Novak Conversions Jeep Wrangler TJ engine mounts

What did you do to your TJ today?

Don’t export TJ’s have electric adjustable headlights? I think I read somewhere they do

I wish …😂 all of the ones I’ve seen out here have the same adjustable screws to tweak the aim
.maybe in Europe they do?
Maybe you could retrofit some pop-up headlights from a Miata 😂😂

Finally finished the MORE MML install, holy fml that was rough. Apparently the later models of 4.0 engine brackets on the passenger side do not work well with them… had to file some of the bracket down to clear the frame side of the mount.

The stud on the mount is slightly longer than the original, you have to put that nut on first before anything else otherwise you will have to get creative like me. Had to take the lower bracket bolt off, install the nut, then the bracket bolt. The issue is the flange on the bolt hits the stud, so I had to dynafile it off. Luckily you can fish a socket in to snug it back down. Shoutout to @JMT and @E-Ticket for the tips!

Really want to take it for a test drive, but I messed up the OPDA sensor wires when I had to hacksaw off the seized bolt in the mount. Good excuse to upgrade to the crown OPDA that is recommended.

Reuse the OEM sensor for the OPDA. That one is finicky!
 
know where I can snag one? The reviews for aftermarket don’t seem amazing on Amazon. Ofc I accidentally mangled the thing lmao

An old harness? I’m just guessing.

Managed to save my oem CPS that I mangled when cutting out the engine mount during MML install. Had to dremel enough plastic away to get barely enough wire to splice to 😬. Plugged it in and she is running okay it seems!

Finally finished the black magic 1.25” and MORE MML install! But now I gotta pull the front grill to drill an access hole since the bolt started to spin when I was torquing it to 35 ft-lbs lol.

@mrblaine the fact I got a shipping notification within 20 mins of submitting my order is insane! Very impressed with the quality, sad I didn’t get a sticker tho :(
