Important

do a WJ seat swap. wheeling in the comfort of a heated ass would be sweet!
That reminds me there is a 01 limited on my local craigslist up for part out. Heated leather on both sides, and i would assume power. FWIW the limited XJ seats are are much more comfortable than the cloth ones.... Whoever bought Rev's old rig should have gotten the non heated ones from my old XJ (unless he never swapped them in)...
 
Wow. I finally found my old zj. Its actually only about 2 hours away from me. So wish I had the money to get it back.
My old ZJ lived a few blocks away for a few years, but I haven't seen it in a while now. The kid I sold it to sold it to someone else and they getto f@gged it out. Was sad really...

Brad sold the seats I do believe when he parted it out.
 
Well, I see Rew and Sam are hard at it today! Cut and Fold and Modified bumper are on my to do list. gonna do something similar to the cheesefab bumper.

I don't have dies big enough
:(
I need to get my white trash side pipe done.
Think we're turning up the fuel this weekend. :D

Anyone done something like this? Think I know what I'm doing after winterfest.

I used some weld on brackets on the C10 project...they were like $8 each and used D52 calipers (73-87 chevy truck front calipers).

Cheese "got the go, now to the whoa" Man

I should have read this more and checked out the link. I used those exact brackets on my Sterling. Bolted up perfect and everything went together as it should have. I was looking for pics, but cant find any at the moment.

Cheese "poor reader" Man

Cool. Did you use the listed parts?
What did you do for brake lines?
Delete the stupid load sensing prop valve?
 
Yes I used the listed caliper, pads and rotors. I found the rotors on RockAuto for a fraction of the cost of O'Reillys or AutoZone etc. I used 73-87 Chevy truck front lines and then went to hard lines to the distribution block. I ended up selling the axle w/ my D60 as a set, so they never got installed. I had a ZJ disk/disk prop valve that I was going to use. I had used a ZJ valve for my C8.25/ZJ disk swap and it worked perfectly. Not sure how that would work on your truck though.....
 
Sounds like it's not too bad of a job.
I'll have to look, I'm not sure if there is a prop valve at the master cyl but there is that load sensing pos attached to the axle.
In the end it'll cost about as much as redoing my drum brakes.. But these ones will actually work! Lol


I just gutted the prop valve on my jeep when I did the 8.8, I love my brakes in that thing.
