mnkyboy Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 Haven't updated in a while, the boy got the 6.5" lift and axles installed, finally got the front one in today. He also worked a deal and bought a 1990 MJ shell with a 4.0l, AX15, and a bunch of other parts that he plans to swap into the 87. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted May 29, 2018 Author Share Posted May 29, 2018 Today we got most of the interior out and pulled the rubber mat out so that we could take a look at the floors. Perfect floors would have been nice but compared to what many people find, i would say it's not too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 is it good enough to just wire wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted May 29, 2018 Author Share Posted May 29, 2018 Most of it is, there's a couple spots in the drivers floorboard that will need patched. I have a pretty good selection of metal working tools/machinery and the boy likes metal shaping so it will be a fun project for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
