Lights, gauges(sport comp), toggle switches, and push button start switch all at pep boys. They have some good stuff. The push to start switch actually is pretty well thought out. You can disassemble it while it's in the dash and clean the contacts without removing the whole switch, or unhooking...

On another noat. I had a conversation with a good friend about crate versus rebuild and cost and I went with crate. He told me just go pull one from a bone yard. Only problem is there isn't a bone yard around that will let me. Damn this online auto recycler crap. It's hard to get some one to let...

I like the SBC for the obvious reasons. Parts anywhere, a million different ways to build one, and readily available knowledge. Plus it's easy to bolt one up to about anything. Lol. Wish I had thought of getting a Chevy driver side drop transfer case to put on it. Would have been way cheaper...

Well I'm not working on much lately. It's 30* furring the day and 10* at night and I don't have anything but a a shed to work out of. Still need to shim the rear axle up some for now and do the center console and shifters. Waiting on better weather.

Photos of the transfer case out put, the mock up driveshaft I made, and the dash panel I'm making for the diamond plate dash and center console. Nothing much. Just auto meter gauges and I have a history ratchet shifter I had sitting around. Gonna mount it just off the dash kick out under the...

Not really well thought out build pics. Didn't think I would be doing a build post. But what the heck. Any questions I'll try and answer. I'll check this every 2 to 3 nights and try and answer them.

Rebuilding the transfer case. Installing the th350 to np231 input shaft and doing the sye for this case. Easy as pie. Also pics of me and my father tearing the old 258 out and the eBay accessories drive I bought.

I snagged a TCI Maximizer 4wd trans and a goodwrench 350 engine from JEG'S and bought a package deal water pump/ alternator / power steering pump with matching pulleys off eBay. The water pump leaked from the back gasket right off the bat. The power steering pump didn't have the right type of...

Re: It's been a few years I think they are out of order. But you get the idea

My poor old YJ was sitting there rusting and looking all sad. I sat there looking at her with a beer in my hand and thought... Why don't I fix her and drive her? Answer. .. The inline six wasn't worth the amount of money to fix it. I know. It sounds bad. Well that and it was a dog with my gears...

A buddie of mine came into a c-j 7 with a fiberglass body and wants to sell manège body for 300$ I'm thinking of swapping my wrangler body for the cj and using the wireing harness too. I have a 88 yj now and im not sure of the cj7 s year. What do you guys think. Do it or don't ??

I actually got a new stock manifold for $63 shipped on eBay. It's a lil Beefier too! Cheap and better. Im not complaining

Convert to a motorcraft carb. You'll get better power and probably better gas mileage. I know I did The swap is well documented in here. Just look for mc2100 carb

Nobody knows? I really don't want to sped a ton of money on a stock part.

Will a 4.0 exhaust manifold fit on my 258 88 yj head? I have an aftermarket intake on it with a motorcraft carb. It's a Clifford intake. If it won't fit .. Why? Thanks guys

Could be that your throttle shaft bushings have worn out. This can happen if you run a heavy return spring or it's just old. You can replace them but you will have to get a rebuild kit.

this ought ta be good :givemebeer:

i hate you ..... just kidding congrats on the great find
