Correct. You could add lockouts, and most people did, but they were aftermarket. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Wilson_™ 6,566 Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) i read you can use ford ranger lock outs on the xj jeeps ... just a few simple changes ... I'll see if i can dig that up. @jeepwm69 it's post here on the site http://bleepinjeep.com/ that's for the xj jeep conversion, I'm not sure on those older models.

87Iroc 344 Posted February 3, 2021 ON a business trip years ago I went through a museum in Chatham up in Canada. About an hour east of Detroit I think. They do high end restorations and have a small museum. Very cool cars inside. Some 30's hollywood cars are there. Duesenburgs and such. Very cool 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
