Lets do it! What about the 27th-28th? I wrk that sunday. those tires are gonna be schweet!

 

Hey man, lets hit up the oregon trails soon! I got a few toyota's that wanna ride. My brother wants to go back too. Besides, i got my New brake lines on so they need testing. Lol.

 

I've been really busy with school and work lately so haven't been on here much or done much to the jeep.

However i have added leather power seats recently. Also i rebedlined the floor while i had everything out.



And i baught a set of Q78's brand new. They are a 35.5" x 11 r15 TSL bias ply tire and i love them. They have a crazy 27/32 tread depth.

 

Also finally got to go wheelin. Went with Brent (bheath) and Cooper (Barrelmaker). Had a good time, Brent got me a few pics of my jeep.

 

Well, haven't done much in a while due to school and work. But I recently installed some metal tail light housings after getting tired of cracking them all the time. That's about it other than general maintainence. I did just get home from a weekend Uwharrie trip also. It was a good trip with my dad and his new Polaris RZR. I broke a longside shaft and busted the pinion bearing in the d30. Also laid it over on the side but couldn't get a pic because it was at night. Minimal damage but it might be time for an axle upgrade and roll cage

 

Nice. Glad all was well( for the most part) lol.

 

Appreciate it buddy. I think the worst part was a 4runner guy that drove past my campsite as i was fixing the jeep. He said "only if i had a time for every time i see someone working on a broke heep". I thought it was pretty funny myself but still made me sad lol.


Btw found a couple pics on my camera just now, thought they were pretty cool. Especially the mall crawling one






Also Brent, I know you told me I needed to last time we wheeled oregon, but i chopped the sides of my front bumper off and hacked up my fenders some more. No more rubbing issues there. Shoot here's a pic of it right here lol.

 

bout time you trimmed that bumper. nice flex on the first pic btw.

 

nice flex i think its funny sometime the yota guys talk so much crap but every time i go wheelin it seems that they end up brakeing cause they dont know the limits of there rig

 

Happy Thanksgiving all. Without having to work or go to a class today, I decided to start on my half door build. I picked up a set of front doors for $50 a little while ago and finally got to gut and chop them in half today.

I got started on plating the inside and filling the gaps but had to go eat some turkey with the family. I'll add pics of that when I finish with it. Not sure if I'm satisfied with the overall look though, I think I may take more off the front at a foward angle and chop the top of the door frame off. Opinions are welcomed.

 

i like 'em. good job man.

 

To add to my project list, I just placed my order for this weld in interior cage kit http://www.dandcextreme.com/product_...e.asp?pkID=126. Also buying a couple sticks of DOM and some square tubing to reinforce it and tie it into the frame.

My plan is to chop the rear and move the hatch forward. I picked up an MJ tailgate from the junkyard last weekend that I'll try to make work for the bed.

So, winter plans:

-finish up my half doors
-chop the top
-burn the roll cage in
-order a set of harnesses (suggestions are welcomed as I haven't researched them yet)
-on board air set up

Sorry my build has been very slow lately but it should pick up as the school semester and my job slows down this winter and my parts pile keeps getting bigger.

 

Well there's no turning back now, broke out the sawzall today. Should be getting my tubing in for the cage within the next couple weeks. Also going to pick up some sheet metal to plate the insides of the bed area when I get the time.




Oh yeah...she's officially a Heep now. Yes that is a Honda H lol.

 

Nothing exciting yet. With the hatch laying around I decided to cut it in half and make a tail gate. It's latched at the top on each side and still uses the factory latch so it stays up there and can be removed completely. It helped tremendously with the fumes from the exhaust coming into the cab also.

 

Looks good man. The GF is bugging me to do the same to mine. Lol keep it up.
