Took me six hours to rip this thing out of my dash. Now I've gotta replace the waterpump by Monday but a huge storm is coming in tomorrow night so I'll be doing that one in the morning.

Hmmm..Only being able to see the angle of the door jam, I'm guessing '97-'01 Jeep TJ?
I installed a AC system in mine, which meant I had to plumb everything myself, and yes....My dash was in my front seats as well!!!!:eek:

Good Job!!!

Replacing heater cores really sux hard!! I used to be a mechanic and I always cringed when I had to do that. A late 70's-early 80's Cadillac was the worsed! You had to loosen the bolts from the fender!!

Thanks, yeah it's a '98 TJ. Wow, I was glad mine didn't have A/C. I bet that was a tough job.

I have always planned on driving it ten years then promoting/retiring it to a hobby vehicle and buying something else for the hard communting. I will hopefully be getting a new truck in the next couple of months and then I can spend all the time I want with the jeep, and without any time crunches.

Cool!
Well, mine did not come with AC, but I wanted it, so I installed one...Little bit of fab work, but fun..:rolleyes:

Yeah, I just sold my Jeep..:( I geared it, lifted it, and crawled it, all over the place....I wish I had a TJ that I can tinker around with now...I can change the entire suspension(shocks, spring, anti-sway bar, and front trac bar), in under 3 hours!!! Don't ask me how I know...:)

Well, good luck with the truck, and have fun with the Jeep..Remember, Keep the rubber side down!!!

Keeping in theme,

Here's a pic of mine, in light mod form....It only got bigger from here...lol

Wow, yeah--I have read that they are pretty much all hard. Everything that I read said that it should take me between six and ten hours. I think when all finished I had put in twelve, but I split it up between three days. I figured it would be a good initiation if I planned to do other work on it in the future.

Hey thats a nice looking Jeep. Is that the Chili Pepper Red? I almost went with that color and after I got the green I still thought it would have been nice.

Suspension is next for me after I get the truck and my budget is ballanced.

Just go into it knowing that it will take some time. I had read a lot about how much of a pain it was and I just made sure that I had enough time to get the job done. If I hadn't been prepared for that it would have been a lot worse. I only had to make two emergency trips to the Sears Tool department during the project.
