cool man hope ya can find somtime to work on it take plenty of pics cus im wantin to start on mine

Mr.goodtime

im excited, that k5 in the back ground of my pics is gonna be sold to my neighbor that built that yj, he is gonna run one ton axels and a set of 44's powered by a built 350, now i will have someone to play follow the leader with at bunnell

Mr.goodtime

update on the jeep, nothing, it makes me want to cry cause i have done nothing but think about the jeep even at work and school i have been on this forum or craigslist. i did stop by the shop to put air in a tire with a small leek.

any how i was thinking about my snorkle set up. i was thinking of runing the snorkle in the cab but i think it would get just as dirty inside, and then i would have a big ugly hole were the old one was, plus i like the getto lookin pvc pipe snorkle

Mr.goodtime

o and thought i would share this pic cause i find it funny other then this is the day the 4.0 died due to a wet computer, but with me running thrue the mud and my two large friends this makes a nice pic, cant wait to get the jeep out there again

GrimmJeeper

at least you brought your flotation homies

Mr.goodtime

lol

Mr.goodtime

No ideas about the snorkle???

john deer green

Use some like 3 inch exghoust off a diesle weld it and clean it up real nice it would look good thats what im thinkin bout doin

Mr.goodtime

ooo that actualy sounds like a good idea and would look better then my pvc pipe thing, but sounds like more work that i dont have time for but maybe i can try that after i get everything else were i want it

john deer green

yea its a little more work but atleast it wont bust on a tree or somthing u can get the prebent 90s and stuff so all u have to do is cut and weld instead of bending and just make a nice air box out of sheet metal and put the filter in it and ud be good to go

Mr.goodtime

its been way to long since the last time i have worked on my jeep, i have about 3hrs of time each week to be at the shop and i have been working on my sisters wrecked ranger so i havnt been able to work on the jeep, well she pissed me off last night so she can do it herself, time for jeep. this weekend im going to a swap meet and then on monday i don't have work or school so im gonna go cut that thing off the fron of my jeep and start building my front suspension

john deer green

Nice to see ur still alive cant wait to see what u do with the front end

Mr.goodtime

i got a ton of work done on the jeep over the week. on sat. i went to a swap meet and got a battery cut off switch, a set of hood pins, two ****** ropes, and a set of lug nuts that actually fit right. on monday i tore apart the entire front end and made a plan. i decided that the 2x2 framing is going to stay on the jeep just in a diffrent way. i relized that it is 1/4 inch thick steel, i hit with a sledge hammer the hardest i could and it didnt even dent. but i am going to change the way it is mounted. im gonna move the frame from the bottom of the jeep and put it in the unibody and resupport the entire frame with more tubing. any ways tonnight i pulled apart the springs and covered them in grease and put them back together

Sounds like Seabreeze to me.

wow this is impressive. Good luck. I'm in a totally different boat but I have a 91 xj as well. check it out. i'd like a lot of input on how to fix up the look of mine.

And yeah. I totally agree about buying a beat up jeep (actually mine was given to me by my brother who went out and bought a brand new F150) but its more gratifying than just spending a bunch of money on something you'll beat up to get it, fix it up, then break it and fix it. Its a way of life.
