Build thread: Out of Misery, again...

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've got a wedding and an 'out of the darkness' walk on the 14th. Could I motion for a pre shake down run, or possibly a post shake down run? Kinda want to beat on my heep a little too. :D Maybe the 28th? Ash could come with then.
 
That front axle and steering looks so sweet! It's almost a shame that it will get dirtied up. Almost.

You looked like a little kid when it fired up the first time. :D
 
I drove it tonight! Not far, but it moves. Still a few bugs, and tranny fluid top off.

Thanks a ton to Dylan for his help the past couple weekends.

I will do a better update later
 
Getting real close.

He won't make it to WF. I'm going to follow him around moab and question his manhood everytime he turns the jeep on.

Back on track a little bit. Got a lot done this weekend, changed the intake and it runs much better strangely enough. Got my brakes all hooked up and bled, had to buy 2 new wheel cylinders. The brakes are very very nice on this right now.

Installed my exhaust, 2 1/2" pipe and a Thrush Welded muffler, still need to figure what I'm doing with a tail pipe, probably 12" turn down.

I was playing with computers too, I installed the 2000 computer in hopes to remove the rear bank o 2 sensors from the california emissions. In the process of doing that I inadvertently programmed the new computer with the security system that is in the jeep. I am having Mark, sidewaysstarion, program a 00 ecu for my jeep, with my vin and mileage so my jeep will think it belongs in the Midwest, minus the rust.

I believe I installed the cam sensor 180° off, which explains it not running just right. They will run okay with this being off, but not the way it's supposed to.

All the fluids have been topped off and there are no sign of any leaks. This makes me happy!

This coming weekend will consist of dealing with the underneath. I have my mid stiffies, rock rails, transfer case skid and belly pan skid to install
