Haha it runs and drives. I didnt see any rust holes in the floor. Only problem is lost title and in NC its easy to get. And its got a skyjacker lift on it looks like. It is pretty nice for a 91.

Sorry for hijack. I havent even wheeled my Jeep in Uwharrie yet or anywhere but sinking in mud in my yard lol. Love your 2 door bro.

adamk

Haha it's all good man. No hijack here. I may be up in Asheboro sometime this spring meeting up with a few other XJ guys from here and 4x4playground. If so, you should join us. It'll just be a little meet and greet with some rig talk.

FYI Ive done the disk swap on a few XJs now. For the 8.25 or D44 rear which you have you will have to enlarge the tube hole on the backplate using a grinder or something. All the mount holes line up properly however. For the D44 you will need to get a set of TJ rubicon bearing retainer plates. You can order these at any dealership. Or you can look into the teraflex disc kit which includes the plates aswell. you may be able to buy just the plates from teraflex. Lemme know if and when you decide to do the conversion, ill lend a hand.

Good stuff man. I'll definitely let you know. It'll be some time though. I've got to get this track bar issue figured out.

Tylerzap

Sweet! I may be able to come but I doubt it. I dont have my license yet.

But I may be able to. Just tell me when you are coming.

Man hopefully you'll be able to get everything fixed up on her soon, we gotta do some wheeling where it doesn't involve your winch to my front axle lol

adamk

That part doesn't bother me. Just next time, let's have it planned haha.

JRT1393

Sounds good to me haha, I may try to get a few guys together to go next Thursday before I head home for my brother's birthday, just not back that trail, I get stuck every freaking time haha

Well it's spring break so that means I'm working on the Jeep. I got the passenger half door all welded up Sunday. Monday I worked on my uncles rig. Got new steering and a rear locker installed there. Then today I started the bondo work on the passenger door, made the arm rests for the driver door, and did the head light wiring harness upgrade.

sam24th

Looks awesome. i need to get off my *** and finish my half doors aswell.

Sweet man. Question though... how do you open the half doors? I don't see any handles?

adamk

That's where the secret lies....haha

I modified the stock latch for a push rod that will stick up through a hole drilled in top of the rear of the door. It's really simple

Tylerzap

That sounds really cool. Pics? I thought about half doors but was concerned about that.

And btw, I got that 2 Door! Turned out to be a 89. Your will serve as inspiration.

adamk

I can get pics. It's actually very very simple.

Also, I saw your thread on it earlier today haha. I hope everything in here answers your questions but if any arise that you can't figure out, give me a shout on here and I'll gladly help ya. There's a lot of stuff that I've done (mostly smalls) that I don't/haven't documented here.

So I've grown tired of all the road noise that comes along with removing the carpet. So today I went to the local junk yard and found some half way decent carpet in an old two door on the lot. It's got some stains but I've given it a good cleaning, and some floor mats will also help. Also while I was there, I snagged a center console out of a 98 so I can have CUP HOLDERS!! Well, cup holders that aren't in the way of the ebrake. I got everything I need to do the complete swap including the ebrake mechanism. Oh and did I mention all of this only cost me $50? Not bad I don't think.

Also, on a tangent, there are a ****ton of 2 doors at this junkyard. I'd say they have roughly 12 XJs and of those 7-8 are 2 doors.

Anyways, pics of everything will come once installed. Hopefully tomorrow if weather permits.
