So i played with the steering last night. Got it centered and steering decent. Went and drove it around for a good half hour or so. Ran it up to 40 mph with no issues. Seems to have a little rough idle I didn't remember from before, the gas in it has been sitting for 10 months, so it could be some bad gas.
There's nothing close to my house to really flex it out on, went and played in a little field behind Wal-Mart. One issue I did find was the rear right wheel seal is leaking bad, 80/90 running out. So i've gotta fix that. But this thing is going out wheeling Friday night one way or another. I've been in the market for a trailer but havent picked one up yet. So I rented one locally for Friday.

Playing in a field.. I know.. gay.

Both sides done. Check that off the list.

Nice nice.

so what else is left on your list????

Just to get it wheeling Friday...

Rear wheel seal.
Finish rear shock mounting.
Fenders.

:yes: so excited! :yes:

always loved that color

This thing almost looks like a Jeep again.

Grabbed some tail lights yesterday at the yard, along with a hatch striker- not sure where mine went, it was lost in the build.

Tail lights in last night, bumper on, rear wheel seal fixed, I hope. (thanks RTV :) ) And fenders painted.
