It could be worse. You could be an XJ owner, which means you don't crimp anything. On your best day you'd use wire nuts, which probably means you were out of chewing gum.
Hey now. I still miss mine.

They'd attempt a loop-the-loop if it was in front of them.
I'm so glad to see I am not the only one who feels that way about his TJ... (I even gave mine a pat on the spare tire last night, when walking by it in the garage)
Changed out the safety relief valve on the OBA system from 150 to 175 PSI, and that fixed the sudden discharge issue. The 150 rated valve was opening at about 144 PSI, the pressure switch is rated to shut down at 145. With the new valve in place, the first time pressurizing the system it shut down at about 148 - so there certainly was a tolerance stackup problem. BUT - 3 subsequent tests had the system shutting down at about 142. Sounds like what we used to call a "Virgin Problem" - first time something behaves differently than subsequent runs. So maybe the 150 would have squeaked by after all - but then again, the temp would change!

Here ya go, I *think* they are indeed different between the years...Can I see some better pics of that a-pillar gauge mount? I've seen them for sale but it seems like the a-pillar is somehow different on 03-06?
My tractor motor is hurt at 202k miles. But here is a cool old Datsun.

What happened...what broke ?
A couple cylinders are low on compression.
scoping out the black friday purchase and thinking about if today is the day... or tomorrow.
