JB's TJ

[AggieTJ2007]

you could pony up the money for speed glass. I would like to find a good quality (not home depot) plexiglass or lexan to build a windshield for the jeep out of

[JB]

David's Auto glass. $190.

China lights bolted to hinge? Gay or not gay? **** it, I like it

[JB]

Only damage to "new" windshield frame. I think he should be able to get new glass in there. The guy put one in the bronco and it was beat to ****

[JB]

Looks like it has D44 in the back.

Does it have the tag still? What gears? My brother's jeep might could use it when you pull it out.

Can someone move this to Projects and Buildups? Don't know why I put it here.

I got the body lift all cut down to 1". I ordered a 1" motor mount lift from BrownDog. I also order PSC XC fenders, but they take a couple weeks to get here.

I wanted to build my own front, but would need to buy some plate. Dumb question, but how do you buy plate? Square foot?

Whats the best way to fix the typcial TJ shifter issue? Just buy a new bushing?

I have to change up the air intake to make the high fenders work and it seems like alot of Jeep douchers cut a hole in the firewall and run the intake underneath the cowl, using an array of different junkyard intakes, the most popular being from a late 90s Windstar. Most look pretty clean, but I would be worried about rain water etc getting in. Anyone done this?

I need 35x12.5x15s if anyone finds any. Also need a softop, preferable cheap.

Yes you buy plate and sheet by the foot. Unless you can find large drop your best bet is to buy an entire 4x8 sheet. It is very expensive to buy a partial sheet and have it cut.

For instance I needed a 3'x4' piece of 1/4" plate and my yard didn't have a piece of drop that big. An entire 4x8 sheet cost $180 and my cut piece cost $150 since they had to shear a new piece.

This bracket will fix the shifter. It is a mount that mounts the shifter pivot to the transmission instead of the body.

Just pull that air box off. Grab a cone style filter and hose clamp it onto the end of the existing tube. It is what I did.

[JB]

I want to run a simple, replaceable, cheap, paper filter.

I assume I would need this as well?

Don't buy plate unless you have to. It's much easier to manage pieces of flat bar. I bought a whole stick of 6"x.25" flat bar for bumpers and random brackets. It also gives you a much nicer edge on most of your parts since you aren't cutting it from a sheet. Draw out some stuff on paper and see what you need. I think they make .25" flat bar up to a foot wide.

Also depending on where you go, they may not sell you anything less than half a sheet. When I bought steel for my floor they wouldn't sell me less than a whole sheet of 16 gauge.

Sparlings right. Flat stock is the way to go unless you know someone with a plasma table. There are a bunch of home built bumpers out there that guys would share their dxf. with you.

How much do you need? I have a lot of drop from the tank farm I'm building.
