Should fit nicely.

 

That's a long time to change the floor.

 

Not really. It didn't take that long. Just waited that long to do it.

Cardboard goes a long way.

 

Looks like the floor is coming together. I am lucky enough to be off work due to my surgery that is the only reason I have been able to work on mine so much lately. Unfortunately my time is running out and i have to go back to work soon!

 

You sir, are indeed a very blessed man, although being off work for the reason you are isn't fun. Lucky in a way, just wish it was your vacation and not surgery recovery!

I will be honest, most of my laziness is less lazy and more of me spreading myself rather thin. Between the several projects I juggle, household chores and maintenance, work, and life, the XJ doesn't always get the attention she deserves.

And I would really rather drive the monster instead of work on her. Which, in all reality, is why its taken so long to even start the drivers side.

Passenger side is 95% complete. But since the drivers seat had to come out, I had to dedicate time where she ISN'T drivable.

And really, who the eff wanted their XJ to be undrivable?!?

 

Well whenever you get a chance you should get some pictures of her wheeling capabilities!

 

Some mall crawling, some not...

 

Got my sliders today.

And a pic of my small work space and my two toys next to the XJ.

 

Pulled my flares all the way off this weekend. Wanted to see just how bad the rust has gotten.

Looks like plenty of trimming will be done, which is OK with me.

Oh, pic of my part time helper is in there. Thing is trained like a dog. Its crazy.

 

Hey bro, I have been on the forum for a good while but am just recently getting serious with my xj. I know your a Mod but I have NEVER seen anyone as generous and as promt to help reply to a post as you..ill keep up with your build. I know a good bit about suspension as well as engine and drive train. Good luck on the build..ive always loved the older xj's since I got my 88.

 

Thanks!

I'm glad to help whenever I can!

Shoot me a link to your build whenever you start!!!

 

I seen some tow hooks at ace hardware yesterday and have been wanting to throw one on my jeep..I havent been up under the front end much...how long should the tow hook be if its goign to come up close to the bumper?

 

Good question. I will take a pic of mine tonight.

Thing is, you should really have them tied into the frame somehow, or they'll bend whatever they are bolted to.

Last of the grinding was finished last night . Now I just need to remake the seat studs to bolt the seat back in place and I should have a drivable truck again.
