Do you think it was the manufacturer doing some testing or just a group of owners? One time I was on a motorcycle trip way out in the Texas Hill Country and we came upon a small fleet of brand new cars (can't remember the make or model). Definitely some road testing.

I recently got my YJ repainted and I contemplated spray-on bedliner for a minute. Ultimately, it was going to be pretty much the same price as a decent paint job and I had some of the same concerns as you about how you're pretty committed after getting it done. I think it's a decent look for a...

I just went through this exact project recently because previous owners had hacked up the shift boots and the shifter cover. It was functional, but I can't stand when there are all kinds of mixed screws and bolts going into a bunch of non-OEM hole locations drilled by years of POs and bad...

Not sure if it's helpful with your particular issue, but there's a good thread in the How-To section of the forum about getting the 4wd light to work properly. If you haven't seen it, check it out.

Recently installed a 17in light bar and a pair of A Pillar lights. All LED. Light bar on one wiring harness and switch, A pillar on a separate harness and switch. Tonight was the first night since I completed the install and I was testing them out a bit, trying to get everything aimed where I...

That's funny. I was kind of thinking the same thing when I went to look these up on Amazon. I was like darn, I'm going to have to wait 4 or 5 days to get this project knocked out when I could've just run over to a Radio Shack and been done with it.

I think we're cut from the same cloth. I'm going to have to do this now. Lol. Can you confirm that I'm looking at the right resistors and diodes? Resistors - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HKSKBO0/?tag=yjforum-20 Diodes - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00W17LOBO/?tag=yjforum-20

Just re-read your post and answered my own question. Lol.

Thanks Macho. I'm going to read over that a few times and let it soak in a bit. I'm curious, are the side markers supposed to function as turn signals? Is that the how they originally worked with incandescent bulbs? Although I've always thought it would make sense for them to blink, mine...

Interesting. I had no idea, but it makes sense after reading over your post a few times. As far as re-wiring the side markers, I have a couple quick questions. 1) If it's only a matter of their grounding, could I just ground them to the frame/body and not bother messing with a complete...

Quick review of my current blinker set up - I've got LED taillights in the rear (complete replacements) and LED bulbs in the front blinker locations. I've got electronic relays under the dash for both blinkers and hazards. Flash rate is perfect on all four corners whether I'm using my turn...

This sounds like something I would totally do. I'm pretty ocd when it comes to wiring and the Jeep drives me crazy. So when I get a chance to wire something myself (like lights) I like to do it as clean as possible.

If it was the choke, do you think that would be contributing to the bogging and poor highway performance, or is it more related to the strange start up and idle behavior? Just curious if you think I've got related or unrelated issues.

Hey folks. This group has been really helpful for me recently as I've been refreshing my YJ. I thought I'd outline some concerns I've got regarding my fueling/current carb tune, and see if anyone has any suggestions about how to proceed. First, a few bits of background. I've got an 88 with a...

Also Collins Brothers Jeep here in the Dallas area.

If you really like that look I can certainly understand. I just found those OEM side steps to be too tall and not enough step surface for anyone to get in and out easily. The only part that’s reinforced for stepping on is the step part. The rest is just plastic fender. If it’s just the blank...

Here's a pic of what I had on my YJ before I ditched them for tubular steps which I personally like better. Another thought, it kind of looks like your plastic fenders may be wider than stock. I can't quite tell. If they are, the original steps (like what's pictured) might not work well...

So the OEM steps that spanned the gap between front and rear fenders are actually higher off the ground than the tubular steps you've got now. If you're looking for something to ease getting in and out of the Jeep, going back to the original set up is probably going the wrong direction for what...

Not sure if they're the same or different, but are you talking about half doors or full doors?

Thanks guys. So last night I decided to play around a little and moved the switched "trigger" wire off of the headlight wire to a slot on the interior fuse block that had constant power (I think it was my empty CLOCK fuse). Worked perfectly. I did wonder if I could tap the switched trigger...
