Welcome! Nice job on bringing the car back from that! Did you cut out and weld in a new piece, or were you able to bring the inner fender/headlight frame back?

10-30-2010, 09:56 PM #8Im really looking like a noob here lol. The car was originally from california so its completely rust free, unfortunatly it has all that emmisions crap on it (evil trap ox) it has all the maintence records from 1985 to the present with everything being done at the dealership, including an $8200 bill for a new block, cylinder head, and radiator lol. Still has the stamped tag from the original owner, the seats have had covers on them since the day it was bought, not even a coffee stain. And it has the original med kit in the back, never used.

10-31-2010, 10:38 AM #10Thanks guys. I didn't plan on joining the forum for a little while, at least until I could actually add some performance goodies lol but there was an M pump for sale in the FS WTB section that I couldn't pass up and I had to join to get it. Next up after the paint and the windshield will be to get rid of the trap ox and put a real manifold on it, get a long runner intake manifold, and put a 3 inch turbo back exhaust, and pull the rack limiter. Oh and the gauges. Eventual plans are to put a gt2256v on it but I'm running out of money lol. Currently the odometer reads 275,000

Lol yea I needed to have the trim on them to help align the hood and fenders. Still here working on this thing, I wish I could say one part was worse than the other but it all sucks lol.
Murphys law. Just drove it around the parking lot before I went to go home and the fan hit the radiator which broke a blade and put a hole in the radiator. Fml.

12-04-2010, 08:36 PM #18Radiator, fan, and windshield all installed, prepped for paint and ready to shoot Monday. I wanted to have this thing on the road before snow flew but it didn't turn out that way. It's going to be so nice to have a good vehicle this winter, last winter I drove an 89 jeep with no carpet or drain plugs and a top that didn't fit right, I would have to brush the snow off the drivers seat in the morning and snow would land on me at lights. Add that to the fact that it was a stick and a 4 banger with a cracked bell housing and it was a pretty shitty winter. Oh and no 4 wheel drive. To go from that to a Mercedes lol......

1996 jeep cherokee, stock with 4cly, 2wd, 5 speed. Basically a high station wagon. I know how you feel! Nothing like driving something that can't do what its known for as a brand! Sold it after about a year of useWhat other parts from that SD can you scrounge before it goes to the highway in the sky? Is the engine blown or anything? Id take tons of engine compartment stuff, even the whole drivetrain if given enough time to grab it

12-04-2010, 09:30 PM #20The jeep was originally a 4x4 but it was broken. The computer took a dump for some reason in late may, a guy offered me 350 bucks for it as is and I took it. As far as the sd its long ogone, he wanted to get rid of it and only got like 200 bucks, it was worth twice that in scrap and way more if he parted it out but I guess he got what he wanted. He ran it on WVO which took its toll, its his third Benz to be killed by rust and veggie oil. After what he did and seeing what it did to my dads powerstroke that shit will never touch my tank. At least I got his valve cover and hood star

12-14-2010, 02:57 PM #24I'm all out of paint or I would lol, two fenders the hood and the door took a whole quart of base and almost a quart of clear. My dad did the painting anyway I've never painted anything before. It figures the first two nights I get to drive it are huge snow storms but I must say I was very impressed, its quite a little tank in the snow. And thanks guys, its nice to hear the opinions of people who actually know what's involved in a project like this, not "So you just took the crushed parts off and put the new ones on?"

02-23-2011, 05:39 PM #35Put my gauges in after staring at them every day for two months, surprisingly not that hard although I still have the stock manifolds on so ill have to drill and tap again. Took it out on the highway and was quite surprised - I'm getting about 22lbs of boost! And yes I know before someone hops on me that I don't need that much, I dunno if my wastegate is stuck closed or what but ill have to figure that one out. I still have yet to get rid of the EGR I don't know if that is contributing to the high boost or not. EGTs maxed out at just over 1000.

Some improvement, but that could be in my head. Now Im getting this aweful low pitched whistling noise when i get over 5lbs of boost that, in my girlfriends words, sounds like Im dragging a cat. Sounds like its coming from the drivers side firewall. Its always something.

The VNT arrived yesterday, a gt2056v from an '05(?) Liberty
Im opting to go with the opposing vacuum and pressure actuators, this seems the easiest form of control even though its not the best.
The stock bracket for the vacuum actuator wasnt big enough for the pressure actuator so i milled it out
I was able to cut the rod on the wastegate and cut the lever that came with it to make them work
Wastegate mounts right up
I made a cardboard template for the vacuum actuator, then measured everything and put it in the Plasmacam program, cut it out and bent it accordingly
Took a little bit of tweaking but everything mounted up right
I was able to get the studs out of the manifold before i left, ill knock out the adaptor between the turbo and manifold tommorow. The only things left are the silicone boot, oil supply lines, and making an exhaust for it.

CNC plasma is amazing for bracketry and other stuff, and you have such a large working area on sheet...
I'm green with envy.
And the turbo actuator and etc looks awesome as well!

I can be wrong, don't take everything I say as verbatim, please fact-check first.

Well its a good thing I mocked everything up, I was planning on making an adaptor .625 thick but the pressure actuator will hit the intake manifold. Solution - make the adaptor 2.00 thick. It's not ideal but it allows me to use both the actuators and the intake manifold.

03-28-2011, 09:10 PM #47The center bearing on the driveshaft went on me, so what little time I had to devote to the turbo project is now being absorbed by fixing it. I was able to make a temporary fix with duct tape (gotta love the hillbilly tech my dad is full of them, like straightening the frame with a big steel bar, tow strap and his excursion). Ordered the part, but as long as I'm going to have the driveshaft out I may as well do the flex disks. Probably this weekend.
