    Spankrjs 1985 Spring Special CJ-7

    Do you know if the PCV Solenoid was removed due to a recall under all that mess? My '83 had serious blow-by (may have been the reason for sale), after many attempts of trying to find the problem I came across a melted PCV Solenoid. After bypassing the solenoid ALL my problems went away. I later...

    Inline 6 - coolant plug

    https://oljeep.com/edge_82_tsm.html This is for the '82, there are some minor differences through the model years mostly due to emissions.

    Got the Vortec V8, Now what?

    AdamH uses the Rugged Ridge (Omix) on his builds. https://www.cj-8.com/threads/sunny-delight-now-shelly-2-0.52123/page-8#post-478025 (There was a discussion here somewhere on the Crown vs. Omix.)

    Here we go

    I've been researching something like that for a while now. i had watched a video where a builder installed some (nowhere near as nice as yours) and was talking on the video about coming out with mounting brackets, I had contacted him and he said to just fab them. :shrug: Anyway, we need more...

    Postal Hinges

    First thing I would do is remount the hinges the right way :shrug: (sorry it's my big pet peeve) Also, I know that's not your yours APCJ8.

    That is some serious storage space. :thumbsup: Is that 16" or 19.2" joist spacing?

    Best battery

    That sounds like a great plan since it looks like you're doing fine for now. The 4xspower battery you linked is a group 34, that is what I thought you had in the Optima. That's why I suggested the group 24 for the extra capacity, the group 24 is only ~1.25" taller than the 34 and the foot...

    I believe your Optima is also rated for a lower temperature as well. :unsure: Have you looked at the Odyssey ODX-AGM24M it has about 30% more capacity (76ah) than your yellow top and is supposed to handle extreme cold and heat. DL was recently acquired by a new company so not sure if that's...

    Best battery

    I believe your Redarc will charge lithium as well so that would be good. One thing about Lithium batteries is they have a somewhat narrow charge/discharge temp range so you'll want to be sure it doesn't get too cold as well. I know they make heating pads etc. for them and I believe some have...

    Wet plugs

    So I'll have to look to see what the wire with the connector goes to in the wiring diagram. As I said, I had updated my ignition system years ago so the coil is different as well as the connector to it, however the wire with the connector is not connected to anything and mine worked better than...
