I believe I have one in bburg that belongs to a complete set of aftermarket gauges that came with the YJ. Wasn't going to use the gauge set cause the oil and water are mechanical. I'll let you know this weekend when I get into town unless Hippie wants to make a trip to the basement this week and look through my piles of shit.

Sure thang mang. If I can't sell the CJ as a rolling chassis I'll also have the factory '79 tach. Not sure what you need it for/how nice it has to be.

Well, I want something to mount on the steering column. Nothing fancy, just working and fairly accurate.

Yea I'm not sure where it is. New roomie turned our basement into a man cave, which is really cool, but my pile o parts is now moved and disorganized. And I'm looking for a tach amongst hoods, fenders, grills, springs, coils, doors, tops.....doesn't really stick out too much. Let me see if I can dig it up later tonight or tomorrow. Sorry.

I have what appears to be a factory YJ tach.

I can bring it to the meeting or if you want to swing by blacksburg to pick it up. Either throw me a few dollas for it or commit some of your expertise to my build when the time comes to get my POS motor running correctly.

Factory YJ Tach? In Dash? I'm needing one that mounts on a pedistool. Got any pictures of it Nick?


Oh yeah, if I help you get it running, I don't wanna hear any belly aching about how much the pieces I tell you to buy cost..... :flipoff2:
