Are you really ever done with an old Jeep? It's running, driving, doing well. All new AC components now, swapped in a 117A alternator.

The interior is pretty much together. I redid the headliner. It came out decent, not perfect at all but, so much better. I need to get the passenger seat cleaned up and installed and the interior will be done other than a few minor screw caps, etc. I put the old blue visors back in for now...

Rewired the door lock relays to be ground triggered and added a parking light relay so that the lights can flash with the keyless entry. The remote start/ keyless entry is installed now. It has a pretty good range. Installed NVX 4x6 speakers in the rear. Have some cheapos to toss in the...

The interior is slowly coming together. Waiting on headliner fabric. It was a real pain fitting all the HO XJ dash to MJ rear adapter harness, all the power window and door lock wiring, and everything else behind the driver's kick panel with the parking brake right there. It's in need of some...

I've got an 89 Comanche that I have HO swapped with the complete drivetrain, harness, heater box, dash, etc from a 93 XJ. The parts XJ I used had a AC compressor installed that isn't correct, it's too long for the mounting bracket. The front two bolts line up, but the rear bolt holes hang off...

Lined the ol girl up last night. Afterwards, I drove her home, first time on the road in 4+ years. Open header was a bit loud, but hoping to have exhaust run soon.

Headlight relay harness is done. All wired into my auxiliary fuse box. For now, the headlight setup is Autopal Ecodes, with Hella 100/80w H4 bulbs. Painted the front bumper, grille and headlight surrounds satin black. Still want a 10 slot black grille. I like the chrome/ black look. Getting...

Another day of work. Starting to see a little light at the end of the tunnel. I made new brake lines to run from the WJ master cylinder to the distribution block. It was a lot easier than I expected. Plus, I managed to remember to put the nuts on before I flared the ends! Then I swapped the...

A few more things done. Heater hoses, radiator hoses, trans cooler lines finished. Filled with coolant and burped. Most of today was spent with wiring. I finished the battery cables, all 2 AWG including a new run to the new fuse box and a mega fuse for the alternator. I have the relays in...

Wheels and tires are on. Adjusted the trackbar finally. I thought about buying new premade battery cables, but figured I'd make my own for a lot less, so I'm running 2ga cable. * I plan on having quite a few circuits that need relays, at least 5 for the low beam, high beam, fogs, low and high...

Like a kid at Christmas over here. New tires arrived! Cooper AT3 XLTs in 32x11 50R15. Wheels are Mammoth Boulder 15x8.

Sounds like you have brake vibration. If you can feel it in the wheel, it'll need either new front rotors or have yours turned.

Test fitting the new wheels. See that nasty header panel trim? I had some chrome pieces lying around that needed somewhere to live. I did rear brake shoes, wheel cylinders and hardware so that I can have a parking brake again. Unfortunately, I had to pull the trans to get to the bottom of...
