When you install the adapter get a mic on the input shaft (via the inspection plate) to help venter it all up

(03-25-2013, 10:21 AM)JB3 man, I would have put that 116 chassis up for sale again as a parts vehicle or parted it out before crushing it. Easily would have tripled your investment on that car. Lots of rare parts just got crushed that those of us in the rust belt would have appreciated!

cool swap though, look forward to updates

(03-25-2013, 01:42 PM)Simpler=Better A pipe plug if just fine, or you can slap a piece of flat stock and some RTV on there.

(03-28-2013, 03:29 PM)jenyus waiting on my v6 adapter plate, so havent been able to do much.

pulled out all the vacuum lines and ghetto wiring from previous owner.

got started on my new motor mounts. cut them out of 1/2" steel. will weld brackets on them to attach to bushings on frame side mount. using 2"x.250" DOM tubing and 3/4" grade 8 bolts for the motor mounts, should be strong enough i think.



also mounted the turbo. sticking with a stock, non intercooled turbo for now.

(04-14-2013, 04:41 PM)jenyus took a break from the hard stuff and got my speedomoter set up. its from a 77 toyota.
seems to have worked!

77 toyota speedomeeter on righ jeep on left. they have almost exactly the same speed range so it should work perfectly.

looks factory! only difference is the yota doesnt have a trip meter, so i covered up the other slot. I clamped the two together and redrilled the jeep face for the toyota holes. everything is toyota except for the face

cant even tell

back dremeled out

(04-14-2013, 04:41 PM)jenyus toyota r150 with ax-15 input shaft, trail gear v6 adapter plate and gear drive transfercase with trail gear 4.7:1 gears.

(09-24-2013, 10:20 AM)Simpler=Better Lookin' good!

You will definitely blow the oil cooler line though. The peak oil pressure is around 100psi, and guys have had clamped smooth pipes fail. A quick flare with a propane torch and ball peen would be better than nothing. Or have a local shop press a nice flare onto it.

All this Jeep talk is making me itch to pull my crapcan out of the woods

(09-24-2013, 12:29 PM)JB3 I love how this is turning out. Whats your criteria for what you paint pink? Is she selecting the accent bits?

I used the same piece for my GM throttle bit, amazing how they all work, now we know that GM, Jeep, and MB have a common throttle cable/idle advance square hole size. Im wondering if its some kind of industry standard

(09-26-2013, 03:43 AM)jenyus Okay thanks! In the past I've welded little nubs onto the hard line to give the clamp something to bite onto but I like your idea a lot more! What kind of crapcan do you have?

I've got a DJ5 frame/232 I6/3spd auto, 2wd. Right now It's got the DJ5 mail truck body on it, which isn't mine but will be swapped for a CJ5 body. It needs new brake lines and possibly wheel cylinders, a LOT of pressure washing under the hood, and some de-rigging on the carb & linkage. Could probably have her on the road if I spent a Saturday and $150 on it (Plus $100 for some used tires that aren't dry rotted)

[misty eyes] one day she will have my 617, sm465, np205, heavier axles, etc....I almost have all the parts. Flywheel/clutch R&D is ongoing [/misty eyes]

(09-26-2013, 10:55 PM)sassparilla_kid So wait a minute here, is this thing used for only offroad? Otherwise I'm curious how you'll be able to register it as a diesel since the engine is older than the chassis? Or is there something I'm missing here?

That would be pretty cool with an om617 in it!

We live in a place where smog is only required at the time of sale. I just won't be able to sell it. Otherwise, I will "sell" it to a friend in another state that will let me register it with the older engine, register it as a diesel and then transfer it back into California. Totally legal right?

(09-27-2013, 03:35 PM)jenyus Okay good to know. It's not hooked up to anything. So it's just pulling atmosphere right now

So when I cracked the injector lines and hand primed the pump, i met resistance and diesel leaked from underneath the hand pump. Is that normal?
