  1. When did the topper happen?

    Dogs!

    This is Millie. She is a 5 year old Catahoula Cur. She thinks she is poor, sad, and neglected. You can clearly tell that she has a rough life by the picture of her laying on my bed. She is also drama. She will walk around the house sighing if she doesn't get what she wants. If you go in the bathroom to shower, she will follow you and stare at the space heater until you turn it it (our house stays around 74 degrees, and we have a gas fireplace in the basement that is on a lot).
  3. Any updates on this truck?
  4. Lucky! I should swing up to the yard near me that my brother got his 2nd J10 from. He might have one.
  5. You just need to get a pile of parts ready first. Might as well be productive!
  6. Looks good! Not going to lie, I'm a little jealous of your 10 slot grill.
  7. I seem to remember that he said he was going to turbo this truck on Facebook. I wonder what ever happened to that.
  8. I wonder how much the turbos harm the visibility. It looks like a huge obstruction to me (not that that matters as much for a drag car).
  9. This is good to know. I wonder how much a JY would charge for one vs the price of a regular trailer axle (factor in the time to clean it up, pull it out of the vehicle, make it fit the trailer). But it would be easy to get parts for it because its a minivan.
  10. I already have one guy who was asking me how much I will want for this truck once I get my straight body panels on it and get it running and driving. Plus I will need to check with the guy who tried to buy my blue truck from me back when it was white. In other news, hopefully I will be able to start on this next week.
  11. I need to get it running first, but maybe I'll be able to make a trip out your way next year. Or maybe 2022.
  12. The Ugly Trucking only has 82,000 to hit that mark. My 97 XJ only needed 87,000 to hit that mark. Sadly, the XJ got scrapped (it was really rusty) and I will probably sell the Ugly Truckling before it hits 400k. I would love to hit 400k on the blue truck though!
  13. I mean, you can at least make sure that your pictures aren't blurry, the truck is cleaned off/out, and the truck isn't sinking in the ground. That rear bumper is beautiful though.
  14. Well, if you find your way out towards us come spring time, please let us know, even if you are in a Subaru (side note, did you know that Subaru backwards is U R A Bus? )
  15. I would be willing to bet that that truck was not from GA originally, based on the rust. It says that it needs brake work too. That seems like a lot of money for a project truck.
  16. You do make a good point, but IMHO, painting a tailgate would make it no longer NOS, similar to putting a tire on an NOS wheel, even if it is never installed, I wouldn't call that wheel NOS.
  17. What color did you end up going with? It looks similar to the color of mine.
  18. Perhaps it is an issue with the cable. Maybe buy another one and try it. If that doesn't fix it, you should be able to return it.
  19. Huh. I am all out of ideas then.
  20. On my truck (granted, it was with an 8.8 swap), we cut off all of the brackets and just used the stock MJ shock mounts on the U-bolt mounting plate.
  21. I am looking forward to hitting 200k in my MJ. I have about 37,000 miles to go.
  22. Wait a minute, they want 3 grand for a truck that needs a motor, has a smashed tailgate, and has (probably) had a poor repaint (based on the fender badge location)?
  23. @eaglescout526, I think it is time for you to join the club. On a serious note, that price seems steep for one that has been painted. Also, I wonder why it has the hinges on it. I am looking at my NOS one now and it doesn't have the hinges. It seems like it has definitely been used some too. It could be shelf wear, but I would be willing to be that this tailgate was an early takeoff, not NOS.
  24. I don't know if I want to play with the Renix harness more than I have. For now, the current one is OK. I have time to make a decision.
