JV To-Do list........

I'd like to get my frame stiffeners welded on, but not essential. Ordered a tire carrier rear bumper from RigidCo in Sep and impatiently waiting on that too.
 
Highly doubt I'll have time to sort the red Jeep even if I get free shocks...

I'll either be in the little Jeep or on the bike if I can line up some tires.
 
Buy yet another tent, put in Jeep.
Fill cooler, put in Jeep.
Empty dog, put in Jeep.
Drive to work, try to work for 8 hours with dog giving me "Pleeeease can we go already? I know we're going SOMEwhere cool!" eyes.
Hit the road, knowing I'll have a great weekend.
 
1. Weld on jcr rock sliders
2. Remove pos jiffy tite trans cooler line on radiator and replace with straight hose
3. Install new Robertshaw thermostat and Hesco hi flow housing
4. Lots of miles to break in new gears and try my new arbs
5. Wire aux fan switch
6. Alignment on 2004 Duramax tow vehicle to get me there it is pulling to the right
 
Here's my list
-Change oil
-Finish ordering up SYE, CV drive shaft, Front drop bracket and control arms. (if someone is getting rid of some please let me know)
-Pickup steering and trackbar from Darky.
-Replace ball joints on the front end.
-Investigate grinding noise in the front passenger side.
-Put new u-joints in the front axles. (the passenger is toast)
-Install Front and rear Deavers and shocks.
-Install SYE and CV driveshaft.
-Rotate Tires
-Get an alignment after the newly installed suspension settles.
-Buy large amount of beer and alcohol for the trip.

Optional if time permits

1. Front driveshaft (JE Reel is working on it right now)
2. Move axle forward one inch, adjustable arms top and bottom.
3. Move rear leaf mounts down and back one inch.
4. Rear bumper (pipe dream, no way i'll get it done that soon)
5. CB radio.
6. Beadlock inserts (another pipe dream)

Bring the jeep by some day and lets whip a rear MJ bumper out! I'm sure the brackets are not that difficult.

I'd love to, but I work non stop. :(

My only real option would be to hand it off to you on a weekend and pick it up the following weekend. And i'm sure you don't want my jeep taking up your shop space for a week.
 
should wrap up my shock mounts tomorrow, got the front done and one rear done today. front rides MUCH smoother now with the different spring rate, i expect the rear to do the same. i'll get 2" more travel per shock.
 
1. Fix wallowed out track bar mounting holes on axle side.
2. See what's up with my fuel pump that just started whinning.
3. Load camper on truck, jeep on trailer.
 
-Wait to see if I will be off work. If I am it's a Yes.
-Pack things the night before
-Leave.

I'd like to do some of the things you guys are mentioning though. If I do end up missing out on this I'll just save up money and build the jeep for moab next october.

I have one customer rig in here right now that's going to be gone this week and then if you want to drop it off one weekend and pick up the next that's not a problem, we have plenty of indoor secure space.
