That's good sorry judging by what I seen on the rig it looked as if it were road salt! I know in New York they use it and I hate it which is why I have no desire to ever go back to visit.

finally got the Jeep out for some good wheeling. Didn’t make it too far in cause my buddy bent a tie rod. Bent it back with the jeeps winch and headed back. Other than realizing I need bigger tires ASAP I’m pleasently pleased with the Jeep.

Well I already knew 40s would fit up front, but they for sure wouldn’t fit in the back. Took care of that today by opening up the wells more to stuff em a bit better

oh I know lol! I’ve build a few 231s out of jeeps. There was a very noticeable difference in slack between the new chain and old chain even before putting on the case half. Just waiting on a new output seal to show up since my local store didn’t have anything close to what would work with my case

Nicely done on that T case rebuild! I did mine out on the bench not sure if that was easier but didn't really matter I had bigger problems I failed to track down and that is the reason I didn't come back on here for a while. Stay in the fight your Jeep is coming along nicely.

Just a few pics from a spur of the moment solo trip. They don’t call it the land of the midnight sun for nothing!
