2 weeks ago the wife and I loaded up the wag and pop-up and headed to Antelope Lake, a few hours north west of us, in CA. We have never taken the jeep up here because the main road is ridiculously steep and twisty. Even in my Dakota pulling the pop-up was a 20mph adventure for the last 10 miles...

prolly get just as much at the scrap yard these days, so, we shall see.

lol thanks. Went out and grabbed a solid set of rollers (maybe 25% tread?) in 30x9.5". They are mounted on 5 lug wrangler alloys. Paid $20 for all 5 including the wheels. I intend to get these swapped over to the wagoneer alloys. This will give me a half way decent set of tires that should hold...

Man, whatever you did to this carb is nothing short of amazing. Hop in, set the choke, and touch the key, the dang thing fires up instantly and humms so sweet. Did an oil change and got good results too This weekend is brakes. I did check and it DOES move itself around, stopping is just a...

And then what? I have the pictures but I can't host them somewhere else then go through thousands of posts on a dozen websites and redo the links lol

My other one isnt going anywhere. I dont currently pay photobucket any money. gonna suck if they pull my stuff, i've been using them for 11 years and have 6500 images hosted with them, all my build threads will be gone and trashed if the pics disappear.

Thanks again Scott. It's in good hands though the name may switch from Flip to Boomerang :-D

As fate would have it The 74 that I acquired last year and traded away to a member here has come back to me. Not sure what my plans are but I feel obligated to make sure something good happens to it one way or another. I'm thinking I'll get it driving and see where it goes from there. If I...

Nice! If you want to get another one I'm sure we could work a deal for mine :-)

So that rough idle and poor fuel economy and stuff. I started thinking 'kinda feels like a vac leak' and sure enough found a cap that fell off. Heading out on a 300 mile weekend and it's running smooth :-)

Y'all know me

Glad to see some more FSJ love ;-)

Also, i need to weed my yard.

Well, i ended up getting the engine partially freed....then I promptly snapped off the crank bolt. Then i tried to drill it out, it was going well, but then i snapped a drill bit. The original engine is now dead as a door nail. It'll be stripped for parts after I cut the timing chain off. womp...

Somewhere in CA....always gotta stop at a fruit stand

so, I'm pleased to report my jeep "beat the trip" that nearly made me throw in the towel last year. 500 miles round trip to and from Mendocino County Fairgrounds in Boonville, CA. Last year the thing started to fight me as soon as I was climbing to Donner Pass on the 80 just outside of Reno. I...
