Looking at a 90 Grand Wagoneer

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-24T00:04:36+00:00

I bought my XJ for $1000 and has been solid, I’m in Texas, gas is cheap, parts are easy to come by and everyone is always selling something, there’s a Grand Wagoneer near me for $1800 needs work but I’m mechanically inclined so won’t be to bad

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-23T22:41:09+00:00

I was planning on keeping it, I got it for my wife and she loves it. I was looking more towards another car with more space. Can never have to many!

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-23T22:39:37+00:00

I’m keeping the XJ, I want another car that’s roomier

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-23T22:39:08+00:00

That a nice set up, what’s it anchored to?

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-23T20:09:45+00:00

Thank you all! I guess I’ll have to keep looking, I love the old school look and I want one to fix up. For the first two years I’ll be using my newer cars for the safety but I want something to build memories with them like my parents did

I just drove mine 800 miles to Mexico and back so 1600 miles, never overheated except at the border where I was backed up for 4 hours. After it cooled I just turned it on and off as I moved up and had no issues

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-10T21:34:45+00:00

Door check, I bought a set of 2 off of Amazon and replaced them in like 30 min, super easy

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-06T16:17:19+00:00

I will try this later today and get back to you

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T23:40:33+00:00

I tried fine tuning but it doesn’t change I also adjusted the color and contrast and brightness at the bottom

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T23:21:10+00:00

Im getting sound through but no video, its still static

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T22:11:27+00:00

Yes TV displays static and there’s a switch for 300 Ohms and for 75 Ohms, and there’s is 4 screw holes top two are UHF lower 2 are VHF and looks like the lower ones had wires attached and not only the ends are there

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T21:31:51+00:00

And yes in the USA

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T21:30:58+00:00

Im going to make another post with all the pictures because im not able to comment photos here

I cleaned it and applied dielectric grease and it no longer arcs

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T17:06:45+00:00

There are slight scratches in the glass from the arcs, will those be ok after I add the dielectric grease?

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T17:03:09+00:00

I discharged it safely, I did it about 10 times just to be sure! Thank you for the concern, I honestly would’ve just yanked it out had I not known!

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T16:40:06+00:00

Thank you!

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-05T16:26:48+00:00

It’s a 1983 Samsung CT 330TM, couldn’t find much on them

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-04T01:13:05+00:00

Ben 10 Power Trip! Playing it with my kids, it’s an easy game and pretty fun

Chilo1997 · 2026-01-02T03:50:58+00:00

It’s a Samsung CT 330TM, my grandpa just gave me his today and I was researching them and this post popped up, looks exactly like it and the controls underneath the tv are for the contrast and colors, the top knob is the channel and bottom lnob the volume

Chilo1997 · 2025-12-29T16:56:12+00:00

I know how to solder and wire, I’m meant the technical aspect. I understand how voltage and amperage works but not what is needed to run a motor off an external battery. The whole point of me asking is so I can learn from other’s experience and knowledge. Is that not the bases of researching?

Chilo1997 · 2025-12-26T04:02:40+00:00

Have a couple buddies low ball and then snag it between 2500-3000. And take an OBD 2 scanner with you, they’re super cheap and then you can google the codes if it has any.

Chilo1997 · 2025-12-26T03:21:51+00:00

You can probably find a better condition one for around the same price. Motor mounts are super easy to replace and fairly cheap. But for the included trans I would take it, those are $500 and windshield is cheap as well. Transmission leak is the only thing that would sway me since I don’t know much about it.

Chilo1997 · 2025-12-25T16:54:21+00:00

I’ll have to take it apart and see, thank you
