Build thread: Out of Misery, again...

Did you put the manifolds on outside of the engine bay or inside? Sounds like a manifold leak...hard to hear on the phone though.
 
I need to check the intake manifold for leaks, the high idle should be easy to figure out. It runs, thats what is important right now.

found my leak, I should have caught it before I put it on.

soooooo, lm looking for a 00/01 intake.
 
Working rear wiper= awesomeness

funny story, Dylan connected the battery and we heard a strange noise, the front windshield wipers were on. We had a chuckle cuz it made us look at each other with a wtf look on our faces.

after those were off, and we actually got to the point of making a start attempt, we reconnected the battery and heard a weird noise from the rear, the rear wiper was on, and it worked!! bonus.
 
Nothing pic worthy, but I got a lot of little things done today. Rear shocks, drive shafts, exhaust back past the crossmember, blah, blah, blah.

Next week I need to bleed the brakes, weld up a muffler, swap intake, extend my o2 sensor wires and nut the jeep before its first trip out of the garage in the past 4 months.

Mid stiffies and rock rails should be the frosting along with a front end alignment.

The light is getting bright.

Nice! My turd will be back in MI Labor Day weekend.

We must wheel before or after it goes under the knife
 
Going to do a shake down run at r&v Sept 14. There is a fund raising event that weekend for Ronald McDonald House that the company is sponsoring.

I'm in. Got to rig up some lower coil retainers so I don't loose a spring after the stretch.

I'll probably drive it there
