Project Tiger Blood
Figured it was time I start to document what all is going on with my jeep. Bought it about 3 months ago, and have found many things that I'm not sure how I didn't see when I bought it :hammer:
heres the specs: 1995 Cherokee Sport 5 spd 4.0 - 143k miles d30 & c8.25 with 3.07's 33" dunlop mud rovers 6" tomken lift 8k smittybuilt winch four real steel bumper surco roof rack blah blah blah the list goes on. I bought it with the intentions of wheeling it pretty hard and beating it up, which I was successful at. It has many battle wounds and plenty of scratches. things I've broke, fixed or changed so far: broke both DS & PS mirrors (tight trails lol) broke front output yoke & driveshaft rear yoke strap bolts snapped took winch bumper & winch off tinted tail lights removed front and rear swaybars bedlined the floor ripped hitch bolts through unibody replaced pinion seals list of future modifications (not in order): custom front bumper with hitch and D-rings custom rear tube bumper complete comp cut custom long arm rear 4 link caged front end raised gas tank plate mirror holes hood louvers replace floor pans weld rear hitch on rock sliders truss front and rear axles regear to 4.88's and I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff, but thats all I can remember right now.. really hasn't changed much since I got it, but it will slowly evolve. I'm 17, and don't have a job, so it will all happen in time. when I got it http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...11086042_n.jpg after I decided to lay it on its side in a dried up creek bed http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphot...93978435_n.jpg moved some lights around and got it how I wanted it http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...IMG_3239-1.jpg ripped the hitch off http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...112-1320-1.jpg snapped the front output yoke, and the driveshaft http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...119-1555-1.jpg caught a tree with my cb antenna mount and crinkled the QP pretty good http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...110-1449-1.jpg built a box to store all my junk, it'll be coming out shortly, I dont like it http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...113-1523-1.jpg took my front bumper and winch off, both will be for sale soon http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...128-1659-1.jpg |

figured it was probably time to pull the front carpet to check for rust.. sure enough its rusted through in two spots. one is clearly visible, the other is underneath the seat mounting bridge. going to hopefully pick up some sheet metal tomorrow and weld in some new spots on the floor.
also after wheeling this weekend, my clutch started to feel funny. sure enough, my master cylinder is leaking like crazy all over my fuse panel and floor. so I'm going to have to fix that too. heres a picture of the floor, BEFORE I scraped off any of the bubbling paint.. http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...11129-1509.jpg |

some updates on everything I've been working on.. mirror plate before paint drivers side: http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...203-1626-1.jpg mirror plate after paint passenger side: http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...204-1711-1.jpg rust repair: http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...202-1528-1.jpg http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...202-1528-1.jpg I'll have finished pictures of the floor tomorrow. forgot to take some after my dad got done welding. and hopefully we wont have to worry about any leaks, we used an asphalt emulsion roof coating to seal the floor :whistling2: and, I don't care to hear about how I shouldn't drive without mirrors, I know its not the best idea.. but I'm sick of replacing them. I've been lucky they have springs several times, but lately its like they've broken extremely easy, where as before they wouldn't break lol. heres a picture of the bumper I'm working on via sketchup. its not finished though, still needs a stinger and some other little things. hoping to have it started by monday december 12th :thumbup: http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...rdesign1-1.jpg |
