Wow, i just read it all .. AWESOME build ..

Looks like your gonna be needing another paint job soon ay ? to match the doors and what not..

Btw, would you ever sell it ? This is prob the best build on JF right now

[blackblazer92]

i would sell it for like 15,000 20,000 lol thats not gonna happen though. if i did get that much for it i would just end up doing it again anyway. except with 1 tons and a v8 lol

How much paint did you use? I'm trying to figure out how much im going to need for just the upper half. I figure 1 quart...

[blackblazer92]

just bought a Detroit locker and took apart my 98 hp 30. hoping to have it geared and both axles under it for a RC run i have planed the 19-21. its gonna be tight because i also i planning on converting to the open cooling system and e-fans.

stay tuned lots of work to come

I just read this whole thread front to back. I gotta say, I'm completely and totally jealous of your work and it's interesting to see how much better your welds have gotten over time

Sooo... When do ya wanna trade Jeeps?

[blackblazer92]

rausch creek was great. i didnt take many pics because we were all to busy wheeling and fixing things.

started off the day wheeling the comp course







jeep went right up it no problem







then like 20 min later i broke my rear driveshaft u joint and messed up the rear yoke. didnt let that ruin my day though. we found a parts store and got a new u joint, bolts, and straps. then i welded the part of the broken yoke

had it fixed by like 11:30
we went back out and helped some people in a yj who were stuck in a very bad spot then we met back up with the group.

we made it down to the quarry and i did some hill climbs.





and then on a different hill i tried to bump it over a rock and



rigged that up with the 2 good caps off of the old u joint and made it back to the camp where i welded it all together.

we figured we would stay on the comp course (right next to the parking lot) till we broke it again.

it lasted a little but this rock was just to big for it



went i get my new axles (front locker) in i am gonna make that rock my *****

Man .. I already said this but .. This is such a killer build !!! Great work man.

[evoGibson]

i think moar of this build is required.

[Paraleyes]

That was a lot of fun reading through your build. Do you ever get hassled with that license plate bent under the front bumper? I still haven't installed mine yet. I'm not sure what I want to do with it.

[Hardt114]

id just make it like his but leave it protruding...when it gets bent it gets bent. then when the cops hassle you just say you didnt notice and then build a bracket...i dont thin thats the kind of thing they'll go out of their way to ticket you for

SAS = Solid Axle Swap...its for those of us with factory IFS (Independent Front Suspension) i'm actually running at toyota 4runner right now with the stock independent front. i'll be cutting all that off and tossing a toyota landcruiser solid axle under the front end hopefully soon....have the axle and steering box...jsut need link material and time.
