MiNi Beast Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 be putting D60 internals back together, mess with CB and try to figure it out and get it working, and hook up new 12v plugs in the truck. Have to start early going to be a long day. I think I may need to go get coffee now. :yes:
1tonMJ Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Got it stuck in the snowbank in the end of the driveway. Took the other car to my interview. Came back and dug it out.
AMCJeepMJ Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 New clutch, new slave cylinder, gear oil changed to synthetic, and having flywheel resurfaced. bah! $$$! This is going to cost me as much as the purchase price of the truck. I'd do it myself but no time and its gotta get back on the road.
Herc Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Went ou tto start mine yesterday morning, no start had to drive 94YJ into work. Bro'in'law picked up a starter for me and i installled last night in my driveway -12 :Canadaflag: fired right up after. drove it into work today :banana:

deziped Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Finally got around to replacing the NSS on the AW4 (had a spare laying around) so that the reverse lights work again. The switch was working internally, but, no juice was exiting on the brown & white wire. I think the wire is broke under all that resin sealing the switches back side. I'll find out tomorrow when I chip all the resin out to see whats really inside that thing. If it only needs a little solder I'll have a spare switch again.
AMCJeepMJ Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Washed it! Hooray for crappy cell phone pics!!! Almost 55 today and sunny, so it was perfect January weather to do it. Washed the Escape, too. And hosed down the driveway to get all the cinder off it.
comanche12 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 got new sets of screws for my taillights and universal lamp for my license plate. :clapping: no more star (trox?) screws on my taillights! :banana: also just got offer letter in email that i got job! :banana:
Mongo Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Bled brakes, discovered my axle seal is leaking badly on the left rear side. Bummer. guess i will be getting a new axle. (can't spell tonight)
comanche12 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 CONGRATES!!!! :cheers: Brandon thanks but I'm still looking for full time job, the recently job that I got hired is more like side job. you can check it out http://www.autoshoponwheelz.com
MJRemi Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Picked up a D44 rear (XJ) and now need to get it cleaned up, inspected, modified, and mounted. Also switched out shift lever on the AX15 to have better ergonomics.
shelbyluvv Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 I built some brackets to lower the engine an inch on the passenger side and 1 1/2" on the drivers side. The engine was sitting off center about a half inch and the air cleaner was hitting the hood. Let's all hope that it is enough for the air cleaner to clear the hood. The hood was just barely touching the very front edge of the air horn.
Herc Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Rewired the front marker lights and headlights so they work now. :jump: Had Rear tailights and functioning signals but no front marker lights, then me low beams went on me :wall: s'okay though it was two wires corroded/broke off at the big black connector on the drivers side behind headlight.
COMJNUT Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Went from the single core radiator to a 3 core and while there was a gaping hole in the front with the radiator out, I decided to change the water pump...it makes it really easy. Also got the ultra star wheels from the 5.9ZJ on it, it looks better to me: Better shot:
ComancheKid45 Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Finally picked myself up an SWR meter, I can finally work on fine tuning my CB Antennas :wrench:
deziped Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Hacked on the old NSS today to see why its considered non repairable. Well you can't melt the resin covering the back, the wires under the stuff burn first. You can't chip the stuff out as tapping on it cracks the black plastic case easily. I doubt that you could grind the covering on the back off with a dremel without cutting into some of the six wires encased with the resin as their spread through out the stuff. Conclusion: It's to time consuming to mess with it, just trash can it and get one at the JY. Oh, as I suspected when I swapped it out a couple days ago, it did have a broken blk/wh wire in the switch about a 1/4 inch into the covering on the back.
STERLING STINGER Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 thats a fancy spiral you got in the grill what is that???
