  1. Little 'ol camper doing it's thing Nice!
  2. Wasn't the WJ or V8 ZJ track bar an upgrade over the stock XJ/MJ one? I vaguely remember reading that somewhere.
  3. Something to note. I replaced my floor pan with one from C2C fabrication. They claim "made in the motor city" on all their products. The pan was made in Taiwan by CHL I can't say 100% if it's the same as the keyparts one but it looks very similar. I also grabbed one from advance auto parts. It was another pan made in Taiwan by CHL
  4. Great story! Awesome work! It's great to see all of your kids working on it. Now excuse me while I hunt down a set of phone dial wheels for myself
  5. Whoopse, you mentioned it on the last page. Thanks!
  6. Try this shortened link https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/303775668896259/
  7. Very neat explanation! I did not even realize the load sensing lever was adjustable until someone posted the fork adapter just earlier this week. In some ways I naively discarded my load sensing prop valve when I upgraded to the WJ booster + master, but the amount of mud in the brake fluid and master makes me think it was still a wise choice.
  8. What year Sonoma tonneau cover did you go with? Thanks.
  9. If you look through the forums, you will find that folks have found the build sheets in many areas of the vehicle. The most common are under the seat(taped or stapled to it), under one of the door cards, and under the airbox. Good luck.
  10. I used some clear plastic vinyl from walmart and butyl tape, similar to what @Pete M used. Any walmart that has a crafts section has multiple thicknesses of vinyl. What's nice about the butyl tape is that it's infinitely resealable, as long as the surface is clean. This way if you need to modify or change something inside the door you can just pull off the vinyl sheet and press it back into place and it's good to go. I used a little 1in roller to press the vinyl sheet to the butyl tape. Works a real treat. I'm going to post more about it in my main build page, but I havn't got up to it yet.
  11. In case you were wondering the part numbers for the fender liners are: 55175009 55175008 I have to buy a set myself!
  12. Try using an Ozone machine. My brother purchased a smokers F250. It stank. He left the Ozone machine run for a day and afterward the smell was gone.
  13. Absolutely! I'm just glad the ball-joints, bushings and control arms are still available and affordable.
  14. I just flushed my power steering fluid. Quick blurb about the power steering fluid in case you are interested: The 1988 service manual states the Power Steering fluid for the 88 steering box is AMC# 8993342 Internet says the equivalent mopar# is MS-5931. MS-5931 = gm 9985010. It is clear in appearance, slightly amber on a paper towel. Valvoline 602241 meets gm 9985010 spec. I called up Keene, NH Jeep. mopar# 68218064ac is the current version of power steering fluid for cherokee / comanche. It is called "power steering +4" It contains no ATF. I asked them specifically. You can still get 68218064ac today. I settled on the valvoline 602241. It's been working great so far. I needed 2 quarts to properly flush my power steering pump.
  15. Lookin good! That's a ton of work right there!
  16. Nice work! Definitely bookmarking this for future use
  17. Woah did you make those speaker pods/map pockets from scratch? Lookin pretty good!
  18. Wow That valve cover looks worse than mine and mine had 274,000 miles on the clock! Dang.
  19. Lucky Lucky! I grabbed my hack job one for $100 but it cost me like $100 in fuel to get it
  20. Took it like a champ. #MJsEarningTheirKeep
  21. Excellent taste is contagious
  22. Dang, Did you do the work? That looks exceptionally great! If so, please do a writeup!
  23. This is definitely good news. I'll be keeping an eye out on my mcmaster bushings, but if they prematurely fail I'll swap in the honda ones. So far no issues with my mcmaster-carr 9305K33's!
  24. Hi. I'm debating moving over to a 60mm throttle body over the stock 52mm throttle body. I just recently replaced the exhaust header tube and am not in a rush to replace something I just installed. Is the exhaust modification needed? would be the back pressure be too great with the stock exhaust header tube? Will the engine run poorly in that configuration? Thanks.
