there they are, i must have had the wrong url... i'm fairly rusty at the whole forum crawling thing, but i think it's coming back to me.

 

Looks like a good starting point, what are your plans......

The Orville top FITS!!! I am progressing!

 

Lookin good.

 

Nice Start Whats Your plan

 

Almost on the road! All i have to do to drive is replace the oil pressure guage line. Replace the hub seals. Drill another hole in the fuel tank for the fuel return hose and fitting. Replace the rod/part that the clutch and brake mount to under the floor. Bolt down my seats and I'm ready to drive.

I've started stripping the Orville/ Meyers top and am almost ready to sand and paint. Although i want to weld a bead around the top lip to sturdy it up. Then I'll strip the jeep paint, 2 places to weld patches. The rear passenger panel where the spare tire mounted stock, and a small spot under the driver door. Then with bondo, primer, sanding, and paint. And finally i'll apply the Fibertron interior and re-upholster the seats and i'll be finished. I'm hoping to have it all done within 6 weeks. But i'll be on the road in one.

I just ordered a wiring harness today from 4wheelinjunkie.com $225 for a harness that seems to be as good, if not better than a "Painless Wiring Kit." The main reason i think its better is the fact that its made for CJ5's with the dauntless 225 v-6.

 

yes i can... I was just about to decode mine

 

Please let me know what you find I really appreciate it
