JustEmptyEveryPocket Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 41 minutes ago, Pete M said: sure how to attach it You almost HAVE to find a NOS unit bearing and some NOS lugnuts to mount it with. Bolt the unit bearing to a board, screw the board to some studs in the wall. Mount the wheel to the bearing. Then it can spin free forever!

You must mount it in the wheel well of the nos bed side. I've got a orginial spare from my truck to match it perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a original spare from my truck to match it perfectly I absolutely would if I didn't have the turbine there that I got from Jim Oshel before he passed. It's not nos, but an unused spare from one of his old XJs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchamakalit Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 You need more wall space. The only logical solution is to add on to the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87MJTIM Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Looking at the pictures of your wall, I am reminded of an early M*A*S*H episode were Radar was mail home a Jeep. Just a few more pieces and you can reassemble an MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(side note, the steering wheel isn't NOS, it's just very nice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87 MJ Chief Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I went and looked at some MJ parts at a guy's house. Not only was it on the walls, but he had some of it hanging from screw-in j hooks in the ceiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 this gap always bothered me, but rather than do all the work to move the gate up, I dug through my emblems and stuck some on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted April 2, 2023 Author Share Posted April 2, 2023 I'll happily take any MJ emblem that's missing. I do have the individual J e e P header letters but haven't figured out how to mount them without popping off the studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
