I gotta settle for working on mine in the driveway.. but then again it would be stupid for me to do any serious mods cuz the closest place that I can take it off road is 60 miles away and gas is really expensive here... Sometimes I hate california.

yea its fun.. im also in auto technology which is everything mechanical... but all of that stuff i will do in my driveway. its alot funner to me bein on the ground on a sheet of cardboard. it just makes if feel more personal. jackstands are your friends but use a lift if you have one

Thats cool. Right now I'm thinking about getting a '91 2 door for hella cheap and fixing it up, but my only problem is it needs some serious work and I need to find a place to do it, and some technical advise cuz besides the pretty simple stuff I don't really know what I'm doing. I'll probably end up giving it to my sister when she gets her license cuz I don't really need 2 jeeps.. jw, is yours a 95 or a 96, and how many miles does it have on it?

but good news is i might be getting a set of dana 44's exiting.. and im pretty sure they allready are locked out. which makes me happy.. well next week is when the updates will come.. this weekend im going to try to make my shifter and get some pics for you guys... talk to you later...
