You're a brave, brave man! I had my 5 shipped from SC to avoid that kind of rust. Best of luck... I'm looking forward to following your progress.
I couldn't have been happier dealing with Dan. He's a pleasure to talk with on the phone, and is very helpful with any and all questions. The...
I ended up tracking down some nice metal wire clamps with rubber surfaces from a FLAPS. I started around 9:30 by capping off the generator and...
Thanks everyone. The new harness arrived yesterday, along with a speedo. So I'll be pecking away at rewiring this over the next week or so....
Well, they finally had a chance to track down the problem, and it turns out it was the condenser. So the JEEP was up and running... Well, for...
This is what's throwing me for a loop... Everything's new. The only thing in the engine compartment that didn't get touched was the engine,...
Thanks! Unfortunately the JEEP is off the road right now. I can't figure out what's wrong, and need to take a step back because throwing parts...
Thanks everyone. It's been inspected and it's all I've driven all week. So far it's been doing great. I should spend some time this weekend...
Well, it tooks some time, but I managed to get the clutch issues worked out. The previous owner had used the throwout bearing carrier from some...
So, quick question. I'm installing the new bearing tomorrow and have a question about adjusting the linkage. I see in the book that it says the...
Well, I'd be concerned about drilling that tab because it's about an inch further forward from where the actual tab is supposed to be. I think I...
Here are a few pics of the throwout bearing I have... As far as I can tell, the squared off side of the throwout bearing collar goes on the side...
I've searched and searched, and can't seem to figure out what to do. I've fixed this twice, and the clutch linkage still doesn't work...
A Meet and Greet would be a lot of fun. As for cleaning up loose ends, there are definitely a few. I need to replace the wheels at some point....
Well, I pulled the drive shafts, pulled the tunnel, dropped the transmission and transfer case, removed the clutch fork, installed the new spring,...
Thanks everyone. I ordered a new spring, clutch fork and cable and they should be here tomorrow. I figured I'd take care of it all at once so I...
I have a Jeepster hood & grille that I was going to put on my 5, but I chickened out at the last minute and stuck with the original. But there...
As it turns out, I'm a bit more of an idiot than I thought. I never put the throwout bearing return spring back on, so the clutch fork dropped...
Well, I had a long list to wrap up, but after a great day we managed to get everything done, fire the JEEP up for the first time in 10 months, and...
Thanks everyone. In all fairness I did say I'd have it ready with any luck. Clearly I should have specified with any good luck, because the...
