I'm really enjoying your build. Great job! I also really enjoy your back and forth with 96_xj.

thats close to english. the shifter isnt done yet, but its really the icing on the cake for me. It ties the exterior in the interior aling with helping to break up the black+tan. plus it ties both of my favorite hobbies together.



thanks!

more heavy work should start tomorrow.

I meant to say, how'd you get that pool ball shifter one there? I haven't found a way to bypass the button on the autos

We got the jeep pulled inside tonight. got the AC pulled, the rad, condenser, PS all removed and the whole wiring harness disconnected, along with the motor mounts. the whole engine is disconnected from the firewall forward. Had to end early cause I got class, and tests this week but we got 2 u-joints, and the tcase/tranny linkage and its ready to come out. I snapped some pics, but cant upload em til morning.

Also got dads zj back together and it SHOULD be good to go.

would of got more done if it wasnt for some a nice amount of HS style drama going on....other peoples kids, jeez

got the u-joints removed and the tranny mount removed, along with the tranny wiring harness. All that is left is the T-case shifter linkage and it SHOULD be ready to come out.

quick pic of the accessories removed, def easier with the rad pulled

it has already had the wiring harness removed along with a bunch of other junk, but I have been so busy its hard to remember pics

trying to decide if I should just throw it together to be ready for memorial day run, or if it should continue without messing up the quality of the build. I WANT TO DRIVE

Put the wheels off of yours on the zj and go. Or help me switch the rad over from my blue one and we'll go.

well we are supposed to leave at 10 am

so how bout you come down at like 930 and we'll put my rad in your white one. then whenever you have time you can either give me the one from the blue one, or just buy mine. I have 2 already removed, and I can pull one pretty quick.

the tires arent stopping the zj, its dads vahina. it will go anywhere out there even on his baldish tires. hes worried about breaking it...he might not be D-GAF club material.

well I have ran into even more problems with the guys at the garage where the motor is. So now I have to pack up and remove all my stuff and put this on hold even longer. Im so tired of other people making this take longer.

I finally went and picked up my stuff. I just removed all my stuff from the garage completely. I got tired of dealing with all the BULL. I have been a little under the weather, and busy with school so I havent got much done recently other then getting it all home.
