Not really any adjustment to the CJ hold downs, I find it's better to adjust the hood latch so the hook fits tight to hole in the top of the grill (its a fine line between not latching and fitting tight enough to prevent hood bounce.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

Anyone recommend a good tape to mount the CJ-8 and Scrambler emblems to the body? The aftermarket emblems I've seen (Omix-Ada) use a gray colored double sided tape, but I am not having any luck finding anything in a width enough to cover the entire surface.

Stock corners (rectangle tail light) or custom (round tail light)?

As Walkerhoundvm says, the eccentric gear carrier must be clocked to correct position for the gear to engage properly (correct position varies depending on the tooth count of the gear being used). FWIW, you can still get new drive gears from a Mopar dealer if you can't locate them from an...

On the really stubborn ones I use heat and ice. Heat the housing (a heat gun will do the trick without fear of starting a fire) and then use dry ice on the fitting (cold will contract the metal just like heat will expand the metal).

Might be the motor is bad or it could also be the linkage is bent/binding (will have to take stuff apart to check either one). Do you get any lateral movement if you wiggle the wiper pivot point? Sometimes the windshield frame gets metal fatigue where the pivot mounts are, and it causes...

Nice looking Postal at the Alaska Transportation Museum (from Ultimate Adventure 2019).

Some info for 2020 -

Thanks. I may have to put this on the calendar for next year. Looking for an alternative to all-4-fun week.

Anyone ever been to or heard about this event?

I thought I saw a Scrambler too. The movie is all action/effects but not much on plot...

A good/low mile LJ runs 15-20K in my area (maybe a bit more if it's a Rubicon). A good Scrambler cost about the same...

I carry a CO2 tank and also have a small compressor out of a Cadillac (air suspension pump) in case the tank should run empty.

I stowed my scissor jack in the garbage years ago.. :whistle: I feel about them the same way as I do a High Lift jack... an injury waiting to happen.

Holy cow... That looks like it was sitting in salt water for 10 months.

Been using the clock and tachometer and pretty happy with both (only gripe is the clock arms don't lite up at night like the other gauge needles). I'd buy the full set if they made an mechanical oil pressure gauge to match the CJ line.

It looks like the float arm could be adjusted just the same as the original (although they state it is precalibrated, so should not need adjustment).

That piece was the source of the only real rust problem I've ever had on the Scrambler. Traps a ton of road grime against the wheel well.

Mine came from the factory with only a soft top, and that's all it's ever had... Sometimes I like the idea of a hard top in the winter, but i've never put much energy into getting one.
