Re: 83 cj7
You are welcome. Do you have the full gauges 'Laredo' chrome package?
Mine has the chrome grill, all gauges including clock, chrome rims,
stainless bumper and leather on the steering wheel and panic bar. I
believe it was supposed to have a chrome dash plate too, but I got the
dash stripped.
The 4.2 engine, if you have it, has some really strange emissions crap
that has some well known quirks, so post here before spending money,
lots of us know them pretty well.

William Ryan Lawyer; don't judge me on the name, I dont think my people
realized what scum bags lawyers would become when we changed our name
after we came over on the boat. You seem to be pretty much the man
around this group.
