Lund Visor
Any chance you have a part number on the visor?
I see a lot of them on ebay and CL but no reference to what part number would fit my 91.
One guy has one on ebay and states that it is part 12003 and should fit 87-98 GC, Cher or Comanche.
Makes it hard to look when you don't have any idea if it could have fit other vehicles.
Working on my turbines as you described, taking forever but slowly coming together.
Thanks

So I have collected all the lift parts...almost. It is not the original plan, but I will upgrade to the original plan as I go.
For now, this is what I have
IRO track bar
Rustys 3" Coils and 3.5" Leafs
RE Adjustable UCA
Crown Adjustable LCA
Home Brew BPE's all the way around
Doetsch Tech DT8000 Prerunner Shocks
MJ Shackles.....1/2" Leveling block
1.75" Spacers
Chevy C1500 brake lines up front
Dakota brake line out back
Homebrew BEEFY Motor Mounts
Homebrew (Dukie) disconnects
bunch of other crap...bumpstops...etc etc
1.25" Spidertrax spacers to run my turbines
Still to get: Saving now to buy a buddy's (NewKindOfClown) axles. an 8.8 and D30 geared to 4:10. LSD in the 8.8
IRO Double Shear Conversion
Dana30 TruTrac
Then tires....
I WILL be ready for Icebreakers at Big Dogs in April!
I have a lot more plans than this...but this will get me out on the trail.

Waited till after Christmas to do parts....and I changed my list...lol
Picked up tools on Black Friday and in between, watching deals. !6 piece flex head ratcheting Gear Wrench wrenches, over 100 piece Craftsman bit set, and a Kobalt 255 piece pro mechanics tool set. All said, under $200 total.
So the new list....
SYE, full
http://www.extremeterrain.com/rugged...yj-186766.html
$159
Double shear conversion
http://www.ironrockoffroad.com/Merch...egory_Code=PFX
$89.99
Shackles
http://www.rustysoffroad.com/jeep-su...able-pair.html
$59.99
Low Profile Shackle Relocation Boxes
https://froehlichsuspension.3dcartst...-Kit_p_22.html
$120
$428.98 total.....
Just picked up some DT 8000 PreRunner shocks from a buddy too, pretty cheap and brand new...thanks Fritz!
Picking up a second set of wheels (may run on/offroad sets of tires)....halfway here...just have to arrange pickup.
Axles are on hold...in my possession, but turns out the 8.8 has a bent tube...currently researching my options to then possible renegotiate price based on findings. To my buddy's credit..he noticed it and pointed it out.
So the parts are coming together. April Icebreaker is starting to look like a very hard goal.

Funny story....wanna see if anyone else has ever done this....
So...in the back of my wife's jeep I had 3 bottle of coolant and water....part of the Jeep tool kit....
So I am parked behind her, and just doing a fluid check on mine. Can't quite tell if my coolant is full, so go to grab one of the bottles out of the back of hers just to top it off....
Start pouring....now why is this antifreeze so thick? OH ****!
10w-30 straight into the radiator. You see, I run Amsoil, not the cheap ****, but apparently from long ago, it was sitting in the back of my wife's jeep, and Advance Auto coolant and oil gallon jugs are identical except the label.
So....about 1 or 2 ounces of oil got in....no biggie...nicely lubed coolant system.
Anyone else ever make a bonehead move like that?
Spent yesterday flushing multiple times, and refilling....helped flush the heater core a little more too and now I have better heat, so there is the silver lining.

LOL. The wife of a buddy of mine accidentally poured power steering fluid into the master cyl of a Bronco they used to own. He and I replaced everything except the steel lines and combi-valves. I'd take a couple ounces of motor oil in the radiator than go through that mess again x-|
