I went and said Hi to my poor baby she is still not running right and is still parked at the shop. Of course it doesn't help that my son put rocks and dirt in the fuel tank. Can't wait to get her going again so I can work on her lift.

You got that right just when I thought I would get to buy my lift now I have to spend money on fixing the fuel tank. Oh well he is my little man and I couldn't really be mad at him.

Picked up a complete 96 XJ 4.0 engine to use as the basis for my 4.7 stroker today. I probably won't be able to start tearing into it until spring break though.

Between working on this Jeep stroker, and upgrading/rebuilding my WR450F Supermoto, it doesn't look like I'll actually be getting much of a "break".

Thinking about turning my '94 XJ body into an offroad capable trailer. (front and most of the drivers side are rotted beyond reasonable repair) Got 26' of 2" square tube for the frame and dovetail.
I'll start my build thread in a couple of weeks. Got to get some ideas and some cash, but it's gonna match paint with the war wagon, and I'm gonna pintle hitch this puppy for some good camping.
