Have fun kyle!

My jeep sat on its own 4 feet last night!

Had to pull the rear back out to finish weld the spring perches and shock mounts. Gotta go get a v8 zj front d-shaft for my rear cuz the 9 inches pinion is shorter than my 8.25. V8 zj front d-shaft is two inches longer than an auto xjs. Should work out perfect.

Just some small crap to wrap up and she's done for now.

Also finishing up my bros atlas tomorrow so he can cruz to wheeler with me. Just have to make some new shifters and install his front d-shaft.

Voted.

 

Finally conquered my fears of Apex trail in Golden. Rode it solo. Technical as hell, and I didn't hurt myself today. Full of awesomeness!!!!!!!!!!

 

Kyle, i forgot to tell you.........with a combo of yours and franks ideas, i finally got my pitman arm off. i cut two slits on the collar, then used my air hammer to try and break it the rest of the way. i could see it cracking a bit at the slits so i grabbed a piece of 1 1/2x1/4 wall tube and my mini sledge. 1 whack from the top and it was off!!

thanks frank and kyle!!!!!

 

good mornin fcers!!!

washed my jeep last night and found a ton of new pinstriping from the weekend run......even got some on the hood. at least now it doesnt look like a pavement princess anymore!

 

Nothing princess about it!

 

Just the cute girl in the passanger seat...or so she thinks.

 

drove the jeep to work yesterday. i started to hear a clunk in the front end while hitting the brakes and going over small bumps. it also tried to give me death wobble a coupl times. thought it was just a loose joint or something.

when i got home, i jacked up 1 tire at a time to shake things down. well, i found the noise on the first thing i shook.....damn ball joints on my drivers side are toast!!

so guess what im doing today!!!!???

 

D'oh!

 

Buttering your toast?

 

 

Good one Frank!
