Yeah, I saw the story on the news, and the link last week while I was lurking about when I found this forum.


Unfortunately for me, the wife convinced me that chores were more important than mudding if I want to sleep in my bed tonight. That couch is nice to look at, but I like my bed. Maybe if I'm good, I can go next Sunday.

 

So where are pics of this rig?

 

 

Sorry about the last pic being sideways.
I'll figure it out later.


And yup, those are landscaping borders being used as fender flares.
Very redneck ingineered I know.
That's how I got it, and they're pretty sturdy, so for the time being, they're gonna stay there.

 

Nice rig! She has potiental...I bet if you clean up the rattle can paint job it'll look really clean...

 

Sick. I have a huge soft spot for those wheels. Early 90s directionals FTW!

 

Thanks for the compliments.


Plans are to clean up the paint, a lot.
Remove and strengthen the front bumper, then use it as an air tank.
Remove and rhinoline the roof basket.
Relocate the Hi-lift to the hood.
Mount the spare onto a tailgate carrier.
Rhinoline the floor, and the underside.
New leaf packs and shackles
Fix the high idle issue. I think it's a vac leak since most of the lines are everywhere but where they belong.
Ford 8.8 swap frt/rear and lockers and 4.10's eventually.
I'll keep it at 3 in. but want to upgrade to 33's when funds permit.

 

Afternoon ladies....lol

 

To save some money off the vacuum lines but buy the whole harness kit for the renix era jeeps...check into cruisers renix tips it has the part numbers to napa and it's great for the price....or it may be your tps going out causing the high idle but go with the harness then go on from there....

 

What's up?
How is the weekend looking? Krome?

 

One plus im working. Also still looking for new employment as for Krome next weekends looking better than this one for me at least. Gotta get a little bank going first...Didnt yall go last weekend ?

 

Nope...I didn't go I've been meaning to swing by to check out the area...but the comanche has been going through surgery as I did the c101 elimination as per cruisers tips....

 

Results? Oh, and how's the XJ running? I'd be down for Krome this weekend. I wish my 784 injectors would arrive in the mail though.

Found this today. Looks like a solid starting point despite the high asking price (if you ask me).

So far the results are good...idles a bit better(haven't driven it yet) I also got a used optima battery for it for $70 at a local battery shop....
"Workhorse" has been great till it left me stranded at a gas station because the cps finally went out but it was an hour fix and I was back on the road....other than that it's been gas and go!!!! Lol

That xj is a great starting point....I still would've bargained him from that price...

 

Am down to go riding again but not chrome we need a Corbett trip I like krome but just to hang out there the wheeling is not so good and I mean no disrespect to anybody it's just that hard bottom sucks we need a good Corbett trip I got tons off trials for u guys
