Wasn’t doing much with my 88 Olympic edition but taking it to shows, but this weekend I got a 87 short bed and had a chrome bumper so switched it out with my standard one. Thought it would look nicer taking it up to Butler Jeep event next weekend. Anyone else going? Will take pics of the 87 and register it in here. Got to wait till rain stops here in northeast and get basic details I'd love to head down to the Jeep festival as it's just over an hour away from where I live. However I've got big plans this weekend installing solar panels. The Olympic edition is looking great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most years I do make way down to Pittsburgh for the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, I like taking the Comanche to the show as it has AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bezerk1 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Well good luck with the solar panels. If you get done early the Barbie jeep race starts at 7. That’s always a good laugh and it’s free to spectators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex06 Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Got a steal of a deal I couldn't pass up. Brand new Clayton long arm kit for $700. I was skeptical of what difference it would make in the ride, and Holy cow did it make a big difference. Side note: I'll have a short arm setup with a drop bracket up for sale soon 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatslug87 Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Added Laredo molding modified for my SWB ‘88 Pioneer. Had the molding Line-Xed when they did the bed, also a little inlay with repainted full size Cherokee emblems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolwind57 Posted Monday at 03:31 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:31 PM PICS: Today, I installed a Bosch coolant temperature gauge. My 89 has the standard idiot lights and after replacing my engine last year, I didn't want to rely on idiot lights anymore. And I didn't want to do a whole dash instrument swap. Placed the gauge in the slot where the old transmission rocker switch was....it was disabled (and useless anyway). I built an engine last year and I used a later model 7120 cylinder head, so I had to use the non-Renix water neck during my build. Since I'm still running the Renix system, I had just plugged the right port of the water neck. Perfect place for a new instrument Temp Sensor! The Bosch sensor was very long, so I had to add a coupler and close nipple. Part store didn't have brass, so I used Galvanized iron pipe. Sure is nice to see where I'm at temperature wise now. By the way, when I built my engine, I was so paranoid that she'd have some sort of oil pump issues at start up/initial break in that I installed a mini pressure gauge near the distributor. It was worth the effort and expense to see that I had good pressure during that initial start up. I left it on. Not really useful anymore unless you have the hood up of course and want to periodically check oil pressure. But anyway, I thought I'd snap a pic of that too for you while I was in there. I have thought of doing the fuel rail gauge. I may look into that later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
