I drilled holes into the bed rails. You can use J-hooks that will grab the underside of the bed rails and feed into the box.

NOS 89 4.0 195 Thermostat
fiatslug87 replied to oleskool's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Well I purchased a Crown one from Amazon PN 83501426T and it does not have the pressure relief valve and is a repackaged MotoRad. It’s going back. -
Great decision and thought process!!! They look fantastic with the arm rest in place.

front fender flares flaking away

There shouldn’t be a trim piece between the flare and fender. From my experience, the colored ones tend to do this but the black ones do not. XJ fronts are the same as MJ fronts, look in the junk yards or buy reproduction ones, I think they’re still made by Crown or Omix-Ada but not sure of quality. -

new full taillight assembly coming from Oracle!
fiatslug87 replied to Pete M's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Their literature specifically says “Another option that ORACLE Lighting will offer is Standard or Tinted Lenses. The standard lens option will have a more original OE style appearance while the tinted option will have a more aggressive blacked-out styling. ” -
