Nothing new to mention about the mj right now. Have been hitting the books hard and will be graduating in about a week. In the mean time I have been looking to trade in my 2008 ford fusion as soon as I get a job for a H3T. What do yall think. I am not considering anything less than the V8 option. They are hard to find and have been looking for the past year.

I think it is a good looking vehicle for a dd. Plus if I can get it with front and rear diff locks( which is fairly rare) it will be icing on the cake. Planis to throw some nice tires on it and rock it. looks like I can get one with about 50k for 28k. It will come with the 5.3 a trusted vortec....

Very nice mj. Would love to drive one again. But id say stay away from hummers. In my opinion it comes with an outside assumption that youre a rich @$$. And the chevy silverado is basicaly the same. Just different body and much cheaper. Id personally get a silverado long before a hummer. Unless it was an h1.

zebvance, That is some nice looking work.

I'm really impressed with how neat you shop is.
It would take me a week to get my shop that clean, and then it would only last for a couple of days.

Little bit of a update. since I graduated, got an engineering job & attempting to do my best to grow my bussiness I havent had much time for the Mj.... I have done a few things here and there and drive it from time to time.. But, I need to try to get this thread up to date on where Im at with it. I still have not put on the long arm lift, new front axle, or tires. Me and some buddies were planning on hopping back on this thing this weekend to try to fab up the crossmember in the attempt to hopefully have it lifted and 4x4 back in it for the summer months ahead. Unfortunately weather is not going to cooperate. SO now the plan is to work on it 3rd weekend in Feb. The cross member fab is the major stepping stone. after that everything else is ready to bolt up.

I also just recently blew out the rear main seal. Since at this point my time is more valuable than money is I plan on taking it to a shop and have them button up every leak on this thing. That will be the first thing that happens after the lift is on.

Then Its a alignment, fluid changes, and then Ill have measurements to order the front drive shaft.

Man im ready to get this thing back off the pavement where it is suppose to be...
