Where can you buy the full replacement floor for an xj? I'm thinking it's my only option.

Christ on a cracker!

Damn what if it was just a rig, you think it'd even be worth it? I'm just so invested in it

Buy body sheet metal here: http://www.c2cfabrication.com/

As for whether it's worth it... how's the frame, rockers, wheel wells, etc? Cuz if you got rot that bad the rest is probably going too...

Also how has your body not fallen off yet? There's almost nothing holding it on.

I just started looking at panels for the truck, and I found a 10% off code, good til the end of the month. HEAT14 should work, but you may have to follow the link found on Facebook, here:

Used to have a 10% military discount, too. Don't know if they still do.

Thanks for the link, I think you are right on with the caster suggestion. I will check it out this week end.


Thanks again.

Anyone know the size hose that can snug fit the bleeders for the brakes. I've seen 1/4"ID on Google. Wanna confirm though

I know 1/4 was very tight on my speed bleeders. I don't think that there is a difference in size between the two though.

Nice. I got some stuff from the on Radi and CCKen's recommendations. Service was good, shipping was fast, and while I haven't actually installed the parts yet I'm certainly impressed.

Belden premium or NGK I like. NGK is numbered. Good for people like me.
