What's on your Work Bench?

When I redid all those wheels and brought them to the pinstriper to have him do it, I had measured many many of them.
They all fluctuated from 1/8" to a heavy 1/8" but not getting as wide as 3/16"... now that was for CJ ones, not sure if there was any difference between the 5 luggers and the 6.

I've got some original CJ wheels with the stripe I can measure. I'm sure the FSJ ones were about the same. You can see in the first pic of the wheel how the stripe width varied from the begining to the end. It's pretty dramatic. I wasn't sure if there was an actual dimension for them or if they just told some guy "hey Bubba, put a stripe on these wheels".

Nice. When you gonna install it? I've got one in the parts stash for the Scrambler, but haven't ever gotten around to installing it. You gonna do a install thread?

I am in the process of installing it now. I guess I could do an install thread???

I picked it up a year or so ago and wasn't sure it was fully operational. Bench tested it the other day and it seems to be fully functional. So I ordered some speakers for the stock dash positions. I'm going to add an "Out of Sight Audio" Mark III unit which will power additional speakers and provide Bluetooth connectivity but still operate with the original radio and cb!


 
Are they still good? I've found a few of these but was worried about them not being any good after sitting for so long.

These appear to be but yes I have found others where there's absolutely no charge left. These are from around 1976-1977, front and rear pairs for CJ5 and 7.
 
Tired of fooling around with rebuilt M/C that don't work... Navajo!
