I'll Try to make it, cause I wanna get a GOOD test run in before moab! but we'll have a lot going on what with moving into our new place (w/GARAGE!), & I gotta studdy for my ASE test on the 6th of next month!?!?!? sooo idk

 

Which ASE's are you taking? I need to retake mine in the fall.

 

Brakes so we'll see how it goes...

 

Ah, that ones not too bad, you'll do alright!

 

i might be down for that if i can get my jeep sold and my new one registered in time. i have never been down to run the trail but i would like to go bad.

 

Man ta hell with all this snow! I wish it would just be summer already!!! Wonder how its lookin down in moab? Other than the streets being flooded with jeeps!

 

Getting there...getting there ...
Battery has been left plugged for 4 days now with just the "dome lights" fuse pulled out.... and it doesn't look like it is draining as it started fine last night... So since the dash lights work now, the blinker is fixed, the rear speakers have been removed, the rear wiper/wiper motor removed.... I am starting putting the dash back on (This is where I realize I should have been more organized as I can;t remember what screw goes where lol).
I changed the radiator cap and it seems like it solved my issue with coolant puking everywhere....

I have been to the junk yard to look at how it works and found a couple of things.... mirrors, plugs for the wiper, ccv tube, air cleaner box cover (mine was broken).

Still a bit of learning/working to do. I am going slowly and after extensive search/questions but I think I am close to finally got have it registered and on the road.

Next step, suspension.... I will probbaly bug you for some info/tricks/tips to fix the suspension after I have looked more into it.

I also see a playing with the engine mounts at some point, the rubber is dry and falling apart....

So far I love it, it definitely is a great feeling to be working on your own vehicle (especially when you are not a mechanic )

 

I work the 18th so the 17th would work better for me for a run to the snakes.

 

ya buddy im getting my new jeep this week end. i cannot wait. i sold me jeep today the guy is coming to get it after work. now i can drive it down to the snakes or little moab and it will make it. now lets wheel.

 

If you guys run Snakes on the 17th I might be able to make it.

 

So maybe the 17th? Lets see a show of hands.

 

Ya I'm not gonna make it to this 1! have a blast guys & take a ton of pics for me to drool over!!!

 

i might be down i just need to get the new jeep all plated up and i can drive it.
i will let you know.
