In the process of replacing the rear main seal, oil pan gasket, oil, oil filter, cap and rotor, transmission filter, transmission fluid, Transmission pan gasket, Diff oil front and rear, front and rear diff gaskets, front drive shaft U-joint and redoing all the grounds in the engine compartment. Been at it for an hour and 15min and got the oil drained, oil pan off and rear main cap off... doesn't look like I'll be hitting the trails tonight.LOL My wallet hurts I've sent $220 at autozone and still need a few things...

sounds good. Theirs a few people that live up north and we all need to get together one day.

UPDATE:
Finally got the oil leak fixed... The oil pan gasket split in the rear some how. Now the only issues the Jeeps got is the damn missing and stalling on the trails. Every time I hit a bump or get on it hard it misses and sometimes back fires and stalls. I'm going to redo all the grounds on it this week and see if that fixes it. But I'm kind of stumped on what could be causing it.

Here are some pics of last weekends Beasley's **** ride.




Here is a video. The GoPro Wide Hero cam makes the hill look not as steep as they were. Those hills are almost vertical.

New update

I got a 8000lb winch, ordered 3"lift front upper control arms and cut the bumper off my Jeep. I was going to buy the metal to fab a winch mount but ran into a cash flow problem so in 2 weeks I'll start the bumper build.

I also took it out yesterday and played around with it for a few hours.
