We got a good laugh out of that. He told me to carry-on and go ride but about halfway to Hale I couldn’t do it so I turned around. hope you guys have a blast out there I’ll catch you next time.

I did it in the driveway once again. Ole raggedy dodge and a boat taking up the whole garage.

Well I got off work early and decided to move my tank into the back of the cab. The 8.8 diff cover was looking thin. Took about 4 beers/1 hour. Ain’t happy about it being back there but I had to do something. I was kind of stressing with this being my ride to work haha. Should buy me some time...

Going to be a bad mofo in the woods.

It is a struggle. I enjoy doing it myself and I definitely enjoy saving the money. Have to pick the battles wisely. I’ve got enough projects already to last me 3 lifetimes haha

Thanks. Out of 8 or so wranglers that were all much nicer this is somehow my favorite haha. Once my truck is going and I can really bash on it I will have a ton of fun I’m sure. feel free to ask away on the permit. Beach driving is a hoot. Where I go at least. Pretty secluded.

Yea I’ve thought of doing that. Cutting the skid and welding some clearance into it. I paid $500 for the Genright so I figured it was a decent deal compared to my time modifying one and still having to buy an aftermarket skid as mine is the thin factory unit. hopefully I can spend some real...

Well I finally bought a Genright tank. Found one for real cheap in Trussville with the aluminum skid option. Gen1 Comp tank like one for sale on this forum. Got home only to realize it does not work with stock shackle location. Big bummer. Posted it for sale and got my money back the next day...

Really nice work. Looking forward to a ride report.

Don’t think I ever mentioned this, but a while back we were cruising to swimming holes about 2 hours from home and I smelled fuel BAD. Pulled over quickly and shut it off. Fuel was spraying on the exhaust from a pinhole in the hose on top of the tank. Man did it scare me. Woman and the dogs were...

As for the jackstands on ramps that was poked at last time, I actually bought some big 6 ton stands, but my axle less Cummins is hoarding them haha no worries as I wasn’t really under the Jeep.

So the wagoneer springs did not ride as well as I had read. I decided to remove two leafs (5 remaining). It rides way better now. I imagine my Jeep is just much lighter than most. No rear seat, no spare tire rack, factory cage, etc. it lowered it about an inch which I’m not mad about. Definitely...

Thanks guys. I’ve been looking into AW4 swaps. I’ve always had manual jeeps and it’s always been the one thing I wished was auto. The TF999 would be much easier but I’m just about sure I would hate not having OD. I do 75-80mph on the highway it would be screaming with a 1:1 ratio. Rad Designs...

So I haven’t had much updates lately. My Cummins is taking up the garage unfortunately and I’ve been daily driving the YJ. we just got back from a nice beach trip for my bday and I put 1700 miles on the Jeep. Probably half of that was on sand haha. I buy a beach driving permit every year and...

Anyone got a YJ windshield frame? I’m having a really tough time finding one. Going to have to spend the big bucks on a new one if I can’t find a used one soon.

Man, you do some quality fab work and with a quickness. I like it.

Pics..

Overdue update. My truck laid down on me and I had to get the Jeep going in a hurry. I’ve been daily driving it and have done some light off-roading. I’m pretty impressed for what it is. I was a dumbass and let the hood fly up so now I need a windshield frame and glass. Had some real wild...

That’s the type of info I was looking for thanks. I better get an angle finder. These eyes can’t ball 2* I don’t think.

Slowly getting the rear set up and ready to weld. Any tips on pinion angle? I’ve got it pretty much dead straight with the drive shaft (double cardan) thinking I might need to put a couple degrees down for axle wrap on the throttle.
