Ok, Truck, thanks for your tolerance. Ha-ha. To put my previous post in perspective, I had just figured out the problem after being clueless for a few days and came into the house to check for similar postings on the issue. When I saw Randy's reply (he nailed it on the head, by the way) I...

DIY bedliner questions Pro-Tex, etc Thanks for the replies. I will look into both of them, and the other 2-part kits. I am in the process of repainting 'Bessie' and I would like to get the bed and maybe cab area better protection. Sincerely,

Thanks, Randy. I messed-up. I took photos of my tear-down to help me with the reassembly but got the switch in the wrong spot anyway. I figured it out in my garage about the time you posted your reply. I had it in the inboard port...makes sense why the switch was on all the time and why the...

Hello, all. I recently rebuilt my TF999 and Dana 300 in my Jeep. All went well for never having done it. The only two issues I had from the effort is that I still have a slight tranny leak around the pan (a problem I have had forever) and I also damaged the 4wheel drive indicator switch in...

Hello, all. Has anyone used the 2-part urethane liner offered by by SEM? It is called Pro-Tex, but I have found similar "new" products from other manufacturers. I saw Pro-Tex in an Eastwood catalog. I found it on a few other websites for a fair amount less for the kit but not sure if it is...

'83 A/c compressor belt drive Thanks Robert! I got the compressor a few days ago...it was delivered to the wrong house but now I have it. It seems stuck but a mechanic friend gave me a few things to try to get it working. I will let you know how it goes. I really appreciate it. Sincerely,

Shift Column indicator TF999 Thanks, Randy! I got the indicator today. Looks great. It is a little different than the original on mine but I think it will work fine. I appreciate it. Sincerely,

Tranny torque bushing install? Thanks, Kohldad. I found one while searching the web today. It is for ony the '84-'86 CJ but it should be close enough for my '83 on most everything. It was 15 megs and 1700 pages (PDF format). Really handy piece literature.

Transmission torqu bushing installation? Thanks for the help. By the way, what catalogue did that image come from? By "Bessie" is in pretty good shape but has been repaired a few times with less than correct pieces. I would like to get it back as it was supposed to be but I do not have...

Transmission torqu bushing installation? Thanks for the quick reply, Truck. I must be missing some pieces or have the wrong ones. Please take a look at the picture I posted below. If I turn the tapered ends together I get a gap between them and the main beam (center of photo). Also, I get a...

Hey, all, it is me again. While installing my tranny and Tcase I found that the bearing assemblies for the transmission shift linkage are not in great shape. I attached a pic showing what they look like. Does anyone know where I can get these? One is damaged and the other is worn out. They...

Hello, all. I am finally installing the tranny and transfer case that I rebult. I have a question about a set of bushings (torque bushings?) that install next to the transmission mount. The old setup was not correct and came complete with a hand made piece of foam rubber and some afterthought...

Slight correction...the ebay clock shows what looks like three seperate connectors and wires. The black has a ground terminal. There are also red and green/black wires that seems to terminate with two seperate connectors, one is male (black plastic) and the other is female (green plastic). The...

Hello, all. I am considering adding a clock and tach to my CJ-8. I am watching ebay for OEMs with the connectors but I have a question. I have not dropped my dash to see for myself, but are there unused connectors in the factory harness for these options? One of the posts I found here stated...

Steering column shift indicator Thanks much, Randy. I will make a donation to the animal shelter...I have a "pound" cat myself. He's the most affectionate cat I have ever had and gets along with the dogs very well. He's very tolerant, too...my one year old son drags him around and plays with...

Steering column shift indicator... Thanks, again, Randy. My personal email has been acting strange this week. Please contact me again on what I need to do for your trouble. I appreciate it.

Add Air conditioning question... Thanks, again, OnlyinaJeepCJ. The pics are beneficial. I have already commited to the YJ unit but you have given me a heads-up on what to do with it. Any more pics as you progress or have time would be appreciated.

'83 A/c compressor belt Hey, OnlyinaJeepCJ. Thanks much for the picture. It will surely come in handy. Great looking rebuild, by the way! I hope all goes well when you drop it in. Sincerely, Valkster

Shift indicator That's it...Mine had a broken metal clip, too, but I think that part can be fashioned from sheetmetal. I'll email you if that's OK to work out details? Sincerely, Valkster

Shift indicator Hello, Randyzzz. I am sorry for checking my post so late. Did you salvage this part and is it still available? Thanks, Valkster
