KCsurfer420 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Well with the 2wd rear leaf packs and a add a leaf that have been well broken in, and 8" coils with the heavy @$$ winch bumper on the front she sits closer to a 6" lift. Shes actualy pritty stable in off camber situations. But yeah that cliff face had be clintching my seat i will admit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCsurfer420 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 So it's been a while since I posted in this thread, but I've got some big changes coming soon for the MJ. I just recently sold off one of my other crawlers so its time to give the MJ some much needed attention. I recently picked up a 94ford dana 60 that will be going in to the MJ. I just need to find a 14bolt with disks for the rear. I have mangled the short bed on the truck so my new plan is to stretch the rear a bit and installing a long bed that I currently have and bobbing the rear of the bed to Mach the length of the short bed. I also acquired a passenger side b pillar that I am going to use to replace the one that's currently trashed. Once all of that is done ill guile 2x6x3/8 rockers in and build a full exo cage around the new sheet metal to try and help keep it dent free this time.... I'll post some pics of the MJ soon along with the d60 and the bed that I will be using.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87 COMANCHE PIONEER Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 On your bronken output shaft, is that cardan joint the same as on the front drive shaft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huricane4 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Nice Picture! Must be bad material in the output shaft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCsurfer420 Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 The broken out put was for the front side of the transfer case to the front drive shaft. So to answer your question, that is the front drive shaft contacted to that yoke that was connected to the front out put for the t case that sheered. I'm guessing week casting material but who knows. That Was 2 years ago, now the t case has the wide chain and gears out of a Chevy 231.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCsurfer420 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 I haven't been doing much work to the truck latley except piling parts up to clean up the passanger side b pillar and a wonton swap, But I have put new 37"crepie crawlers and TMI DIY bead locks in it and wheeling the crap out of it. I thought id share some recent wheeling pics so you could see where we stand with this project. I plan on replacing the short bed with a bobed long bed and using linger leafs to move the axel back, and replacing the passanger side b pillar with a mint one I cut of a truck in the junk yard, then replacing the rockers with 2x6x3/16 square tubing. LEt me know what you think... Here is my new sticker to piss off the wrangler guys, as I am a bit of a $#!& talker on the trail, but I don't mean to offend any one so rember its a JOKE I too once owned a wrangler.

KCsurfer420 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Well I've dobbed it the "crapmanche", it's curently sitting in my garage on jack stands minus the axles (sold em) and bed ( scraped it ) it will be getting a flat bed / truggie rear soon. I have a dana 60 / 14b (5.38 gears) combo that's just staring at me in till I have time to swap them in 538 along with a 231/300 doubbler and TG hydro asist. I also have a tj buggie that I have been enjoying so the MJ is on the back burner for the time being. I did how ever replace both crumpled b pillars and welded on some liquid iron industries front stiffners on it. I'll up date with some pics soon.

KCsurfer420 Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 So I guess I should update where I'm curently at with this project. It's still sitting on jack stands in the garage but I have made a little progress on it. The b pillar skins and Ricker pannels are trashed on this thing after a few years of hard wheeling. I found both b pillars out of 2 diffrent mj's in the yards around me that were clean and straight so I cut them out do the jy trucks with a saw zaw and brought them home where I proceeded to drill all of the spot welds out of them to sepporate just the b pillar outer skins. I did the same thing with the skins on my mj and once all 4 skins were sepporate I burned the new straight skims on to my mj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCsurfer420 Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 I have also removed all of the don't suspention as well in prep for the 3 link that I'll be building for it., I have cleaned up the 231/ 300 doubbler and 300 ordered a seal kit for the 300 as its a leaking pile right now. I will be pulling the dash and custom making a dash that will hold the auto meter guages that I have for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
