thanks, luckily it's only surface rust. Good ol Arizona vehicles.
IMO, it's totally what makes the truck...I would keep it just like that, maybe lightly sand the rough spots, and do a satin clear to keep it just like that. Refresh all the mechanicals and get it in top running condish, and keep those tires, that stance makes it look badass.

What engine/trans combo is in there?
I do like the "look" of it, not sure what route i wanna take it yet. It's has the AMC 360/TH400/Quadratrac full time 4wd
Thanks for that. I should probably replace my battery cables at some point. Figure might as well upgrade. Also looked into the bigger alt upgrade. Not like I need it but since I am there... Also figure do the headlight harness and call it a day. This is all next year stuff. Thing is I want the alt to just bolt in. I know grinding down stuff for the GC or Durango one is no big deal but... So I checked with a guy I know who rebuilds alts among other things. He feels he can get up to about 150 amps out of a stock XJ alt with the proper parts. That would make it a straight bolt in for me which is what I want. Now I know that technically those alts that you posted don't fit an '00. Thinking maybe a connector. But regardless why do guys go through the trouble, for 136 amp GC one, when they can just buy the Autozone one you posted?
Still have to grind the bracket.... at least, I had to grind the one on my '92. Not sure if the bracket is different on the 97+ or if the 136amp option just came with a different one, but it's definitely a bigger alt.

All fixed up and charging perfectly. Thankfully it appears no damage done to the alternator itself.
Sweet!

I had a couple of the converter boxes laying around. So this is free to do minus one pigtail which should cost $5. If it ends up failing down the road, I will do the plug and play one.
