  1. The brackets have to mount the proper bumper unless you get hacky. They mount to the bumper differently
  2. When I had my 88, I did the 93+ front bumper (I did a one piece though). You will need the bumper to frame brackets and if I remember correctly may have to notch one of the frame side holes on the bracket (might be case dependent as mine were originally D21 brackets as it was a setup off a previously owned Hardbody).
  3. Direct swap for the grill, bumper will require the proper bumper to frame brackets (to match the bumper year) but will bolt directly to the frame as well. If doing a D21 grill/headlight setup you will also need headlight buckets, wiring pigtails and side markers. Again aside from the headlight plugs is all bolt on as well
  4. Nice truck, but a LOT more could be bought for 18k... But you know what can be said about a fool and his money
  5. Late to the party too, but I have dated taste and would have voted out myself!
  6. Its your truck, who cares. I used Mopar 'Panther Pink' and generic appliance white on WhiteOwl (and used White Out as touch up). Heck, I painted my S10 with house paint...
  7. Only modifying ive personally done was the antifouler trick (and actually made spacers out of lug nut lock keys for a friends Escalade that was supposed to be a temporary fix 3 years ago...). Was always OBD2 stuff that didn't require visual emission check though, as long as the (properly working) engine light was off and was in spec for incomplete monitors=sticker time!
  8. That looks more like a paint prep failure at some point. The ventshade was just what it took to bring it to light. The tape didn't fail as pointed out, the paint is still attached to it. A couple months of double sided tape being stuck to it wasn't the cause, just the showing symptom. Your upset at the wrong target. As for the Maaco comment, we had a wrecker at work redone by them. Crap job but got what we paid for, didn't really care as it was getting vinyled anyway AMD even if we wanted to couldn't do anything since they got evicted from their building shortly after
  9. Had it happen once with a set of 10" wide Centerline Hellcats on a Tahoe. Still have the centers somewhere from the bad set... Had no issues exchanging (I forget who they were bought through... I mean Hellcats were actually considered a 'current' wheel at the time). Can't give any experience on Cragar copy's though
  10. but true I replaced mine with one from Frontier or an Xterra if I remember right when mine was dryrotted
  11. For a company called 'Unique Wheels' I would expect something... unique, not just 100% knock off copys.
  12. Alot of newer crap don't even have a spare, its an 'option' or 'package'...
  13. When I had WhiteOwl, rear parking break cables sucked to find (88 with rear disc). My Carquest rep eventually found them in Canadia Eh. Pretty much everything else was available, scavengeable, or i took from ToolShed/my own stash of D21 pieces.
  14. Check your motor mounts and transmission mount as well
  15. I used to get an occasional "Jeep Wave" from a couple random XJs (Jeep people are kinda dumb-the irony) but would only be verbally confused with other imports.
  16. I just used a factory one when i had mine, I had to shave like 2 inches off the overall length because of the sunroof.
  17. As stated by Red,wd21/d21 doors interchange, just have to change over the wiring harness for power options since they cosmetically changed the door panels and different switch layouts (not really an issue if your making 1/2 doors). As for the sunroof, 1st gen Frontiers and Xterras may be an option as I believe the shade for an Xterra fits a wd21 sunroof (not really a great way to judge) and I know I personally had the glass gasket and latch from a Frontier on mine. Not sure on the glass itself though
  18. Price seems good for my area, good luck with the sale. Don't be too harsh on the JK Unlimited, depending on the year. Hopefully you have the Pentastar and your not stuck with the 3.8. And watch leaving the top off parked in the rain, the clockspring dont like it too much
  19. Just meant as a differnt way of saying 'remote start' (for say warming up a cold vechile without leaving your house on a cold morning. hit a button on a fob and it runs for a few minutes but still needs the traditional key in the ignition to actually drive it as touchong the brake pedal usually overrides the remote system), not meant as a push button on the dash type setup the way i read it at least.
  20. the one i drove was WhiteOwl, the parts donor ToolShed, the hardbody WhiteOwl replaced was TrueValue/the Wheelbarrel, the Wrangler that replaced WhiteOwl is currently just Heep right now
  21. It's tapatalk, it shows an error and natural instint is to re-submit when a refresh is all that's necessary. I removed the 4 duplicates.
  22. TAKOS Tuesday is ALWAYS priority!
  23. Not to be that person but they have a warranty policy, and you chose not to follow it. I wouldn't personally refund without having the unmodified part in my hand to see it wasn't installer error and indeed an error on manufacturing end (not pointing fingers at your shop you used). Inconvince? Sure, but I don't see too many companies just randomly sending new parts out over a cell phone pic. (And I'm victim of Rockauto's complete lack of caring after taking your money even when following there warranty steps)
