Custom interior and dash?

hit up a junkyard and strip a cherokee? :dunno:   the seat floor brackets are unique to MJs, but Brandon makes new ones. 

That's looking like the upcoming plan.  It's going to be interesting getting something to bolt on, might have to make a whole new bolting system.  I'm not opposed to that either, I could weld some bolts to the floor to hold it down.

I think the same exact way as you do. Why buy something when I can make something cheaper at home. Sometimes, especially in the MJ world, its easier to buy something already made than spending a week, weekend or who know how long on something custom when a bolt in option is around. Plus if you drill into the floor and suddenly the rust, if any, just sneaks in and makes a mess, then youll have to patch it along with your custom work. Just helping ya foresee possibilities.

I hear ya, this thing is more of a play toy and to enjoy messing around with then it would be to get completely street legal.  But I'll see what I can come up with out of a junkyard

i have dash for the vin title street able-bodied thing. i however do not need the ac or broken heater box so can pull that as that just added weight and more room to mount another battery, or speakers :shaking:  or hell just extra leg room :grinyes:, or perhaps air intake...:shhh: either way just run my own gages for oil, volts, rpm, maybe a coolent temp one... then thats another less 10 lbs in unneeded fire hazard wiring..then install dual battery set up :thinking: and wiring my lights and switches and have them how i like and where i like. found a junk truck tool box so i reckon i just cut a full dash face out of it being aluminum and all. then since its this roomy i might as well add some cage work and you know.....:rolleyes:

 

idk just run it or restore it. :slap:
