Did you go to U Wrench It? I was considering going there one day this weekend, but ran out of time. Look me up if you ever need any wrenching help.

BTW, I think I got my Taurus Fan (actually from a Mark VII) for like $15 from U Wrench It. I love going on their half priced weekends.

Nevermind, I found it. It is the same place. It is called u pull it. But I call it the pick n pull.

Yea, they had like 5 3.8's there, all with fans. I didn't have enough money, or I would have bought them for $20 and sold them for $80.

The fold in mirrors are awesome, got a tree with my passenger side and it just collapsed and didnt scrape anything up. Great build Im following it.

Yeah, now that I think about it, 'U Wrench It' is a different place.

They always have a ton of 3.8 Taurii & Mark VII's. I see quite afew ZJ's, and alot of older XJ. I've only seen one 97+ XJ there.

Also, I'm parting a 98 XJ Sport, lemme know if you need anything from it.

Alright. I went wheeling. Fate have it, I ran into a tree destroying my header panel. So remember this?




It is now this.




Overall, I really like it. I have it so that all 4 lights light up at once, so I don't have brights. All the bulbs are the same, because I knew the original had a different bulb up top for the brights. I am going to get some fog lights in the next couple weeks to help with the ''brights''. I can make it so the fogs come on using the brights multifunction switch. I think that it makes the heep look so much better. All the paint is, is some flat black paint after some sand paper.

Next up is to save for a new bumper. I don't think that I can save this one. It is beat to hell.

Fun Fun Fun....where'd you go wheeling?

Nice jeep... I'm about to buy a '92 and these Ohio winters cause a helluva lot of rust with all the chemicals they put down. If you don't mind me asking (it's a sore subject for me at least lol), how bad is yours? The rocker rust on the '92 I looked at isn't bad, nor is the frame rusted, but the passenger side floor pan needs help and there is a hole in the floor under the rear seat. That's the hole that concerns me because it's right above the muffler so I'm afraid the heat will cause melting, or worse, a fire. Also the fenders have rusted through. But it's going to be a beater so looks aren't too important for me. I'm afraid to pull the carpet and find more though

P.S. - Go Bearcats!
*sorry, had to

I either go to the old quarry or, for the majority of the time, to a friends place up by Delaware. I am usually down for more people to go and we try to go every weekend. Send me a PM.

Lol, it isn't a sore subject. This is my 3rd Jeep in Ohio winters. I have the typical rocker rust. I also have had some on the floor pans, put those were patched. When I pulled the carpet, the rear cargo area had some holes in the pan. However, I have NO frame rust nor body rust other than rockers, which is all I really care about. If it is a beater and is structurally sound, then I wouldn't worry about cosmetics. But to each its own. Lol.

O-H-I-O!

Cool build so far, like it!! Look forward to see'n more done to it

O and PA winters arent so nice to jeep sheet metal either!! But nothing compared to the carnage I just saw when we were up in Vermont for Thanksgiving!! :O Thoses poor jeeps up there turn to dust after a couple years. My friend lives right around Lake Champlain, so its cold and damp most of the time, YIKES!! Talkabout some rusted jeeps.

Hey dude, just wanted to say thanks again. I switched to photobucket and now I am adding like a champ. Your rig is looking sweet. I love that new header panel, very jealous. Keep up the good work. I would love to see some shots of the taurus fan going in!

UPDATE!!! The people need an update!
