    Cant. Wont stick to plastic. I asked them about fender flares after I had them Line-X my fenders.

    Looks like everything you need is in the kit.


    My opinion ... I dont like the way the windshield retainer mounts. You have to unbolt the clips :down: I like the factory clips that flip up to unlock the top from the windshield. I would try to find a used top to get the factory hardware and then get a Bestop® Sailcloth Replace-a-top™ with Tinted Windows.

    The header channel I have for my 98TJ clips into the same slots that the soft top brackets clip into on the inside of the windsheild frame at the top and then you tighten down two bolts.

    Thanks Joe I got out of class early tonight.


    It sounds like the gears in the nv3550 are still rattling around even if it is neutral. Then when I push the clutch in it getter noticeably queiter but the noise is still there. Also while drive about 30mph in third gear I can hear it rattle quite a bit.
    FYI items that are new: trans, throwout bearing, clutch kit and slave cylinder hose. The original parts: slave cylinder, fork


    When bleeding the clutch shouldn't the pedal get firmer when you pump it up? just like brakes?

    Well just so everyone knows. That is if anyone has a "bright" :doh: idea like I did. All of the connectors/plugs on the engine are different. I had to switch all the connectors over ie water temp sensor, distributor, intake and fuel injection. Not to mention the JEEP wasnt lifted what a PIA! But it s done now.

    Does anyone know of any differences between a 97 4cyl and a 98 4cyl? (specifically the engine) I will be putting my 98 engine into a 97 body. I noticed that the wiring harness looks a little different as far as how the plugs on the firewall are postioned but that shouldn't matter.

    Ok I have to switch out the slave cylinder hose with a braided steel line cause the other one melted and leaked. And I got the correct transfer case bracket monday and the rear adjustable trackbar today. So hopefully I this weekend I will be driving it. :driving: Will keep you guys posted.

    Drove it over to scotti and had a magnaflow muffler installed. I will be bringing it back on monday to have them replace the drivers side of the y-pipe so that my front drive shaft will bolt in they said that they could not bend the pipe to make it fit. Also noticed that my right rear tire is rubbing the spring. And still trying to figure out this AA bracket for the transfer case shifter. Also does anyone have a pic of their rear trackbar? just want to make sure mine is not in upside down.

    Well I feel like a fool the transfer case was in neutral thats why it would not move yesterday. I havent hooked up the linkage yet trying to figure out how the AA relocation bracket is suppossed to be mounted.
