Ill warn you, the Herc gets EVERYWHERE. I'm talking it traveled at least 5 feet and got on my frame when I was doing the inside of my body. I'm still finding new specks of it in my shop.Fatman said:The Herc will overlap the paint by about an inch all the way around.
Overspray? I'm going to be a little bit more careful than that. It will be taped off and sealed before the first can of Herc even gets opened. :thumbsup:
He could of made a new one rolling off the line in 1985 look like a hoopty.TetanusCJ7 said:The flip flops are a standard issue item when working on Jeeps down here in Florida! At least he doesn't have a cigarette hanging out of his mouth like one of my neighbors....does Tyvex burn?????
But seriously, good work Fatman...your project looks fantastic. And you have thoroughly convinced me that my Jeep is a hoopty.
Eddie, do you have my cage with you?:tea:BESRK said:<---------- Sitting outside Fatman's window waiting patiently for the painted tub to show up. Seriously.. look out the window Dave...![]()
Your going with a non-OD tranny on a semi-dd? Or is this just going to be his toy? I understand the strength diff, but unless your going big tire I dont think you'll need the grunt of the 18.Gotta break the T-4 first. Then I'll find a T-18.
Thanks man, your jeep makes me feel good. Any plans to hit Tellico or Uwharrie in the summer? Buddy and I are thinking about taking a little trip before I start college.Thank you sir, I was thinking that was the case.
The brackets come with the mirrors.
The ones I got were from 4WD:

$90.00 for the pair.
Eric drilled and taped the existing hinges and then we took a cut off and flushed the threads on the inside of the hinge. I used SS Allen machine bolts with nylock nuts to mount the hinges.
Amen to that, looking forward to getting this done. First trip Hilton Head, SC
You need to knok that crap off. your rig is sweet, Eddie did you a nice cage!
My painter, ... Let's just say I'd find someone else. Not the most pleased as I thought I was. :thumbdown:

Ahh, our poor northern friends.I'll gladly wire your entire jeep from scratch for a decent usable cj5 body (actually doesn't need to be decent just usable) :laugh:
