Still getting the white stuff.

Oh man . Really...

.subscribed and now I get pics .....

Well I can say you have a great little base to work with. Jasper online you say....ummm curious to what year? I'm here to tag along and enjoy the progress. And I here 2nd the "Old paint" as well.

Awoke from my nap to this group flying over. Not sure what they are but I enjoy the rumbling.

Axle joint be my guess. Grab em and shake them they move they click get it fixed.

well been a min. We have snow now. I also have 4wd again. Swapped that tcase in finally. Drop the driveshaft cause to short. Other one is working but still gots the vibes. All in good time. So doing good for the last week added some system restore to it, helping some in town, then pulled tierod end out again, darn bung had a spur. So quick weld up from buddy and back to doing work. Must be smooth driving cause the wrench on the hood rode almost 40 miles before I noticed it. 😲. But hauled some wood today and fixed to be ready for this big freeze they saying now. I even got to use the 4wd and winch for a spas delivery. Good to carry a snatch block. Check your gear. 😆

Great times this weekend. Having a blast slanging pizza slices and getting to watch these guys fly by all day. I wanna go in the helicopter but 125 a ride is it worth it? Hard days MJ has to endure when I'm out working and playing. Enjoy the day my friends.

I need one also. I was thinking of using a bronze comanche coin..what you think.

No rush now. Let it cure. Let it cure. I'm excited for you. Going to look real good. Ladies like a man with a big bulge serveys say.

But now the big jeep is having stumbling issues. So chasing things down on that. So far every sensor replaced for good measure, plugs swapped just need some wires. Going to get the damn bike out now though. Let the Jeep sit awhile and think about its behavior.

Pops out no linkage. If i get 4lo it will stay but only can with out the linkage. Thoughts are to swap it out for a 231c i have on the shelf, the whole case for now.

Well been a long winter. But happy for the break in the weather and ready for spring. Ready to get on those outside projects and enjoy the daylight for a change. So currently only thing the big jeep 9s good for is idling and winching. So winched the baby jeep at the hauler to bring back to the Trailer Mansion where I will have it sitting on blocks for a bit as Ill be removing the axles and suspension system. Planning a 3-4.5" lift on it with drop brakets I'm thinking. Still keeping things sensable as it is the new work horse pavement pounder. But a little extra clearence with little bigger tires never really hurt anyone...right.. its nice to have that wood heat again as well, i enjoy it when its 81 and I can leave the front door open.. need to install a darn dog door as well as MJ doesnt like inside so much in the 80s. Awaiting for the last sensors to show up for the big jeep and then we can say all sensors are new. Got em cause thats how you fix these jeeps, just replace everything every few years then you good and will have backups. . Get em now before all the traiffs take affect and the partz from china are 3x the already 2x price. However big jeep sure fires up faster and now butns fuel a little better and not so rich...as I'm not rich and gas hasent come down all that much just yet. But soon Ill have the bike back out and that will help save on gas. Also keep that smile on my face.

Made that look professional with the grinder. Nice.

Sure its not a sticking caliber?

Relocation kit perhaps if your trac bar hole is oblonged, otherwise Id stick to factory location with 3in lift. Double measure tac bar compare to draglink for same length. Trac bar sould only need to be about 1" longer then factory if that. I wanna say i was around 3/4" when did my 3" kit.

I picked it up soley for the tailgate and to help out another member. Then took it to buddy as he thought he might put it together for tough truck challenge but apparently he forgot how many projects he had going on. Then told me he had sold it cause wife wanted it out the yard. We didnt do anything to it other then me swapping tailgate.

Maybe 4. Or 5 years ago now. Ill have to check back in the memories for sure but I know I have trip pics. Hauled it to my buddies, wakeboard76 place in Newaygo where he offed it as decided against making a baja ultra rig out of her.

This mj had a v8 with 3 manual speed trans

You ended up with that MJ? What do you do with the drivtrain? I hauled down from WI few years back. Did it still have my tree dent tailgate on it?

Keep exploring, saves me on gas.

Another 4 years building or perhaps 4 years of enjoying..?

Dose that have a frame mount as well for the trac bar?
