89 budget build

[sneakyjap96]

I'll be sure to do that! But in the mean time I used this as a reason to buy an aftermarket gauge. Found an auto meter electric gauge for 35 bucks so I jumped on it! Thanks for the advice tho much appreciated

[sneakyjap96]

Loving amazon prime thanks jon for the heads up!!! Now to weld her up!!

Make sure the cat has correct numbers on it. The test station will look it up on the web, and it has to be right..... double check. I had issues with mine

 

[sneakyjap96]

The walker manual shows the 89 cherokee so I'm a hoping for the best.. I googled the numbers and if gave me a bunch of info.

 

[sneakyjap96]

Made my self a gauge/switch plate just have to wire it all up and start running wires threw the jeep

 

[XJensen]

That switch panel looks nice

 

[sneakyjap96]

That switch panel looks nice

Thanks it was a fast design/make next one I'll take my time on and perfect I'm actually going to make one for my buddy's xj.

Sorry to rehash... You said the Walker manual said it was an 89 cat. But was it an 89 California cat? I know that Rockauto is pretty specific about what is and what isn't cal legal cat's, and the smog stations look pretty closely to make sure too, like Twinhauler said. Hopefully you got the right one and it'll pass with ease. Good luck

 

[sneakyjap96]

Yes it's California legal it's actually called a cal cat made by walker
