventure. Excellent job
  5. I just finished flushing the old grease from my wiper motor gearbox, added new grease and a separate ground. The performance is identical to before the work. I have the non intermittent wiper stalk. Does anyone know if the gearbox gear ratios changed on the new gearbox vs old? Seems like I wasted 2hrs and should have just purchased a 97+ motor.
  6. Woah. I see one of these hoses still on rockauto, but the other is non existent. Interesting
  7. Aww yeah, nothing like scanning in 4x6's! Thanks for uploading this
  8. Yeah, this is likely why my blazer / s10 cargo B-pillas lights both come on when only one is switched. They are wired as a direct connection. Neither light has a back flow protection diode. I'll have to solder each one up in my next round of repairs.
  9. Holy moly dude, you may be the one and only comanche driver who has driven near ancient ruins. This is the right kind of bonkers!
  10. I can feel the arm cramps just looking at that much prep work. Nice job!
  11. That's genuinely cool. I wish there were still stores near me that carried electrical components :/
  12. You have an incredible eye for roll bars! The legend continues: $50 --> $100 --> $150 --> ..... I have a friend in Rome nearby but I doubt he'd be interested in picking it up. Shame shame.
  13. Digikey and mouser are excellent sources for caps. I bet most of the ones used could have been found at radioshack but alas. Microcenter carries capacitors now which is awesome if you are near one.
  14. Glad to see you back. Take as much time as you need, we'll be here
  15. Hell yesss! Excellent update. I'm glad you are able to keep rolling and the AW4 carried you through
  16. Beautiful truck! You even have the cargo light! Jealous!
  17. Wowzers! That's crazy. What an adapter.

    I have had a lot of good luck with Kody's parts Emporium. Also, there are several great jeep ebay sellers. jeepcemetery, Timbukthree and romi_2671 to name some. There are a lot of parts that make a vehicle. I've had some success asking ebay sellers for a specific parts and they have occasionally had it but it was not listed on ebay yet. Also, the folks on here are great. I've purchased many parts off guys here and the wanted thread helps. It looks like some sale pages are old, but folks tend to respond frequently to messages. Good luck!
  19. Nice work! This exact same thing happened to my dad a little more than 2 decades ago on his 89 XJ. The window went down just fine, but if you rolled it down all the way it would not come back up. He guessed something stripped at the end of the window's travel. His solution was incredibly simple: a 2x4. He screwed in a 2x4 inside the door frame from the bottom side. The 2x4 was cut just enough that the window rolled down 95%. The window would never go down all the way but who cares, it would come back up every time, avoiding the damaged part of the window travel. This questionable fix lasted for 15 years until my brother, who inherited the XJ, replaced the door for other reasons. Hats off to you for fixing it the right way!
  20. Thanks! Going to experiment with this on the underside live you did
  21. No I don't think it's you, I think the forum has an issue with uploading and embedding videos. I think it embeds from youtube fine
