Fernando87mj Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 Haven’t done much to it , I replaced the two piece sunroof trim with a one piece rubber piece from a newer wj from the junkyard old two piece trim Then this is the newer style one piece seal I also replaced the special quadradrive transfer case fluid. The fluid was really dark and dirty , I’m not sure if it was ever changed before me Since I had bought the Jeep , one thing that bothered me was the way the door panels fit,. I ordered some new clips from eBay and all is good now last thing I did was also replaced the stretched throttle cable that had been bugging me. Luckily I scored this mopar cable for 20$ no picture of the new cable Installed but you get je picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando87mj Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 Now what I have to do now, i still need to: -address the rear pinion seal seepage (sigh) -Fix the leaking trans cooler hose (easy) - Check if it’s the weep hole that’s leaking from the water pump, or if it’s just the lower radiator hose that’s seeping -unclog the hvac drain tube I just detailer her yesterday , and man , it cleans up really good , had to wax that nice blue finish.

Sad thing is I don’t think it wouldn’t of gotten like this If they wouldn’t of filled the inside of the rocker with spray foam seems like this wj is originally from Detroit despite this , she isn’t going anywhere , we enjoy her to much to ever let her go...that and the amount of work I’ve put into it at this point Good thing is they don’t salt Roads in Vegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 you should talk to them and see what they say since they would be the one doing the work. living where you live should provide ample opportunities for clean junkyard rockers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good , I plan on talking to them about it today. I really don’t want to push this back. Despite this little spot this wj is incredibly clean. It’s odd that this is the only spot of rust on the car. Maybe someone at one point took good care of it and all it took was for someone else to let it go. thanks for the advice Pete.

Pete M Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 rockers rot from the inside-out so even if they religiously washed the Jeep, salt could get trapped inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
