How will I afford those new Jeep parts? Oh Yeah, I only have one house payment.

Sorry, but what a day it was for the Airhart's yesterday. I even went for sushi and got to eyeball the cutest little Asian Chick. Yup, the only way it could have been better is if I could have used that money to build a crawler.

 

[scottmcneal]

Congrats..Now you need to sell the low rider..SPEED KILLS







So i got the motor all put back together...Now i am starting on the rear shackels..Found more broken chit...She is harder on hers than i am on mine..:wow:
Back out to the garage, looking up some parts for hers..

 

[Paul Airhart]

I think I have someone interested. Two Brothers, who remember my 914 as kid's. I took one for a ride long ago. He has contacted me. We'll see.

Oh, and thats a 2 door, Scott. lol

Welp my daily bad news is that my coolant is leaking like a bitch from somewhere my guess is the water pump but I have no clue to be honest, starting to leak pretty bad too... I think Ill order that water pump tonight that I linked earlier and go from there... cause I have no fkn clue anymore...

It started when Paul and I replaced the belt is why it makes me think its the water pump...

Maybe the belt is leaking blinker fluid? :gee: Maybe try tracking the leak with paper towels or something?

[scottmcneal]

Now i get to go out an finish the wifes jeep today..This will give me a day to adjust and test drive... She wants it done by FRIDAY night..I think we are going out to pre run it

 

[Paul Airhart]

Work work work work work, that All you ever do. How come I can't go out and break my Jeep every week...Oh yeah...She's about 5'-1", brown hair, brown eyes...

 

[scottmcneal]

Life gets better every time i work on HER jeep..Pulled the driverside tire to find it is HALF worn out..ONLY on the inside..Found axle is bent like this on the drivers ( l \ ).. OH wait it gets better..If you call right now i'll give you the housing thats bent 2 ways, thats right, i side 2 ways..Now i need to get her put back together just so we cab go out this weekend..Then i park it till i get the parts jeep moved to the shop...

What a day:doh:.. Her jeep is kicking my a$$:gee:

 

[Paul Airhart]

Ahh, just throw money at it, that i'll fix it. Works for Tone. :laugh3:

 

[scottmcneal]

Nope, i have axles sitting here..I guess i need to chang them over..I think i'll buy gears for the 8.25 instead of installing the d35 i have that matches..If i can find a locker for a good price, i'll install that to...I used my 48" pipe wrench, Floorjack on the handle to get one of the UCA on..

Lol just call me out like that.... I just like having things in working order when I go to use them.

 

[grandrunner]

so i came to a conclusion im gunna swap out my iron rock arms with the tnt arms (arms only), not because i dont like them, i love them. but they arent adjustable and do not work with my new axle truss. i just emailed ironrock to see if the arm length is the same as an xj, if it is would anyone be interested in buying them, thought id trell the rats first. you would just need to buy their crossmember if this works out.

Scott do I hear long arm project on the wifes?
