Yeah, im dissapointed too, i just dont have the time and money with school, and plus i just need a truck, and thanks!

 

But it's only just begun! Good luck to you sir. I have no doubt that you will be back. The jeep virus is alteady implanted in you.

 

You were right, I'm back! Just couldn't let go man! The build is back on! Updated coming tomorrow!

 

He's back!!!

 

Haha yep! Back in the game!

Alright, got an update. First, i got the tailpipe in muffler of and straightpiped an 18" pipe right off the catalytic converter. Also, new front drivers side broke hose, now i just gotta replace the brake line from the master cylinder. Need to put on the lifted shackles for the leafs, haven't got around to doin it, maybe tomrrow. Also gotta do the cut and fold on the rear fenders. Got a new battery and terminals, old battery had a bad cell in it. My buddy Lance knows a dude at the flea market who does headliners for $100, so im gonna save and get that done, and then hopefully get this thing painted soon.

Checked back with my uncle, his buddy Kenny has a 2001 XJ that is just sitting right now that i can get parts from! It has 31's on it, so those are gonna be mine, then i might get the doors from his so i dont have to pay more to get the dents pulled from ine when i get it painted. Only thing is, the doors wouldn't take my key, any way to switch the locks? Help is appreciated!

Also, got some pictures! Finally got a pic of the deer emblem, and i had a picture of the flashlight mount, but i cant find it oh well!

 

Deer emblem, and found the flashlight mount!

 

Alright, so i went to autozone and got a radio, and got a wiring harness adapter from walmart, but i can't figure out the wiring. i got everything wired up and it just won't turn on, but the reset button light is blinking behind the face...help would be appreciated!

 

Update time! Been slow, but got new(to me) shoes! 31x10.50-R15 BFGoodrich Radial Mud-Terrain with a full size Uniroyal Laredo M/T spare (100% tread, but no rim). Also got some new stickers and a Cherry Bomb Glasspack on the way! Still haven't finished the lift, waiting for my buddy to bring over his portable welder to weld a nut on the broken frame mount bolt to get it out. Also, changed the air filter and oil, and the insignificant tapping in the motor went to a full out bang, and it sounds like the engine is about to explode time to change the main bearings!

 

And the stickers

 

Looking good!

 

Thanks man! I appreciate it!

 

Got a visit from the brown santa! Got my glasspack, windshield sticker (finally), and two small stickers! Got the glasspack hooked up to the cat, and man does this thing sound badass! the glasspack is long too, got a picture of it compared to my sister's arm

 

Santa didn't bring me any presents Let me know how that glasspack sounds...

 

Haha i know how ya feel man, he can be a jerk sometimes haha but that thing sounds great! its loud, but not to obnoxiously loud, its like the perfect, deep, throaty BRAP BRAP BRAP! and to make it even better, i paid $18 for it

 

Alright, i need some help figuring out this motor knock. It's a really loud banging in the engine, and when i accelerate, it speeds up and then goes away at high RPM's. The PO said he had done some research and thought it was the crankshaft bearings, but i checked those today and they're all good...? I have little to know knowledge about engines, so ANY advice is highly appreciated!
