after 26 hard years the starter went out and after banging on it for a week to start it it gave out totally so she got a new one

just been driving it as i bought a fun little project its not a jeep but here is a picture anyways :P also means more to come on the jeep :P gi

the stump is about 36" and i have a bit more flex than that i say not bad for short arms :P and thanks also waiting on my one ton steering as today it started to steer funny kinda annoying as this is my DD

been along time on updated my parts got delivered in bad shape so i had to send them back :( on a plus note flex pics!

update she is now running and driving again new rear bumper is now flat black bed liner is out of it and the bed liner for it is ordered just waiting on brown santa to come and drop off my parts i want :)

the new bumper is started only had about ten minutes to mess with it but i got the metal cut and welded just need to add tow hooks and then grind it all down do a second pass sand it down and start painting

after the bumper and flares are cut i will be doing a rattle can paint job changing the color to a metal flake purple

well i feel like i am talking to myself at this point but i will keep going full tune up today plugs wires cap fuel filter air filter and oil changes all the way around and greased everything she is almost ready for a real wheeling trip Ordered some goodies for the comanche today :yes: keep tuned in to find out what they are :brows:

put my seat in this morning and the old bumper that was bent to go rescue my dad in his toyota who went mudding without me and got stuck about a mile back in the woods also turns out my fix wipers didn't work :doh: stopped on the way home for some snacks

hey just read most of your build thread it is awesome after i bought my comanche i saw you at Jeep Jam man your jeep is awesome just want you to know that

Rust is fixed as of tonight became too late to take pictures sorry for the long gap for people that are watching the thread . :MJ 1: . Drove it over to the house today using a milk crate as a seat (its four blocks away in a small town) Also rear bumper that was made ready to put on got sold to some one with an XJ that offered me too much to not build another :thumbsup: more pictures to come tomorrow

Photo time :) not to bad rust wise just gonna need some TLC

so i would need to buy or weld a new base for buckets?

i know this is kinda old but i am wondering if i can take my bench seat out and put in xj buckets?

well update on my project i took out the dash bench seat the flooring stuff headliner and got my bumper welded up and mounted and am in the process of painting it pictures to come :)
