Good to know. I'm excited for mine to show up. They will be going on my beadlocks for wheeling trips. I'm going to keep the Kevlars on for daily driving, work and stuff.

Well today I went up river Skagit Co. and bought a big metal, monstrous, shop gantry beem thing that is tall enuf to pull out my motor with the 1000# chain hoist that I got as well. Will at this guys farm I got a generator and a mig welder with a gas bottle and regulator. I'm that much closer to having the capability to get my old girl back up and going.

Spent half of Saturday and half of today tearing my whole front end apart.... Again.... Radiator #3! This b!tch better not leak or I might just light the jeep on fire.

On the plus side it was the perfect time to install my 120amp napa alternator (just wish I had all the cables so I could upgrade them while its open, oh well) and do a few other things. Wasted a bunch of time trimming the brackets to fit... Only to realize I have some trimming to do on the block too. Looks like I'm taking the day off tomorrow to finish it up.

Picked up an old jeep off the side of the road and scored a bunch of parts. Radiator,backseat,headliner,dash panels, and roof racks😃😃. I wish more people would leave their cars when the transmission stops working. "One mans trash is another mans treasure" 😂👍👍
