looking forward to seeing this, very clean start. why the carpet delete if it's going to be a mostly city driver? if nothing else they'd be losing the heat reduction qualities of the carpet
The carpet is aftermarket and done horribly. But the tub is perfect. This will be a no top or doors ever rig and getting caught in the rain. Just preference really.
Here are some pictures the way she sits.
Guy said cat is empty.
Rear u joint is one size smaller so he tacked it in and cranked the straps down. We got home last night on God’s good grace. Not to bad for 2700$ I’m a bit jealous.

Did some quick maintenance items last nigh oil, coolant etc.. Then threw in new drive shaft u joints all the way around. PO couldn’t find the right size so he tackled them all in. As soon as I had the shaft in my hand all the caps fell out like they’ve been soaking in butter the last 30 years.
Crazy thing I didn’t notice though.
Some rocket scientist decided to weld 1/4” plate in a loop 5/6” high off the axle as bump stops. I have no idea if they were bought like that or custom but they have got to go. I think the track bars and not being driven hard are the only things that have saved the frame thus far from having 4 gigantic holes in it. Pics to come. This weekend will be adding power steering and some other goodies
I don’t mind them. They look good on this.
Yesterday they took it off road for the first time on some easy trails through some fields, swamp and up and down the dike.
They come back and first thing they say is “we need a winch” couldn’t help but laugh.
Think I’ve convinced them traction aids before vanity items.
Who knows they might catch the bug and want tons.
