I know that would be ideal, especially since I have all the brake crap off right now, but I'm not going to let the truck sit for another week while I pull the shafts, drop them off, get the bearings replaced, pick them up, put them back in, etc. It'll be "next" on the list. Right now, I just...

So, back to your reguylarly scheduled build thread. If I get that crap wrapped up tomorrw night/saturday morning, I'll be hittin' the road and pitching a tent somewhere further north this weekend. About damn time, havent been camping since new years. This will just be a quick trip sans camper...

Just dont do stupid crap like me. Got in way over my head on that. Apparently judging by what the shop told me, I was alot closer than I thought. Anyway, it was there for a day and now I have brakes. See below. Okay. So it runs drives and stops now. Dropped it at Vegas 4x4, they switched my...

So far this is awesome. Let me know how you like that drivetrain, it's always been one that I have considered if I ever got around to doing a swap rather than rebuilding a 360. Sad to see you ditching the original gauge cluster! those are so cool. I did the same with bed liner, I only had...

Well. Calling in the pro's. I'm having it towed to Vegas4x4. I'm throwing in the towel.

Thart is the 1 and only adapter fitting i have on there, simply because that line was too short to cut and i'd have to rebend a whole line over to the passenger side. Not a HUGE deal, but a deal none the less. The only lines that are not new are the driver and passenger front HARD lines...

Well guys, thanks for the inspiration and comments. It's a Disc/Drum prop valve, its not installed upside down. I promise. A few weeks ago my girlfriend asked "can you PLEASE work on the jeep this weekend?" It seems she wants it done worse than me. I had lost motivation. The jeep had sat for...

thanks for the help guys. Still fighting it. No leaks. double checked and checked again. I'm on my 3rd MC, and my 2nd booster. There is no adjustment in the booster (I know, odd right?). I'm just chasing down every possible cause.

So yeah, there have been no updates for 2 months. You know why? Because I've been fighting with this bastard jeep for 2 months non stop. So, remember those minor brake complications i was having? Every single p[art of the brake system except for the lines going from the prop valve to the...

Nice! That cheif looks like its in pretty darn good shape! Lovin' the rhino grille.

Looks good, but your dogdishes are way too small. They'll actually cover the ring that you placed them inside on that photoshop. I love the retro look!

ha, the gas station is an important part of the story. We were literally 1 minute into the movie and I already had to get gas. Gotta love 10mpg. That video was highly edited and only included EXACTLY what I wanted to put in. This was more of a road trip than a wheelin' trip or anything,and i...

I saw that I had a response and got all excited. Then i realized it was just you.

Well, Last September y'all may remember I posted a lot of pics from our trip up to Ely, NV for Labor Day. I took a ton of video with a little action camera I bought specifically for the purpose of recording jeepin' adventures. Well, I never sat down and made the video. I finally did. 8 months...

There are a few of us here (seems like more are joining) that use our wag's for camping and wheeling. I'm one of them. While I love mine, and love working on it (read: hate working on it too), it IS and OLD VEHICLE and has its limitations.A modern drive train swap would get these things super...

Dusty! How you been? Glad to see you over here.

the complications never end. The gas tank situation is fine and its repaired and back up, but im running into issues with brake lines and prop valves and master cylinders. should hopefully have it all righted in the next weekend or two.

Oh gotcha.

He knows what he's doig as he has done it before. I don't really know him he's just a friend of a friend who is a mechanic. It's in his hands now, I'm sure he will follow the proper precautions to ensure that he does not go boom. And yeah I've read about tank swaps and stuff but really don't...

Well, internets, what do we do? Do I adhere to the "oh noes! your tank is teh old! It must have teh rusts and holeses!" Or do we go with EVIDENCE?! Okay, this took 18 minutes (yes, i timed myself) Once it was on the ground i did a lil inspection. OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE HUMANITY! THERE...
