Re: Ptjsk '72 Jimmy Build

Great Job! Interested to follow along with a build that leaves the body on the frame. I am doing the same as I have no room to take it off. Thanks for sharing.

LOL! Yea, I probably should have just taken the body off.

The whole idea was to just rebuild the motor, do a few things and get it going.

Unfortunately, it just grows and I may as well do this now.....and so on.

Re: Ptjsk '72 Jimmy Build

Another update!

Went ahead and ordered the Original Air Stage II kit for the replacement of the old air compressor, and swapping out to 134a refrigerant.

Looks like I'll have to remove the original factory AC brackets. Not something I like to do, but it's a must with the new compressor.
