Yes. Stop it! I already have complicated feelings about myself...

Remind me how to do the diagnostic test. This all happened in the last 15 minutes. Still out running errands.

Just did it and now I see that the tach needle somehow dropped below the pin!!! How did that happen?Hold the Trip reset button then turn the key to the on position
Pulled the cluster out and flipped the tach needle back to where it should be. It works again. Found three pencils and a plastic fork.
I also installed an under hood trickle charger so I can keep the battery fresh while I'm traveling for work. This was easier right now than moving a couple added problem accessories over to switched power.
Still need to fix the leaky York air line...
i havent seen one but that is a great idea. I have my on a retractable key reel so it is always within reach of where it parksKnowing myself, I am mildly concerned that I will drive away without unplugging the trickle charger.
Is there such a thing as an adapter for an extension cord that is similar to the magnetic power connector on MacBooks? Basically a magnetic quick release plug. I think some deep fat fryers have them.
Years ago, I built a YJ pretty stout and wheeled like that up in WA. I would wheel it on the weekend break it and fix/upgrade it during the week and head back out on the weekend.
There was little left that was Jeep when I was finished. Now fast forward and I have to tell you, I really enjoyed all of the pictures and the hard work you shared with us. Now I like to go beat up my quads and go fishing and wash and wax my Jeep, so in no way am I going to do anything that hard core anymore, I sure liked reading your story though.
Colorado is so much more beautiful than Arizona. Unless you like beige and dust then Arizona is your spot.
Thanks again for the awesome build thread. I can't wait to read more.
For me, I absolutely hate the dash. The YJ dash was much more tolerable, and I'd take a CJ over any of them. If it was even feasible to change my TJ's dash to a YJ's dash, I'd be all over it. I've not looked into it......yet.These things were barely modern when they were new, but who wishes their TJ looked older and more primitive than it really is?
You know I bet you could actually put a CJ dash in your tj. I am with you way more cooler looking, but I bought the TJ over a YJ or CJ because I have to have A/C. My old YJ had AC but it was a box that hung under the dash and cooled off the knees. It was not very useful to be honest.For me, I absolutely hate the dash.
