Beep Beep, I'm A Jeep!

Well just about everything I touched broke. Spent all afternoon working on the rear. Broke off all 4 upper shock bolts. Not sure if this is normal, but my rear leaf bolt has the nut on the outside of the shackle, so the bolt has to pull out towards the gas tank. Turns out my hitch is in the way of that. The front bolt is siezed to the inner metal bushing thing, and just spins against the rubber. Also broke a break line removing a U-bolt. Tomorrow I'm going to the point of no return, and cutting crap out with the angle grinder. Oh lord tell me the front will go smooth....

I'm not Lord, but it will. The simple part in the back is the hardest to do. I had to cut the upper shackle bolt into 3 pieces and grind off the head to get it out. The front (that we thought was the going to be the toughest) went fairly well. Seems to be the norm.

the boys down south and out west will never appreciate what we have to go through to make our midwest rust buckets big
