I'm back in the SEC again

[shelbyluvv]

I'm back again. Some here may remember me. I used to wheel a WJ with . I got stationed in Albany GA again and bought back my MJ last night. She needs some love but I can get her right. I'm looking forward to hitting some trails.

Hey I remember you. I think I may have sold you something at some point. I remember you showed up in the WJ with chrome wheels & white letter tires? I remember you saying back then you'd be moving soon.

 

[PacificEd]

Welcome back.

 

[shelbyluvv]

You are correct Mike. I bought my interior off you for my MJ. It was a complete dark agate 99 interior. It went into this truck.

And looked like this when it was done.

Ed thanks for the welcome.

 

[PacificEd]

Truck looks good. It's got a 5.9 right? It was a 4.0L when I last saw it.

 

[shelbyluvv]

My 86 has a 5.2 this one is my 89/97 with a 4.0

I have two MJs now. I drug my 86 back from California last year.

 

[Georgia Mike]

That turned out great! Welcome back!

 

[PacificEd]

Wow, I'm totally out of the loop. Do you have a build thread anywhere on the 5.2L swap?

Either way you have a sharp MJ.

This is the 89/97 MJ

there are a lot of dead pictures but most are still there. I made the mistake of selling both trucks at one point. I got them back in not so good condition.

Sweet! Welcome back! Maybe this time we can actually get some wheeling time in!

I don't think my little truck on 245's will hang with the Ghost!

Shame we could never link up when I was in north Georgia Glenn.

Once I get the bugs worked out of this little guy I will be ready to play.

Hey I have a 98 Limited with the Up Country package on 235/70/16's that We took to URE recently. I also have an 88 MJ that I'm about to start working on that will be on 33's. I guess having twin boys has it's advantages when you are obsessed with Jeeps! LOL!

Welcome back! Sweet looking truck man, I wish I had the balls for that interior swap, let alone the v8! lol I go by the same username on ComancheClub. :cheers:

 

[94xjsport94]

That's a damn good looking truck interior.

That's a damn good looking truck interior.

Was. It is rough right now. It had 4" of standing water inside it. I had to toss the carpet and the whole interior is covered in mildew. It sat for a year and has three water leaks to the inside.

 

[RenegadeStang]

Welcome back, Bo!

Glad you got your truck back, but sorry it's in such sad shape. I know you'll get it back going again though.

 

[High2by]

Good to see you back Bo!! I have no doubt the truck will be back up and running as good as ever.

Hopefully when we meet again, it'll be on the trail.

 

[shelbyluvv]

Thanks fellas. I'm looking forward to getting her back onto her feet and on the trails. I devolped a nasty valve rattle when it's hot. The oil pressure drops like a stone once it's warmed up. I am hoping it is a bad oil pump. I am looking for a cheap used one to verify the Melling HV pump is bad first. I hope that is all that's wrong and not the bearings going out. If the motor is shot I'll part it out.
