Hi Guys, I'm working on a 88 to 98 swap including the interior. I've been reading all the builds to see how folks do the 98 dash mounting but everyone skips this. I plan to drill out the spot welds and move the 98 steel bracket (formed sheet metal behind alloy bracket) to the MJ, but how do I determin proper line-up on the emply MJ firewall? do you just try to measure from some common point? Do any points line-up? Next - How do I determine the location/line-up if the steering colume bracket, etc? I can guess these, but why reinvent the wheel (or dash swap) if someone has a good way to do this. Are any folks using shallow lag screws to mount the bracket to the body sides? I'm a good welder so that part is a non-issue. I'd like to get some folks feed back.. and then when I do it... I'll try to get good pictures to add to my thread for the next guys. Your feed back and tips would be greatly appreaciated! How did you do it & did it work out well?
