Is the motor still junk? I'll start the bidding at a solid $33.

 

[jim koch]

don't give up now, I seen pics of those welds, I will up it $40

 

[hjpcummins]

No the motor runs great, besides the water leak( small gasket issue)

But it's not for sale tho,( but thanks for the generous offers)

Now it's time to get back in the shop and break out a 40 grit flap wheel

On a lot of those **** welds, I'd run a slitter disc down the center and then re weld them. It'll melt 99% of the ugly off.

I will post updated pics as I clean/fix the rig

Either way I'm going to adventure offroad park next weekend if anyone wants to see it first person

Honestly don't know yet...
Things I do know that need to be redone

Brake n clutch lines

Hydro assist lines

A little bit of electrical

Skins

A lot of grinding/cuting/welding

Yay for me...

Iv literally have done 95% of the work on this thing by myself and unfortunately will fix 95% of the chit myself

Iv happen to possibly make a few new friends out of this whole situation... Many have offered to help
I will take all the help I can get


I'm realy just thing of investing in more tools at this point...welder, plasma cutter ect...

WOW that guy really did some shitty work.

 

[machen4x4]

hjp I was not going to say anything about this but man that is
some kind of mess. I wish you the best of luck redoing this.

 

[xjcrawler]

Those welds look like someone was trying to use a 110 welder with .023 wire to do the job of a 220 with .035 wire?

 

[hjpcummins]

Thanks everyone.. It's nice to know there's guys out there willing to give a free hand on getting me on the trail faster then ever!!!

going to town!

Glad to see. Just to show that all people in TN aren't bad I'll offer up any tabs you may need. Send me a PM and let me know if/what you need and I'll cut them out for you. I'm outside of Knoxville, all you pay is shipping
