    Tips and tricks for serpentine belt install

    I’ve read about that, was hoping to get it another way. If that gets it on the front groove, do the same for the second groove?

    Tips and tricks for serpentine belt install

    What’s the trick for getting the rear belt back over the power steering pully? I’ve loosened the bolts as required, the new belt is just…tight. Thanks

    87 YJ (Outbreak)

    No seat. I’m going to fad a removable deck at the top of the wheel wells to close it in. It will be removable from the inside, in case I want to add a seat. I still have the factory seat, but it’s not in great shape. not torn up, just need to put a cover on it.

    87 YJ (Outbreak)

    Pretty much done with my YJ. Painted, and all the parts put back one, with just a few exceptions inside. Putting a new radio in the center console, and need to install the Tuffy overhead security console with the ham and GMRS radios. I also need to order new seatbelts, as the factory belts...

    87 YJ Seat Belts

    No luck. They can replace the webbing, but I would need to find new metal parts to replace the rusty ones and send it all to them to assemble. It will be cheaper for me to just order new ones. Obviously I want my rig to be safe, but 300 bucks for OEM stings a little.

    87 YJ Seat Belts

    Thanks Chief, I will look into them for sure. If you don’t mind me asking, about how much did it run you?

    87 YJ Seat Belts

    Have you replaced yours, and where did you get them from? Mine work, but are really faded and there is a rust on some areas of the buckles. Figure it would be a good ideal to replace them.

    87 Project

    Okay, biggest part of my build is done. New seats, Raptor lined the tub, did the outside in Monstaliner, and a NOS leather steering wheel. Still have a to-do list, but now i can at least get out and drive around.

    Center Console Radio Slot

    Thanks for the info. Hadn't looked at Crutchfield yet. I had bought one from Amazon that had carplay, and only a few crap reviews compared to good ones, but the screen was a 1/4 inch too tall to fit in the Rugged Ridge console, so sending it back. The Carplay models on Crutchfield look like they...

    Center Console Radio Slot

    I have a Rugged Ridge center console that accepts a single din radio, curious what radios you installed, and how they sound. I bunch of carplay models pop up on Amazon, but reviews are so back and forth, not sure how much value any of them really have. May just put one in the dash spot and put a...

    Thanks, good info. Hopefully taking the Jeep by a muffler shop next week to see if they’ll cut the bold head off for me.

    Welded Nut

    I know this is dragging this issue back from over a year ago, but I have a similar issue. Right side bolt under the frame, the welded nut has broke loose. Can a small enough hole be cut unto the side, or bottom of the frame be made without loss of integrity of the frame? This way, once the...

    Howdy

    Hey y’all. I’m Chris, and I’m down in Summerville, SC near Charleston. Just picked up an 87 YJ with the 4.2. My first jeep without coil springs. My first Jeep was a 99 TJ I bought new and I’ve had several TJ’s and JK’s since 99. This is actually the first Jeep I’ve owned without making payments...
