Yeah, straps and bolts are a given. I will be replacing the yoke but for the moment I just need it back on the road ASAP so new U joints, throw shaft back on and get it balanced. Upgrade later

I’m back. Time to address the issue. Didn’t realize what a simple process it really is. I guess the only real bitch is going to be getting the broken bolt out. But hopefully not. Now, about the lift they put on. Here’s what’s under there. Looks stock to me. I’m lucky if I ever get to hit 50 mph...

Thank you for the advice. I found out my daughters boyfriend can balance it at his fathers truck repair shop. So that’s good. I’m leaning toward getting a u bolt yoke conversion. The strap bolt is broke off too far down to get a hold of it and I don’t trust my drilling. Not much room for error...

I’m on u tube as we speak. The balancing I’m not getting... yet. And basically just advice. Uncharted territory for me.

As mentioned earlier in another thread I dropped my rear drive shaft in the middle of the road today. So a lot of reading later, I have to ask, what am I getting into? I see that one of the u joint straps broke and caused the failure. Couldn’t get a pic because it’s pouring and too dark. Can...

Me too. I didn’t see the fluid but I’m sure it’s there. Took a left into busy traffic and pop, there she went. I was able to coast across the street halfway into a parking lot. I’m just glad I didn’t get clipped by on coming traffic

Looks like that’s the least of my problems at the moment. Rear shaft just dropped out... in traffic

Thank you all for the tips and advice. I’m going to go over it this weekend.

It’s been awhile. Decided the easiest way to deal with my broken heater was to vacation the last 3 months of winter away. Time to address some issues now. I smelled oil cooking and discovered my PCV filter was popped out of the valve cover because of a rotted grommet. And wasn’t even...

Finally got it taken care of and passed inspection. The rest of the frame was fine. Now on to the next problem(s)

I’m at a loss. I haven’t had a chance to address it yet. I didn’t realize that next day was Christmas Eve plus it’s been really cold here. Up to 27 tomorrow so I may take a shot at it. I do remember 3 other connections hooked to it. 3 in a line. Somewhere on the left side. Maybe behind where the...

It’s a mess in there with the wiring. Not just this. Weather permitting I’m going to try to get the radio out of the equation and get the heater back the way it should be. Or at least as close as I can with what they left behind. So many things cut, taped, tied up, hanging....I guess they had it...

It actually was working... I think. Only used it once. Was throwing heat (if that’s what you can call it) and no, the large plug wasn’t attached. The black wire from the blower I assume attaches to the micro switch? I’m ‘89.

Yeah, that black wire ties into the after market stereo. Which is why they both stopped at the same time. As time allows I’m going to try to rewire everything up. It WAS working though. I hate trying to get through someone else’s “genius moment” of wiring things up. I have a hard enough time...

Heater and radio went out the other day. Off,on,off,on then off. Checked fuse. P.O had a 15 in there and it was good. Switched to correct 25. Figuring it’s a loose wire. I see this hanging (pic 1) which I’m sure is this (pic2). Colors match. Pull heater half way out and where I’m assuming it...

They should be 3/8”-16 thread, 1 3/4” lengths. But let someone else correct me if I’m wrong.

Yeah, this morning kind of sucked lol. And then when I got her all dug out and drop into 4wd to get out, the clanking was intense. So I’m assuming my CV is shot. Got me out but didn’t sound too pretty. Threw a tarp down to crawl under but snow in the face, down the jacket I said F this, it can...

No Jeep shops within at least an hour. Which sucks. Yeah, it’s been reinforced in several areas. Some well done, a few like shit. When I get the bracket done I’m having him go over the whole frame. Hopefully in a few days. But at the moment...

Here’s a close up. If you see anything I should know please share. I was supposed to go get it welded up tonight but we have 18”-26” of snow starting this afternoon and it’s a good 40 minute drive to get there so that’s shot in the ass. Hopefully Monday

When the sun comes up I’ll have those posted. I know for inspection I have to get this area filled also. Get rid of the shitty spot fill and get a good clean bead. This won’t fly around here.
