Glenn Moyer Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 The tail lights were pretty hazed up from the sun so what I did was got some fine grit polishing compound and hand rubbed them until they looked real clear. It's easier if they are off the truck that way you can lay them in your lap. It's a lot easier on you shoulders! Buff off the compound. Masking tape the lense part of the light. Take your time and keep a nice sharp edge. Trim with a razor blade. I took a fine grit sandpaper and scuffed up the part I was going to paint and shot a thin coat of primer. When that dried, I sprayed 2 coats of satin black paint. Pretty simple, and they came out like new tail lights! I thought they really added to the back of the truck.

Glenn Moyer Posted July 18, 2011 Author Share Posted July 18, 2011 Trying to find some good ideas for the rear bumper build. Thinking about using 4X2 steel tubing laid flat with a top and bottom rail. Top being longer than the bottom, cut on a wedge shape. Swear I saw one like that on here, but can't seem to find it again. Think it was a red MJ. Anybody with ideas would be appreciated! Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Moyer Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm looking to make this truck a 4X4. What should I look for in a cherokee to get me started? My truck is a 2.5 with a 4 speed manual. Would a transfer case off a 4.0 automatic bolt up, or should I just srart looking for a parted out 2.5 4X4.

Glenn Moyer Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 A friend of mine gave it to me. He works in maintenance at a place that does work for the government. He brings me leftover fabric that's ends or stuff that they are done using. Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
