I have a black ‘89 YJ Laredo. Let me just say.. Holy crap this islander is in way better condition than mine! I need to do some paint work and I plan on repainting the front grille black to match the body (laredo came with chrome but it wore off from rad. heat and the elements. I plan on getting a stainless grille in case I want the OE look.) I also want to replace the halogens with LEDs so it’s safer for night driving.
I think the chrome grill was installed in front of the original metal. I had a black YJ and just removed the chrome grill to expose the painted grill behind it.
@ Yeah I think that’s what my dad said. I’m not too confident in chrome paint so a stainless grille would be my better option. Also the synchros are shot for 1st and 2nd so they’re a pain to shift between. Any recommendations? I could just get a new AX-15 since it’s the 4.2l.
Man i am loving this format. So much information in the most efficient manner possible. Picking up my "less than loved" yj today and a quick overview of interor components was exactly what i was looking for
Love your no nonsense approach. Just like the Mike Fn Garage channel. Sticking to a project all the way to completion. Instructive and entertaining. So many channels out there with barn find rescues, power washes and “will it runs” that never amount to actual projects.
Good call on replacing that windshield seal. Once you pop those factory seals, they never seal up right again. It took me until late into my second YJ to figure that out 😂😂
It should only thing that really kills jeeps are the people who own them that do the cutting into them to put big tires on them and 500 after market parts that are not needed.
What is the name of the part that the speaker mounts onto? The metal piece behind the dash, I've been looking everywhere for one and I can't even find a name for it
Hey! Lobe the clean up, I'm currently working on my 89 YJ. How do I remove the center console? I'm having problems with the screw/fastener in the front.
Cerakote makes a wipe-on trim restorer that may work for it. It does a fantastic job if you work it in really well and clean the parts thoroughly. It is very much a get it right the first time kind of product. When I applied it to my Tj's fenders, it did a great job but I was a little stingy with the wipes and there's visible smearing if you're five feet away and closer. If I had used more of it to let it soak in on each fender and worked it a bit more I think they would have looked absolutely brand new. Heard great things about the longevity of the product as well.
@@Jerod_Helt been trying to find one, dead jeeps in NH sent two they said were from 90 YJ's but neither was the same as my original ? Thanks I'll keep lookin
I'm in California and have a 1988 Jeep wrangler yj carburetor. I can't get it to pass smog. smog place said evap leak, egr problem, carb is new. These jeeps are notorious for failing smogs

@ I’ve never had a problem with the transmissions so I have any advice on that. But goodluck and thanks for watching my videos 👍
An OEM radio with a cassette deck, this has just become my favorite channel....! Brilliant...!
You are the most reliable poster on TH-cam. Thanks again Jerod.
It is not a cleaning video, it is pure therapy 👍🏻
Love the silent builds. Steady progress extremely satisfying

YOU HAVE A YELLOW ISLANDER! I have a blue one:DDD I love the yellow really pretty!
I stumbled upon your channel and love the cash register sounds when got to buy stuff. There is no "$1,000 Jeep" . I do love my Jeeps. Carry On Sir!
Awww, sweet transformation. Looking forward to the next video. “Hi Walter “. 👍🏻🇺🇸
This video shows it’s still cheaper to fix an old one then it is to buy a new over priced car.

You got some good deals on your parts. Jeep gets better and better. Keep it up 👍.

Good Jeep update.
Thanks, and Woof to Walter.
Judicious spending is great to see.
This is very good content, I have been following your channel since the Beetle series!
Congrats for you amazing work 👌🏼
Keep posting !!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE EVERYTHING!!!!! ATOTALLYA WSOME TRANSFORMASTION!!!! GREAT VIDEO AND THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!
the only car you can do all that and more yourself, good job
Nice work. YJs are a little underrated. They are a good base to build a solid Jeep on..
I saw a 70's AMC Jeep, classic
Awesome project! 👏
Awesome job!
Love that dash. I had a 1987 manual soft-top.
I think it’s the best looking dash in a wrangler
Where’d you find the OEM carpet? Looking to do some interior restoration pretty soon.
Very very interesting i like it👌🏻👌🏻 perfect finishing
Nice work dude!
Nice transformation
Another satisfying nice video by JNH Classics production, love these silent builds. Is the engine running already or will this be another video?
Thanks! It doesn’t run yet, but hopefully it will soon
Great content
Cleaned up great, but I think you should have put paint on the floor pans before putting the carpet down on them.
Hello from Buenos Aires good work
Your doing a great job! She’s cleaning up nice!
I love your videos
Where'd you get the yj key tag, and the new stickies for the shift knobs? What a difference a little bit of time and elbow grease makes. Looks great 👍
Ebay
You got some decent deals on used OEM parts - makes a big difference - but will it run????? :)

Should just be a few screws holding it down
i was expecting that dashboard could be painted. Since it's faded out, a nice matte black could be nice.

Nice! Where are you getting all these OEM parts so cheap? eBay?
Ebay and Facebook marketplace 👍
Looks great but Walter didn’t say hi.
I don’t know what his deal is… I guess he’s not interested in being a TH-cam star anymore.
@@Jerod_Helt maybe he’s not a Jeep guy.
@@danielbardan5697 yeah, maybe he’s holding out for the Land Cruiser 😀
👍
COULD YOU SELL AND SEND TO ME THE OLD WINDSHIELD HOLDER GASKET?
Sorry I threw it away
I envy the lack of rust.
👍👍✌️
Not a cheap jeep.... The used parts seem priced high.. 100x better!
There's no such thing as a cheap jeep
That's was not expensive at all...
