Revive Retro

[crash2]

So I am itching to get the engine wiring done but first gotta get the fenders on. Drug them out of the pile (or better yet my chev thats a mobile parts holder)

 

[crash2]

Stripped of all the parts and cleaned..

 

[crash2]

And painted. I only scuffed them up and knocked some of the rust off. They are in rough shape so it wasn't worth putting a bunch of time into them. But thats kind of the character of the rig.

Working on the front/rear wiring now.

 

[crash2]

So while the fenders were drying I got the front to rear harness done up.

 

[crash2]

Starting to look like a heep again

 

[crash2]

Start of the engine wiring. Started by ripping all of it out.

 

[crash2]

Crap removed and ready to rebuild.

 

[crash2]

Battery and battery hold down showed up.

 

[crash2]

Got the engine bay wiring all done. All the power feeds/grounds were all redone also.

 

[crash2]

None of the reverse lamp or 4x4 wiring was there (probably been gone for a long time).

 

[crash2]

I replaced the front marker lamps that were not there. Fired the system off/it started and ran. I ended up getting the tail lamps crossed so the turn signals were backwards lol. Easy fix at the connector. I also had to change the usb power feed from battery to ignition due to the blue lamp in the usb housing being on (had to re-route the voltage at the fuse block I added).

 

[crash2]

Been a long time since these lamps worked :redneck:

 

[crash2]

Cleaned the mess the jeep puke up :flipoff:

 

[crash2]

Shifters and shifter covers installed.

 

[crash2]

Pulled the seats/center console down and cleaned them up. Looking more like a jeep :cheer:

You have a source and p/n handy for that shifter boot? I don't think I've ever seen a combo unit like that, and it might just work for my flatty project...

 

[crash2]

I think the main boot is the stock CJ and the t-case shifter boot looks like the same one AA sells with there atlas t-cases.

Must have missed it (and I just went back through the thread), whats the drive train in that thing?

Obviously a good old SBC, but what is the tranny/t-case? T-case looks like a D300.

 

[crash2]

Its a 304 and not sure about the tranny(not original)mated to a d300.

I will have to ask bill what tranny it is.
