Nas Escobar Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Nice!! Another vert joins the forum. You should fix that top and if the window is not glass, you should fix that as well! Quote
amistydj Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Posted June 15, 2014 Im actually getting a new top and Im stuck between a plastic window or glass, mine is plastic right now Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk Quote
Psych0matt Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Definitely go with glass, it's worth the little extra:thumbsup: Quote
amistydj Posted June 15, 2014 Author Report Posted June 15, 2014 Definitely go with glass, it's worth the little extra:thumbsup: glass is a definate guarantee not to leak in the long term I suppose. it does cost a bit but it should be worth it. http://www.convertibletopguys.com has good prices on top kits Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk Quote

George Posted June 18, 2014 Report Posted June 18, 2014 Welcome to the wild world of w bodies. You will like those Thunder volt plug wires, very nice. Are those wearever ceramic? I've got the ceramics, a slight improvement over semi metallic ( made a HUGE difference on the 2000 jeep grand cherokee though). How close are you to the Iowa border? I'm 10 mi. south of the border near I35. Quote

George Posted June 18, 2014 Report Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) Is yours one of the '95's that got the 11 1/4in. rotors like the '96-'97's. I will be swapping my wheel bearing mount/ strut holder to the later ones that allow the larger brakes. It's a good time to do this if installing new struts and new brakes anyway. Only thing needed is the wheel bearing mount/ strut holder as it moves the caliper out farther for the larger rotor. We might have to meet in lakeville for ice cream sometime.

I believe it comes with the 10in comparing them with the rear ones, but I did get the 11 1/4 wearable rotors which cost about $4 bucks more ea. I prefer larger disc, definately go with the 11 1/4 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk Quote
