I've been trying to plan whats next on the cj and I think some rocker protection is in order before I smash it all up. I have a little rust repair to do first but then I started thinking about boat sides or mini boat sides like Gen right ones. (But Ill build them myself) I like the look and the...

Thanks man! Yeah I'm lucky to have a wife who loves to wheel and take lots of photos. I miss my ol 5 as well, but this Cj is coming together. I still have lots to do but it was great to get out on the trail.

Our first trip with the Jeep went really well. We drove to the trail wheeled all day long and drove home with no problems. It was a sucsessful trip. I'am very pleased. Now to get it all cleaned up and get more **** done on this thing. Here are some pics from the trip. The sammy is my Dad's and...

Got the winch mount built and installed. I couldn't be happier. Gotta love the old school look of the 8274

Started my winch plate for my 8274. Can't wait to get it mounted. Jeep looks naked without a winch. After I get the Jeep on the road and work out any of the bugs or mechanical issues I run into. I'm gonna start breaking this project into stages. For instance. Stage 1: Interior and safty...

Woo Hoo! I got the brakes done and I couldn't be happier!:smokin: I have really awesome stopping power and it feels great! So I still have to get license plates and all that other leagal bull ish, but I took it for a drive a couple times up and down the road this week. So far it drives great. I...

Thanks man. I never thought I'd be a guy to run flares. I've always just had my tires sticking way the Fawk out. But I'm growing up.....a little, and kinda sick of getting the hairy eye ball from Jonny Law.:fawkdancesmiley: but I aint goin full coverage...Fawk that. HAHA

So this weekend was a little busy and I only got about half of what I wanted to check off my list done. Most all little things. The biggest I guess was installing the TJ front fender flares. This was no bolt on job. Anyway, I think I'm pretty happy with the end result. I still need some markers...

Yep those are good ideas too.... Im just bending pipe....NOT TUBE. I haven't bent to a full 90 yet. I think I would make a set for $75 + shipping. Made from 4140 steel.

Well for us poor bastards who bend pipe with their $80 harbor freight bender know that anything bent past about 30* gets dents from the outer dies not being true to form. So I'm trying something. Made two new outer dies that fit the contour of the pipe. I bent a test piece to about...

So I cycled the suspension for the very first time, and its not bad. Gonna need some bump stops out back, I plan to move the front axle forward about 1"-1.5" for a little more wheel base and keep the tires out of the fenders. And I'm gonna need a longer slip on my front drive shaft, I knew I...

Got any pics?

A few shots I found on our old lap top. Yep she rolled it :fawkdancesmiley:

Time for Brakes! Hydroboost or vac? Well guys its time for brakes and I've been doing some searching around and it seems most people are using early 80's corvette MC/Booster, or a hydrobooster from a Astro van and many other combos as well. I guess I'm turning to you guys for some input. I'm...

Oh those ones:redneck: Yeah I had the gears back out and blew out the tubes with shop air, brake clean, and a telescoping magnet to get anything else. They are nice and clean:awesomework:
