huricane4 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Looking good. Just a question, is that copper tubing you are using for brake lines? Thanks :) Yes its copper tubing? Certified brake lines
MJCARENA Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Never heard of copper brake lines. Googled it and learned something new. Pretty cool, easier to work with and corrosion resistant

earl*t Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 Have you considered fiberglass fenders and bedside buldges? The topic is on this site. I like you choice of components. Several appear to be used in industrial applications? Are your tires Pitbulls, size?

Several appear to be used in industrial applications? Are your tires Pitbulls, size? Yeah i thought about it but i think i just go with Bushwacker Fender Flares, Yes i like industial component (more metall, less plastic :thumbsup: ) It is Pitbull Rocker 39.5x16.5x16 But I have only borrowed them from my brother, But will probably buy the same tires or maybe Super Swamper LTB 40x16x16
huricane4 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Posted February 11, 2013 Bought a 1989 Comanche Pioneer Metric Ton yesterday... And with an Ignition Coil change it started up :) Will be used for spare parts...
Comanche County Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 He's the Jimoshel or Wildman of Sweden! Nice tow rig btw!
huricane4 Posted February 11, 2013 Author Posted February 11, 2013 He's the Jimoshel or Wildman of Sweden! Nice tow rig btw! Okey hopes that's a good thing :) Yeah it's a nice truck, a friend of mine is a truck driver.
Comanche County Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 Haha, yeah a good thing, those guys own about 15 plus MJs back here in the states. You got a ways to go but if you can round up all the Swedish MJs you could catch em. :thumbsup: The more MJs the better!

huricane4 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Posted March 23, 2013 Well slow progress forward... Started to work on the E-brake But need anothe disc with less depth... becouse the caliper hits the transfercase. New headliner And a heavy duty CB-Radio antenna
MiNi Beast Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Longer the whip the longer she plays with the tip! Looks good brother. :D

huricane4 Posted April 26, 2013 Author Posted April 26, 2013 Did the first test drive today.... and i need to do something about the brake, pedal went down to the floor, so have to buy a bigger master cylinder. Some Sheet Metal The E-brake...
GirsMJ86 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 This thing is a beast, I love it. It's the Hot Dog of the 'manche world, except you're thinking with portals*. :thumbsup: *sorry, it's late. I had to...
huricane4 Posted April 26, 2013 Author Posted April 26, 2013 What 1-1/8 or bigger MC would be a direct fit (besides brake lines)? Thanks Rockwell_B1 :)
huricane4 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Posted April 29, 2013 The rear bumper is going to live dangerous ;)

GirsMJ86 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 what is this "portal" yall keep talking about? Something every MJ should have. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_axle
jeepmarine312 Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 OMG THATS FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! but I'm 100% sure thats expensive as heck...
huricane4 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Posted May 3, 2013 Ordered a set of Bushwacker Cutout and a Airflow Snorkel today :) first off sweden looks awesome to go offroading, haha, and second, huricane4.... AMAZING TRUCK, just pure beauty... thank you for showing this to the world.... also i got a question, what is this "portal" yall keep talking about? Well we got some nice forrest but we don`t have places like MOAB :( OMG THATS FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! but I'm 100% sure thats expensive as heck... Well the car cost me 15000:- And the Axle 20000:- .... But a Front Dana 44 and 2 ARB and new gear would have cost alot more...
H3RESQ Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 has anyone come up with an effective aftermarket portal that can be used on different common axle housings??? You wouldn't think it would be too complicated... You can buy a set from Mopar - D44 front and D60 rear, only $25,000 for the pair! or just order them from dynatrac who actually makes them.
sang_route Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 For your MC, Find one outa a late 80's E-350 ford van. Bolt in and the fittings are the same(little filling). Buddy just did his and I can't wait till I can do mine.
