HOrnbrod Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Thought this might be interesting to see what MJ mods you have used from non-MJ vehicles on your MJs. I'm not talking about aftermarket parts/upgrades; I mean mods you've made to your rigs using actual parts from a non-MJ vehicle, like a Taurus fan, XJ/WJ master cylinder/booster, Ford 8.8 axle, etc. Here's my list: Buick steering wheel 2004 Wrangler power steering pump/brackets 2001 XJ intake manifold 1995 ZJ quick ratio steering gear box ZJ V8 sway bar, tie rod WJ lower control arms Mitsubishi CD player and sound system Mercedes W124 ambient temperature display Ford Explorer rear disk brakes 1996 XJ booster and master cylinder Porsche side marker lights Porsche 411 interior lights XJ bucket seats & console XJ power windows and mirrors Dual XJ electric fans Dodge 134A alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimoshel Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 From a 1952 Mack, The bulldog hood ornament and the 2 Mack nameplates on both sides of the hood. Tilt-tele steering column from a '74 Cadillac. Full Stewart Warner instrument package. Modified the tach, 0-8,000 and the speedo, 0-150mph to read double the actual numbers so the needle would be in the upper scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvusse Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I have had a shortened 2wd Toyota drive shaft on mine, but since I mangled it I have a stock 4wd MJ one again. Rear axle is out of a 98 Cherokee. Front axle is out of an 89 Cherokee with 92 Cherokee steering knuckles and brakes. Font shafts out of miscellaneous XJs and ZJs. Front springs are aftermarket Control arms are aftermarket Track bar is aftermarket Front shocks are for some compact car Rear shocks are for a Toyota T100 Rear brake hose is for a 95 Dakota Front brake hoses are for a 95 YJ Rear brakes are from a 97 ZJ Shackles are meant for a Chevy Gauge cluster is from an 89 Cherokee Old front bumper was from a Cherokee Limited, current one is aftermarket. Diver side door from a Cherokee Both front fenders from a Cherokee Header panel and all parts that go with it are from a Cherokee Air filter box out of an XJ Topper I believe is for an S10 (was one it when I bought it) I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff.
