dasbulliwagen Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Finally after many months, I got around to adjusting the electric fan controller to turn the fan on at the correct temperature and turn back off. When I first installed it it would come on at 160 and stay on, now, it comes on between 210-215, and shuts off between 190-195. Let me know if you guys don't think this is right, but seems right to me. Its in my 87 2.5.
Pete M Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 fired them up and puttered the fleet across the parking lot (pushed the 88).
HKB3 Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 drove it for the first time in 2 years, got the AX-15 swap finished finally
landlubber Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 split the ax15/np231 for diagnosis of ax15. got hella stuck in mud.
ComancheKid45 Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 Took Pics :cheers: Check my build thread viewtopic.php?f=7&t=11644&start=60
Lenard Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Gave it a really good bath. for the last 4 months our roads have not been gravel roads but mud roads. :fs1: id almost forgot what color my truck was. :( also found out my aux. fan is just about ready to give up the ghost. :grrrr:
comanche09 Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Installed HiCountry Extreme front tow hook w/ shackle kit. That was a kick in the nuts... Installed 97+ front fenders and header panel.
jeepcoma Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Put my MT springs to good use and stuffed the bed full of bricks. Engine didn't even feel the load but the body sure did, now I'm ordering new bushings all around!
deziped Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Replaced the w/s wiper mechanism bushings. What a rip off on plastic parts. Cost $13.32 local off the HELP rack, had there been an Advanced Auto Parts store around here I could have got them for $4. On line they wanted $3.69 plus 11.75 S&H. Now I have 3 new bushing left out of the kit that fit on 82-2000 Nissan. Send me $3 and I'll send them to anyone that can use them.
Squeegy410 Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 finally fixed my floor rust :yes: :yes: :yes: it was urgent so i couldnt get pics, but it flooded in TN and i drove into a couple feet of water due to fog :doh: now ive got nice clean carpet and nice painted floor and seat mouning brackets
mvusse Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 Last night (but it was today when I came home) I washed the inside of the windshield with water and a rag, then windexed inside and out and sprayed all the mud out of the bed. Then I went to the drive in to watch Ironman 2. Wasn't sure if we wanted to sit on the cab or the bed, but with the impending thunderstorms we chose for the cab.

That's cool, the last drive in closed here in Feb.
AMCJeepMJ Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 Moved it behind the Escape so I could get the Accord (that I never drive and has been sitting in the garage for almost two years with only 44 miles put on it during that time) out of the garage to sell. It sold after being listed on local CL for only 17 hours at $1400. Now I'm down to only three vehicles for the first time in many years. 90 Aerostar went last week, and the 93 Accord went today. $2400 to make the next two and a half months worth of mortgage.
HKB3 Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 crappy iPhone pics next up: replace rear window(got one at the junkyard yesterday) rust repair axle swap/lift new tires
Geonovast Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 Love the wheels! Hopefully eventually when I get an MJ going again, I can get some decent tires on my set and get'm on something.
jeepcoma Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Went for a drive with the swaybar endlinks repaired and connected. Wow what a differnece!
AMCJeepMJ Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Filled the tank, took it to work, and then to the DMV on the way home to pick up some snazzy new retro-60s themed Pacific Wonderland license plates for the Buick. Lookie like this 'un: Limited run of only 40k statewide, and when they're gone they're gone.
dasbulliwagen Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Was informed yesterday that my 86 Mj project vehicle will need to be moved soon from its parking place behind the dealership, so this weekend it will get dragged back in the shop so I can swap the front axles between it and my 87 to continue the 4x4 conversion. I also need to bolt the rear axle back in the 86 as it is curently sitting unbolted over axle out in the parking lot. And the front axle isnt sitting on any springs so it is resting on the bumpstops with its azz in the air! I will be putting my 87's beam axle in the 86 with a set of JK springs Ive had laying around just to see what happens. This truck is too rust free to junk, so Ill have to go begging again to see if I can park it next to the recently aquired 86 Cherokee.
ComancheKid45 Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Swapped out my leaky Coolant pressure bottle..... Wondering if I should be jumping on an oppertunity for a parts truck to just keep around :dunno:
CWLONGSHOT Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 Last week I had to "whip" my MJ a bit.. Tacked it up and burnt a plug or three... She got some NEW PLUGS, a CAP and a ROTOR!! The plugs where not aweful.. but the cap n rotor was shot!!! CW
