PACIFIER Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 Just finished making a set of bed rail armor for a customer (long bed with High Lift mount). :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PACIFIER Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 One of the emergency brake lines locked up (rusted) and wore down the drivers side brakes, so I installed a new set of lines and brake shoes. Other than the engine (135K), I think everything on this vehicle has now been restored. :wrench: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 why not do the disc brake conversion instead? i liked the idea of the bed armor. what was the reasoning behind it? and what do you "do" since he was a customer. if you don't mind my asking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PACIFIER Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 why not do the disc brake conversion instead? i liked the idea of the bed armor. what was the reasoning behind it? and what do you "do" since he was a customer. if you don't mind my asking I personally don't think that disk brakes make that much of a difference on a vehicle that is light weight and is mostly used on road. Cost is one of the main drivers behind the build of this vehicle. In regards to what I do... I work for the Government and build / modify / sale 4X4's as a hobby.

PACIFIER Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 Why not... I decided to replace everything on the front end as well. :nuts: Now I can start working on my buggy again since the MJ is practically all done. :peek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PACIFIER Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Had a great time today testing six months of work on a light trail. The fenders will definitely need to be trimmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the hood and what remains of the tub. :rotfl2: The cable shifter upgrade is the best mod on my MJ. :nuts: Half way done with the rear main seal replacement. All that remains is putting everything back together and filling it back up with some Mobil Uno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PACIFIER Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 Done with the rear main seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PACIFIER Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 You gotta love Jeeps..... I finally found the culprit behind the oil leak after replacing the valve cover, oil filter, and rear main seals. Since everything was dry as a bone, the trail led directly to...... drum roll......... the "Distributor".... Good thing that this is an easy fix.... I will update with pics once I'm done. :banana: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

91Pioneer Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 PACIFIER, those tail lights just look so wrong, but the paint color gave me a hard-on. OK not really but damn that color looks great on the MJ. You don't happen to know the paint code for it, or what the paint color is off of, do you? p.s. Cab vents on the hood...?!? Interesting...

jbain Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I helped work on that truck.... I'm the one who talked him into doing those tail lights. I've only seen pics of them and always wanted a set, but I'd just knock them out on the trail so I talked him into doing a set so I'd get to see them in person. Pics don't do them justice..... you can do interior and front clip but it's still going to look dated in the rear until you get a set of these. I also like how he recessed the license plate in the rear bumper and added an LED light. Glad someone on the board bought this truck...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
