I found some polished alum wheels that will work better.I got to looking at the wires I think they would be on on the front but not the rear.

Well had to get my radius arm bushings replace. My youngest son got it all one but we were held up because one of the spacers were tore up. I ordered 2 spacers for a little over $6.00 from the parts dept at a dealer.

Looks good Cliff. How hard was it to get that big nut loose? I need to do the same thing. Also, how tight did you bolt it back on? Your truck looks so much cleaner than mine!

I don't know,but my son said it wasn't hard ( no issues with rust). Some one had replaced them before and did it improperly and used grade 5 bolts to hold the brackets on. So I went to Fastenel and bought grade 8 bolts and nuts (locking) Also had to replace one spacer which I ordered from the dealer. Easy to do but time consuming, you will need to drill out the rivets that hold both brackets

Thanks Cliff, was wondering about the bolts in your picture. I will give it a try, they have never been replaced, actually every bushing should get replaced, they are all original and really showing worst for wear!! (But the truck does drive straight, just getting a little loose)

The bushings I got from summit racing. Energy Suspension radius arm bushing really makes a difference.

Well I done good. I picked up a set of 93 Cherokee power seats and a center console for $30.00

How hard will it be to adapt those seats to your truck?

Doesn't look to hard to do. Just some steel flat plate for the rear of the seats. I will have to take my time.

I went to NewbieF100 gallery he mounted the same seats in his truck.

 

[fatherdoug]

I would like to see how that turns out.

I knew I had seen a thread on this seat swap before! It was well written with pic's

I will post it up when I am done. There is still need to get a few more things to wire up the power to the seats and some plate steel.
