Is the swapout guage plugs the same as the 91-96 guage? Was thinking of adding the dash of a 2001 in my 1991.

No the are different.You should stay within the 91-96 range and just change to a cluster from those years,And just find a better looking dash if you dont like yours,http://www.baeta.org/opie/Gauge.htm

Default Grand gear shift and 91 airbox
I went to the Jy today and got a GC auto gear shifter,I thought it would be cool to have a beefier handle on it.Sooooo it did not fit at first,you can see the difference in the length.So I just chopped a lil off with a hack saw and it fit perfect,feels much better in your hand and should be a lil tougher too.Then I got the air box out of a 91 Xj.These have about a 3"extension on the front that extends up to just behind the drivers side headlight(unlike on my 97)I also took out that stupid dust cover behind the headlight too,this should help her breathe a little better (cone filter in the box too)

Got my TB spacer today and installed it,dont know about increased hp and mpg but for sure has better throttle response!Maybe because it changes the kick down cable a little bit or something in the throttle cable angle is different not sure but it made me smile when I romped on it

VERY glad you went with a semi-flat black. Must say that is the best job i've ever seen on painting a set of stock wheels....looks like theyre supposed to be that way
