1984 CJ-8 Dash


Submitted by 84scrambler on August 22nd, 2011

I went off of the original dash that Jesse_at_TLT submitted. I double checked all of the dimensions and had to do a few modifications (perhaps variation from manufacturing), so double check the numbers. I used calipers where ever I could and the rest was done with a tape measure so it should be within a 1/16”. My scrambler had a Loredo trim package so my dash came with the clock and RPM gauge which are included in the model.

A few things to note, the original radio was modified on my dash so it has the aftermarket cutout. All of the rectangular indicator lights on my dash had an over-sized right side to them, I left it out as I didn’t see much of a benefit for it. Finally I didn’t have any good reference points to measure the curved lips that make up the inside of the glove box, I approximated when I created all of those curved surfaces, starts, stops, and radii so just keep that in mind.
