- '80 CJ7, Just a rolling frame right now... will have Mopar 360, Torqueflite 727, D20, full size D44, Chrysler 9.25 with 4 wheel discs. SOA on Rubicon Express 1.5" YJ springs.
I'm supposed to be getting ready to put my front axle back together, but I'm ordering parts I don't need yet off eBay...

Got into the breaks. Replaced all shoes, front L/R wheel cylinders, and front L/R brake hoses. Bled lines but having trouble. PLEASE HELP! If you can offer some advice, please go to my thread. https://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f7/74-cj5-brake-flush-help-32355/

I've always bench bled the M/C before installing on the vehicle. Makes a world of difference.

Replaced my old hacked up by the PO dashboard with a new one from Kentrol in brushed steel. I did booger up my washer and heater switches trying to get the knobs off so have to order replacements. It took me all day but the end result looks pretty good.
A note: The Kentrol dashboard I got (w/o radio hole) didn't have the cut outs for the tach or clock. I decided to forgo the clock but did cut a hole for the tach. HH6 is now upset because I left the clock out of a vehicle she is too scared to drive. Sometimes you cannot win.

Well, no turning back now. Removed the manual pedal box and installed the auto pedal box. What a pain in the arse. 2.5 hours but it felt like 8. Had to remove the fuse box and drop the steering wheel as low as possible to get the old box out. And ask me why I cleaned and painted the new pedal box? No clue. No one will see it.

I am not to your level for sure. But.... I had it out, and knew it would never get painted while installed.
