Just thinking about a KJ project
Thanks. I've probably got at least 200 hours into it but if I had pushed myself I might could have done it in less than half that. A lot of time went into fabricating the exhaust and intercooling pipes.- bamabob

Thanks. I created my own misery with the electrical when I allowed a couple wires to touch that should never touch and fried the pcm.

Hello all. I'm not new to Jeeps having owned a Cherokee and a Wrangler TJ in the past. Currently have an 08 GC. I guess once they get in you blood.... What brought me here is that everyday I drive past an independent repair shop. Sitting out in front of it for at least a year is a very straight...- bamabob
