I run the iron man mounts. I love them. Zero issues. They are beefy, and andy is a great person to deal with

if it is wet and sticky, wouldn't leaving the holes in the floor be a good idea? Or is the moisture coming in those holes? I once punched holes in the floor of an old stationwagon because to facilitate cleaning, all I had to do was turn the hose on in it. The water drained and the carpet and floor seemed cleaner as a result. But, I live in the desert. My suggestion to you is yes, but not bondo, use the JB Weld. It tends to be more removable, easier to apply, less expense, easier to work with, etc., than any other prep. Use a back-guard of some duct tape, working the filler in. Reverse the process to make your application from both sides, under and interior. If your carpet is musty, fill a large container with water . . like a rubbermaid tub . . add 1/2 cup bleach, 1/4 cup if you worry about discoloration . . . and soak for 20 minutes. Hang outside to dry. It won't discolor the carpet and will kill the culprit of musty odor.

I'd stick with a tried and tested brand like brown dog or iron man fab. Brown dog is gonna be a easier install and will last but Andy's (iron man fab) stuff is always pure beef and will last! Im running brown dogs and love em but im also running Andy's TB and can attest to his well crafted parts.

I'll post this on your comment but it's for the original poster that was curious about the TB. Was too lazy to go back one more page and find it :shrug:
Thanks

Yea I seen that before. I don't really want to buy one. I want to do it myself. Mainly because I have my 99, my 91 and my dads 96. That'd be 3 throttle bodies. Plus whatever I get in the future lol.

But I was actually looking at his thread last night. He says ~60mm, or about 60mm, I'm gonna pm him. But that sounds like it might just be bored to 58mm. 58mm is what I've read the top of the throttle body is, bottom is 55, so if he went to 60mm how would the stock butterfly still work?

Going to the JY in a couple hours. Getting one one in my hands to look at might clear some things up.

Thanks, i checked those and everything seems to be pretty solid. Since then ive heard of the transfer case chain getting loose. Could this be a possibilityconsidering when it does it? Keep in mind that this is happening in 2WD.
