  • Add Fog Lights

    the schematics for the head/fig lights r available if u do a google search. I didnt look it uo but i can cause i have a '98 fsm but the power comes from the fuse panel behind the glove box and the ground is spliced into the headlight ground. The switching goes through the multifuncion switch on top of the steering column

  • Add Fog Lights

    u answered your own question. The fog lights turn on/off with the toggle under the hvac center and there is nothing on the turn signal salk. They r powered off the fuse box behind the glovebox (i think).

  • Abs Traction

    its usually a wheel speed sensor. A shop quality scanner can read and graph each corner so u can usually see the issue or if it gas an abs fault it will tell u where to look.

  • Abs Traction

    what year, model jeep? R u looking in the specific abs modual or just using a generic scanner? Most home scanners cant see the abs codes, only emissions codes.

  • YJ 1992 Frame Restoration

    and its my opinion and experience that the coating might help but its impossible to cover 100%. U cant do it while the frame is open because the welding will cook it off. The only way to correctly do it is to dip the frame but thats very costly. I figure it took 20+ years for the factory frames to rust through. In that time these jeeps were driven daily drivers on northern salted roads. Now these jeeps r 2nd or 3rd tier fun cars and r driven much less. Once the frames r fixed and hopefully kept clean of sand then they should easily last another 20+ years even without the coatings.

  • New CJ7 VIN and the DMV - Street Rod Registration

    the vin shouldnt be an issue if u go through the regular lane. As long as they can see it at the base if the windshield they wont look any further.


    Make sure the horn, wipers and lights (license plate light too) work. U will need red side markers in rear and yellow in front with reflectors greater the 3 sq-in.


    Mud flaps r a good idea now too. They forced me to put them on after 15 years if not needing them. I zip tied welcolm mats to the bumper.


    They will sniff the tail pipe so u might need it tuned?


    For an antique tag it needs to be near stock looking. If u get it through once its tge inly time u have to go to the dmv but there r driving reatructions.
