    Jackson's 16th birthday is just around the corner... We've been testing and tweaking just driving it around. Ran some good mud out at the farm and it performed very well. Still to do. 1) Squirmy on the road with that tiny wheel base and a Detroit in the rear. I had John put in an ARB for me so...

    Almost done. Still need a little tweaking on the steering and alignment. Can'you get it to shift into 2wd, but other than that, it'seems pretty much done.

    It wasn't a bad first outing. Got the thermostat housing ordered. I already have a little list for James on the switches and stuff. I may dump that t fitting for the temp guages, now that we have ENOUGH coolant ports... LOL

    Jackson's birthday today, so we had to get a shake down run. Discovered a few things today. 1) The injector plate was loose creating a huge vacuum leak. 2) The timing was WAY off. The thermostat housing is getting in the way of the distributor. Timing can't get any better than 26 degrees...

    So it RUNS. This was quite the saga. The injector system was pumping out HUGE volumes of fuel while trying to fire it up. All the wiring checked out, fuel pressure checked out. Had to borrow an OB1 reader from John Mathews. Of course, John pegged it as soon as I told him the symptoms... the...

    Getting so close. It's now licensed and insured. A couple of pics as updates. The fuse box is wired, still needs fuses added and all the final testing. James primed the engine and got it started - for a few seconds, then shut it down to get back at the wiring, The wiring is finally 95% done...

    It's getting SO close that I can smell it! James has the Crash syndrome... The work he is doing is FANTASTIC, it's just taking SOOOOOO long. I'm sure he feels the same way. It's close enough that it's now licensed and insuranced, just waiting to drive it back and do a little finish work on...

    A few picture updates. The air compressors are installed in the old tool storage areas. These were completely rusted away so James to build new ones. The batteries installed and connected right in front of the air tank and right behind the bench seat. This is where the airlines come through to...

    The t-case shifter was cut down so that it would fit between the transmission cover and the seat without interfering with anything. The pedals were cut and re-cut until they finally sit in a position where you can actually drive. The air solenoids are installed and mounted. When finished...

    James is making some pain staking progress. This part is moving slow, but I love the quality work that he's putting into the detail. He and Crash have a few things in common... LOL The LED backup lights are installed. The floor panels are getting finished. When they are all done, he's going to...

    They are going to need some sort of sock cover on them, like you'd use on a K&N Filter. They probably need to be angle down a little bit too, so that they drain out if water does get in. This is where James wanted to mount them :)
