Here she is when i first got her. Found a 2" Rubicon Express lift on her already, but rides real bad. So, hopefully i will get something nice in the future.

Looks good! I will keep tabs on it for updates!

After driving her for a few months found a couple issues.
1) Speedometer wasn't working
2) u-joint was bad
3)bad gas mileage
4)P/S Pump cracked
5) idle pulley replacement

Redid the headliner
OOORAH!

I have had all this happened to me
1. I had to realign mine
2. Mine did when I got it
3. It's a jeep... Lol
4. I had to replacing the high pressure hose on mine
5. The bearing in mine grenaded and shot ball bearings all over the engine bay lol

Got some new wheels:lol:And has completely transformed her
4 Cragar Soft 8s 15X8 4.0 BS

Not too bad for a 250k jeep i guess LOL

Ya its really not... Didn't want that old stuff anyway lol

went to a mechanic today and figured why i was getting 7 mpg. The distributor was all messed and messed with my performance. Replaced and now getting about 10 mpg :) (keeping it at 1800 RPMs)
