sweet! Now, as far as swapping in a whole drivetrain from an XJ, (4.0 Asin AW4, NP231, so on and so forth. How difficult would that be?

I have absolutely no experience with MJ's I am very familiar with the XJ though

 

Here's a build where the guy puts a 4.0 into an 86

In 86 there weren't any 4.0s until late 86 when amc started making the 87 models takes some massaging but it can fit

 

Not hard at all.

 

Hey Lee,
When you installed the sliders did you drill into the pinch seam or does the bolts hug into the pinch seam?

 

The bolts "pinch" the pinch seam. You have to install the small plug first to see where to adjust it to touch the outside of the pinch seam. Then you install the larger pinch bolt to the inside of the pinch seam and tighten it with an allen key.

 

Ok thanks, will look into it this weekend

 

Good morning guys

 

Good morning

 

Everyone still alive in here!

 

Yup, the holiday season has always been a slow time at CF.

 

Only until cables turned off.

 

Good morning fellas

 

What's up fellas
Finally fixed the toolbox, I broke the welds off the lid when trying to remove it to put in the plastic Bedliner in....
Tool box installed as well as the liner...
Next week I'm going to start painting the sliders to mount on the Comanche, and install the new steering on there..

 

Got my baby twin for a rental on my trip to my. It's 8 degrees. I'm in Nashville right now and I'm having a blast playing on these roads. This is a 2015
