What Did You Do To Your Jeep Today?

WOW!, That's a heck of a nice job! turned out great!

 

I put the 3b to work pushing slash piles into the fire.

 

Going to add a support bearing?

 

What i think i know....(lol)...is that two or fewer u-joints don't require a support? When you go to 3 or have double joint, you are required to have one, so i think i’m good?

 

Got a pic showing the steering box? Do you have a spud shaft ?

 

The solid shaft comes straight from the box. Supported internally. It’s a 50-60’s domestic saginaw box. Something like this:

A jeep in its natural habitat

 

I think your good.

 

Once again the Holley leaks. Plus I'm running lean the jets need to come up a size or two. I'm done...dropped the iron stock 2bbl intake at the shop to run through the tank. Fished the 2GC out. Either going to rebuild it or get a 2100. Too much gray hair I just want reliable and simple. A 4bbl is useless on a 5:38, T18 equipped Jeep anyway.

 

Fuel injection!

 

Overwhelmed!!
The Jeep was doing pretty well for the past year.
So I took out the brakes, clutch, seats, steering, wire harness, drive shafts, transmission, transfer case, roll bar. I’m crazy.






that clutch is coming off today.

 

I know that feeling. Past failures make me fear getting things too far apart all at once.

 

I hear you. Don't have 1k plus at the moment for it.

 

Yes, that is a problem.

 

Getting ready for a Thanksgiving Day drive in the '71. Emmett's wondering what the holdup is:

 

Might not have been the best idea of something to do by myself.

Next time I'll set some posts for a cab lift. I messed up the rear hatch.

I do mine in pieces. i need my ife to help me for about 2 minutes to lift the cap onto the Jeep and then piece it all together myself. Also takes a lot less space to store when it's off.

 

Mine is more or less rusted together. I would hate for it to develop a squeak.
It's also about 120 1/4-20 bolts that are eaten down to nubs. Currently it's about 40 bolts that need put on. The doors are soo heavy.

I also have the visor filler off still to measure and draw.

 

Haven't done anything to the jeep today, but I found a guy in Minneapolis with a bunch of scout parts... on a completely unrelated note, I may have a d25 and locker for sale soon.
