For what it's worth I'm painting mine this blue steel color. I've always loved the look of nutmeg and blue.

Thank you, Barrys and FLCJ8. Anyone have a picture of it on? I'm assuming it goes on the driver side leaf spring but I'm not sure how to secure it. Is it just sandwiched between the spring and plate?

A little help needed with where this part goes. I'm pretty confident it goes on a leaf spring but not sure which one. Also, what is used for? Thank you in advance.

Totally Stainless sells a button kit and hex kit. Anyone know which of the two is closer to a stock look?

I've got a base 1984 if that helps. Thanks.

I need to buy new tires but don't know what size to get. Does anyone know what size tire came on Scramblers from the factory? Anyone know what style (brand/model)? I'm trying to get an OEM as possible look for my build. Thanks.

That's a brilliant idea. I'll make sure to document it and add photos to the thread when I get around to it next month.

Thanks for all of the input. I think I'm going to take the advice and source the materials from jeep air.

Great suggestion walkerhoundmv. I did exactly as you had suggested and I was able to pin the nut to the side with a screwdriver while I used a vice grip to turn the bolt. I had the bolt out in about 5 minutes. John N, I did try to gently bend the front piece upwards. You are right, it does...

All, Not too long ago I bought an original a/c unit from a member on the forum. I bought it so I could add a/c to my stock 4cyl engine and thereby make the 8 more enjoyable to the wife and I. At the time, the member was also selling a radiator and I naively did not buy it. My questions are...

I heated the bolt last night and it appears (from a visual inspection) to have broken the rust bond from the bolt. The problem is that the nut is free floating in the cavity. Because of that, any movement of the bolt results in the nut turning as well. As far as I can tell I have no point of...

All, While I was dissassembing my Scrambler I managed to sheer off a couple of bolt heads. It appears rust-lock and inpatience on behalf got the better of me. Fast forward several months and here I am starting to prep parts for bodywork. I've come to the point where I need to remove the broken...

Thanks for the info. I'll send you a pm about the seats.

CJ7Pilot, Do you know if the brackets from my original low back seats will be a direct fit to the high back?

Looks like i'll be masking off the stickers. It seems like a shame not to at least try to preserve them. I'll keep you guys updated on how it goes.
