MiNi Beast Posted October 25, 2022 Author Share Posted October 25, 2022 4.0 cause I don't like change and love the reliability of always working on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 New daily driver or what's the plan for it? Looks fairly solid, from what I can see. The fenders are normally gone on my side of the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiNi Beast Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 Daily driver duty. Something with a back seat for the mut and cargo room for some tools. Has some things needing attention but overall it decent shape build from. Plan to add some bumpers and tow points and a few fancy items to aide in the whole luxury overland set-up. Then if the kiddo cares to drive it when she's licensed I will give it to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiNi Beast Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 Got home after the "blizzard" and found the neighbor had snowblowed my drive. He loves showing off his tractor setup. i tell him he dosent have to cause i have 4wd... which after firing the jeep right up, slightly impressed but i built it to do that so it should be expected right? so wanted to play for a few and so found that I was low on gas apparently as I ran out and was unable to get it to fire back up. had to yank it back off the hill the next day with the wj just to be able to get gas into it with out it spilling out the same hole i was filling it. thought I get a pic for the memory books, only to later find i was photo bombed.

MiNi Beast Posted April 14, 2023 Author Share Posted April 14, 2023 Spring time fun, get er ready for some mud. Change some seals and add a speedy sleeve to give that seal a smooth surface. We shall see how long this holds up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiNi Beast Posted May 3, 2023 Author Share Posted May 3, 2023 Gotta love the Michigan spring weather. Green when I went to bed then wake up to 10"+ then didnt stop till today after about 16" of packed snow fell. Finally made it out. Tore up my winch cover even. Wasnt so bad once I got it to stay in 4lo. Thinking i need to replace my tcase. Sooner then later. And get a new shift linkage setup. Cable fancyness blows. Never again.

MiNi Beast Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 Couple more days for the bike, then I reckon its time to get after the jeep and perhaps install the new doors and replace a seal or three. Thinking get some insurance on it tomorrow then be more gun ho to start driving it around since the dog doesnt much like bike season. Get some updates coming before long.

MiNi Beast Posted October 21, 2023 Author Share Posted October 21, 2023 Oh man do I need to spend some much needed attention to the ol girl. She had leaks everywhere. still gets me point a to b however could be smoother. front tires have quite the wear pattern going on. This has been in the back of my mind for a bit just haven't gotten around to fixing it. Blah blah. Needs the steering box swapped out and I've been holding off to get lines and new pump with ram to move forward with hydro assit. Well just may need to plug the tap holes for the moment and just get the box in as mine has about an inch of slop in it. amount other things to be address I atleast swapped out the trans fluid for some good ol atf. Run it for a bit then pony up for that red line stuff everyone ravs about I guess. Still messing with linkage and still haven't gotten it right. So over this darn tease. I reckon I'm going to get on with the 231c and add a she to it and get that prepped up to install. Which will make me have new driveshafts made up, yet again which is what I was trying to avoid but less vibes going 62 be cooler. Punch list of items to handle before the white stuff Flys so hurry up already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
