He's more than fair to work with. in fact, write up something with pictures and I'll build a web page... do you want bj's to be the single source or will you sell direct too? either way is fine. I source the stepside fenders, but my supplier is so slow most sales fail because of the delays... bj's talked with me about selling them but they decided not to. not easy to store, or ship... sharing FSJ and other Jeep parts, service and literature is good stuff, saying you've got used parts, jeeps and such is fine. There is an fsj parts list started, doesn't get a lot of traffic so posting here and there isn't a problem. I may even look at those parts... I replaced them on mine, but it's been sitting for so long... not sure if they're any good any more. john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://AMSOIL.com/redirect.cgi?zo=283461 http://creationwiki.org http://johnmeister.com http://wagoneers.com http://fotomeister.us - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On Thu, 10 Dec 2009, Neal Hoover wrote: # John, i apologize for any plugging or marketing up front, but # there were a few people here who were interested in a product that i have # been developing recently, which was completely unavailable prior to now. it # is the window guide that resides on the back side of the divider bar between # the vent window and the main front door windows of all FSJs. further # described, it's the vertical channel that the *leading* edge of the front # door glass rides in. the cushion (or flocking) that isolates the glass from # the metal channel has long rotted out and is mostly gone in lots of rigs. # i made my own during the process of my personal J-truck build because # replacements were nowhere to be found. when i did this, i posted some pics # on my webshots page and this generated some interest. this caused me to # talk to Ryan at BJ's Off-Road and i am now supplying him with these parts # for retail! # so, not to directly plug myself or BJ's, but to alert those who were # interested in these parts when they become available....
