Eastern long island

 

Little bit of this little of that. Let me know if you like it! No it's not the straightest cut. I'm sorry lol still better than what it used to look like. I had so much rust I decided not to do the cut and fold. S I just cut. Ill be filling it with expanding foam.

 

Put some bedliner on it

 

Next week. Herculiner!

 

Lucky you. Pine barrens is fun

 

Came out of Wally world and saw a 2 door parked right next to me. Mine used to be red aswell.

 

That reminds me, i saw a Willis Jeep today. Too bad i was on the motorcycle otherwise i woulda taken a few pics.

 

lmao

 

left side ball joints

 

Don't use expanding foam bad idea unless you want it to rust out

 

I paid $650 for 5 of them with less than 500 miles on em. One had never seen the ground. Gonna have to trim the fenders a tad more though.

 

Went to Oreilley's and spent $360 on head gasket, valve cover gasket, intake/exhaust manifold gasket, head bolts, water pump, throttle body gasket, pcv elbow, oil filter, oil, oil filter adapter oring, left and right motor mounts, ignition coil, spark plugs and wires.

Got home and cleaned the gasket surfaces on the head, block, intake and exhaust manifolds.

Replaced the motor mounts, water pump and coil. Reinstalled the head, intake and exhaust manifolds, the a/c compressor, the power steering resevoir and fan.

My torque wrench doesn't go down to 19ft lbs, so I couldn't torque the rocker arms.

I'll go rent a torque wrench tomorrow. I still need to torque the rocker arms, install the valve cover, injector rail, wiring and vacuum lines. Need to replace the oil filter adapter oring, change the oil and filter, add coolant and crank her up.

I'm wore out. Went to work at 4 this morning, got off at 2:30. Started on the Jeep at 3:30 and stopped at 8:45. Been a long but productive day. She'll be running by noon.

 

Yeah as long as you don't get caught :x haha

 

I'm talking about pine barrens in nj. It's legal down there and only a little over an hour drive. As long as you stay outta the sand pit area

 

Yeah I wanna head over there. Long island sucks for Wheeling unless you wanna go on the beach and turn your ride into a rust bucket.
