    Stripping torx heads

    Yep. One I was trying to remove was the seatbelt buckle end and i should’ve vacuumed out the plastic sleeve first. Also was getting pushed a bit off center by the opening in the plastic. Will have t get creative, since i want to reuse the sleeve.

    Stripping torx heads

    Well I’ve got the cussing part down. Literally soaked this seatbelt bolt in pb blaster for a week but still stripped it. The stripping seems to happen really sudden— i guess i must be over torquing it. maybe im also not keeping the wrench straight enough

    91 interior gray vinyl paints?

    So after much searching, I've learned the dash and panels are a color called 'cinder.' Also found this - https://superiorrestoration.com/color-charts/water-base-auto-match/jeep/ and this - https://www.classicdyeproducts.com/jeep-interior-colors seems like the seats look like lt. quartz but...

    91 interior gray vinyl paints?

    Anyone know of good vinyl paints that color-match (or sort of color-match) the various grays inside a 91? The dash & door panels are dark gray, the seats/visors/padding are a medium gray, and I assume the consoles matched the dash? I'm asking for two reasons--I'm looking for a console that I...

    1991 YJ Color ID Help

    This is years and years too late for you, but it looks like 35077 Gunmetal Poly (Low-Gloss). (I was looking for something else and that is an excellent color)

    What soft top frame has fixed stretchers?

    In case anyone has the same question in the future, Bestop tells me this is an OEM frame, and that their Replace-a-top will work. I’ve still never seen another with non-folding spreader bars, and I’m planning to buy folding replacements from rugged ridge for about $20 each, so that the top...

    Soft top frame questions

    I may have to do the same. I am not even sure how to correctly operate this top frame, since i haven’t seen one made like it.

    What soft top frame has fixed stretchers?

    I need a new top for this 91, and cannot figure out where the frame came from, which i was hoping to clean up & reuse. It might be stock, but the stretcher bars from the middle hoop to the back hoop aren’t hinged. Every top I’ve seen has a hinge in the middle of this part to loosen it before...

    Soft top frame questions

    Having the same issue right now. Bestop top, but I can't find a frame like the one that's on it to figure out what top it is. The frame has one piece stiffeners behind the roll bar (without a joint in the middle), but no diagonal stretchers. Maybe the B/T folks can tell me what it is. (Or...

    94 2.5

    Hey all, Newish here, and trying to get my elderly parents’ 94 YJ roadworthy again. Mom wants to keep it for the grandkids to drive around in, and I told her I’ll fix it up for her. It’s been sitting awhile, but with a new battery & a couple fuses I got it cranked up and running while there...

    In need of wiring advice

    Solved. Finally back at my parents’ house Turns out the battery was way older than I thought. I guess the last time I bought them a battery it was for their pickup not their Jeep. One of the original battery terminal clamps was broken so I replaced them both when I replaced the battery . AND...
