Here it (The Jank) is in a not so good position, I took a bad bounce on a ledge. I really don't have big skills or a big garage, just one bay under my house. Small welder, grinder and a drill press. I just take my time cause nothings hard one inch at a time.

Dude! This is fantastic! Every project you've done has come out great!

Let me know if you find a clean MJ that you won't use for yourself? Hahaha. I'm trying to get my hands on one, but everythings rusted here in MI.

Mj's are hard to find, here's a few I've built. I quit looking for 4wd MJ's and started buying 4cyl 2wd trucks and a rusted 96 xj and then converted them all over using everything out of the xj. Not that hard and the 2wd MJ's are usually in better shape.

That's exactly why it's one of my favorites. You turn junk into badass creations!
