    Is this rust a purchase deal breaker?

    With that much exterior frame rust, I'd be concerned because these frames tend to rust from the inside out. Looks like drivers side looks pretty good, its usually the passenger side (right) behind the rear wheel where the frame goes bad. Water and mud gets trapped inside the frame. With that...

    1993 Center Console Replacement

    Not a good pic, but I also have one of the Tuffy's. Its heavy duty steel with a key lock and fits perfectly between the seats.

    Safe for Yellow Metals GL-5

    As already stated, it was a misprint. I use Redline MT-90, its GL4 and good stuff.

    AX-15 Transmission Fluid Report

    I've had the exact same positive results from using Redline MT-90. Shifts like butter.

    My new to me YJ

    I went through the same thing when I bought my YJ. It's a cheap, quick and easy fix replacing the speedo gear with the correct size one. Just 10 minutes and two bolts if I recall correctly. Ordered my speedometer gear off of Amazon for around 29 bucks. You just need to know the gearing in the...

    My new to me YJ

    Very nice buy, If its showing 70 with 35's at 2400 rpm, they probably didn't change out the speedo gear in the transfer case. Most likely doing about 60 mph, you can check it against a GPS. Doesnt cost much, and only take 5 or 10 minutes to change it out.

    Is there a roll bar available that connects the windshield to the roll cage when the top is off?

    After digging out my soft top frame that's been buried for a couple of years, I saw that the two horizontal rails that you are referring to are attached to my soft top frame (they're not as wide as yours in your pic). So I went out to look at the YJ and there's a vertical channel attached to the...

    Is there a roll bar available that connects the windshield to the roll cage when the top is off?

    I've never seen that before either, and I've seen a lot of YJ's. Normally they are as Flyer said, and its the same size diameter roll bar that bolts to the windshield frame. There was only two types of roll bars that came from the factory, Early on was the sport bar, and then came the family...

    Should I buy this YJ?

    Keep the truck, find another YJ that hasn't been molested so much. This one is not worth having and investing in.

    Multifunction combination switch

    If you have the factory headlights and not LED's, most likely not bright enough to blind oncoming traffic on high beam anyway. Mine wasn't until I replaced them with LED lights.

    Speedometer

    The speed sensor itself could be bad. Also, follow the three wires a little further back to make sure there is no damaged wire. A buddy of mine just went through the same thing. First he changed the speedo gear thinking that was bad, didnt fix the problem. He started looking a little more and...

    What did you name your YJ and how did you decide on it?

    I agree. No one has ever said that to me but if they did, I'd just tell the purist that you can't get more original Jeep Wrangler than the first-generation Jeep Wrangler YJ. After all, your JK and all the others is based on my YJ, the original real Wrangler.
