You fix one thing and something else always breaks. Now I need to buy a new hub for the driver's side. :doh:

I wonder how difficult it would be to pull the engine on the Honcho. I'd say easy if it wasn't so high...

I have to drill and tap some holes

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

uhhh, no rear windows? that's a wacky option, mail truck from the RHD setup I'm guessing?

no parts store in town has a fuel pump assembly for an MJ... how am I not surprised :roflmao:

EDIT: uhhhh, what happened to scully's post with that blue RHD panel van XJ?

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Are they panels or just painted over windows? I'm gonna assume panels but gotta ask. And I like the sidemarker above the flare.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

So I just got home from grabbing dinner. I am borrowing my mothers suburban to pick up the DOM tomorrow. I looked in the burb to put some tools in it (mostly a sawzall to cut the steel down to length) and saw that literally EVERY row of seats was full of shit. The cargo area, the back seat, other back seat, front seat... everything. I walked inside (kindof surprised, thinking she completely forgot our discussion of me borrowing her vehicle like she does half the time) and asked if she was going to clean her car out. She said she just got home from school (picking my brothers up).

So then my father came in. My mother was talking like I had been an ass to her and I got shit for it when I was just stunned that the front seat was full of gatorade bottles, all back seats full of clothes and books and shit, etc.. the hatch area was full of something that I just walked past. I mean I was trying to get ready before going to sleep rather than getting pissed in the morning when I found the vehicle full of stuff cause she completely forgot about me taking her vehicle (at which point it would be my fault for not reminding her the night before). Ends up the hatch area was full of stuff she just picked up an hour ago... but that doesn't explain why EVERY other seat in the car has barely enough room for me to sit down. Anyway. end rant. I'm ready to say screw paying rent here already and find an apt or something :smsoap:

I was trying to put the actual pic, but somethings amuck with my photobucket.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Couldn't you just make some panels and put them in yourself? :dunno:

photobucket for the lose, use imageshack!

EDIT: scott, do it, life's so much better when you can do whatever you want without being hassled. I would have been slaughtered had I worked on a transmission in my living room at home, but here I just did it because I felt like it

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I shouldn't really bitch about the burb since I get to borrow it and w/o the burb I would have had to make sure all my measurements were dead on so I could cut the steel at the steel yard rather than measuring again once I have it here...

But really, I don't even give a damn if she cleans the hatch area out. "the back is full of stuff I just picked up"... yeah well you could have spent any time in the past 2 days cleaning out the rest of the vehicle... I told her I didn't need the seats out and I can just fold them down and lay the tube over them. There isnt even enough room to fold a seat down. I HAVE AN ALTIMA COUPE THATS FULL OF SHIT AND I CAN FOLD THE SEATS DOWN. HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE ENOUGH ROOM IN A SUBURBAN!!! <end rantart2>

Yes.
That would be the more sensible option, vs importing one.
I just love seeing options we didnt have here.Makes me a little jealous.
Kinda like the Troller (YJ made by Ford in Brazil,using jeeps design).Came with a turbo diesel and a snorkel.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

theres a 2000 xj with a seized motor for 800 bucks in CT.
hmmmm

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Oh, and I just walked out the Jeep with my tools. I almost threw a light on the ground, reamed out my knuckles, threw the TREs in, took some measurements, and said "fawk it, I'll take my car" and just hope my measurements were right.I SHOULD be able to cut it to 1x 4' length and 2x 3' lengths... but I don't know for sure. Plus I have to bring Billy a 10' length so that ruins that plan unless I let it hang out the trunk... which is also a valid option.

Why does that sound badass?

Thats the other reason I gotta move out... the last time I mentioned that I wanted to buy a 99 XJ with a bad trans I got shit along the lines of "why would you want that, its broken, you can't keep a dead car here, there's no point" when, in reality, I could pay $500 for a trans and have a running vehicle for $1500.

My rents don't seem to understand buying something for a good price and fixing it. If I said I wanted to trailer that home and swap the engine I think they would shit a brick.
