47 Willys Story

[leeadam94]

When I was 14 I got this jeep from my grandfather. Drove it for two years everyday to work and school. I wanted bigger and better then one thing let to another. Here is how it all happened http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160610/96f79ee59c5f0e4709f5db4dea9cab54.jpg[/IMG

This is the first build I did on this jeep: all factory running gear with lockers and 35s
Then I needed more power so time for a turbo(hints my nickname TURBO LEE)

Also did a new offset Dana 44 rear end at this time
Then clutch when tour and time for a motor swap. Build ford 302 with built c4 and factory Dana 18 transfercase

Finally the front Dana 25 give up so I build a custom with Dana 44

I rode the jeep for a about a year then it was time for better suspension so I 4 linked the rear and put 16 inch air shocks on it

Did great for about 6 more months and the front diff housing broke in half and the I decided to do another rebuild with new suspension and new front end (worlds most expensive Dana 44!!!) .... Stupid on my part lol high pinion swapped and retube day Ryan at heman machine,Reid knuckles! RCV! Spool! Yukon hubs!

after semi finishing this rebuild I then wanted to go fast and ride smooth so now sir suspension tuning

I'm leaving out all kinds of stuff so if any questions feel free to ask
The latest project was after blowing the rear end up and replacing it 3 different times I finally think I have the fix. Specs: Dana 44 off set with Yukon locker(junk)!!,custom full float kit I made with RCV axles. Yukon semi float is junk and didn't hold! After two sets of yukons RCV for the save

This is an on going process and I have hundreds of pic. So please ask if any questions or hating on my junk is fine too lol thanks

I just saw you guys for a split second last time out. I hate that I didn't get to see it in person for the whole day. My boy has a flat fender 48 and this is similar to what I want to do to it.

I am also happy to know where the nickname came from without having to ask now. I was eventually going to ask Brad, so as not to look like an idiot for not knowing. All this time I thought you were are really fast running white boy.

Re:

Once my buggy is up and running we need to get a trailer at Harlan and have a good old fashion 3 day ride.

Yes sir. I need some driving lessons from the Coors light guy, the tooth fairy and Turbo Lee. Lions Den, Little Jagger and Mason Jar all have my name on it. If not this fall in the red buggy, then the sami will make a trip.
