My buddy w/the junkyard just bought one of those yesterday for a winter beater car, except he got the cool one. 1981 SX/4:

Needs a front driveshaft, which may or may not mean the viscous coupler in the t-case is toast (it's one of the earlier 1981 models that's 4wd only). I'm gonna work on it this weekend and see what's up.

They actually have a front Dana 30 and a rear Dana 35.

How difficult is it to turn the crankshaft over by hand? Just use a breaker bar on the balancer bolt?

Good question, I don't remember for sure 100% but I believe thats what we did. I remember it being a pain in the ass because it was dark out and what AllData was telling us wasn't really making much sense, but we got it figured out. Scott is a gorilla so I'm sure turning over via the balancer bolt wasn't a problem for him hah

We're not building it.

And I built my entire jeep in a tent. Where did you build yours Bill?

Oh thats a right a garage that I would consider heated.

:D
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I'm taking a couple days off next week and probably gonna finish my 200 dollar 12x12 jeep tent and put down a ghetto plywood floor.

I now know that I can build the frame for my next house alone if I decide to, it really wasn't that bad.

You've never worked in my tent.

Sure it keeps rain or snow from actually making contact with you, but there's always water on the ground in puddles if it's raining/snowing. No matter how well you dam the outside (my father and I tried multiple times).

And I doubt Bill had the door open if he could help it. I know I wouldn't.

Aside from a few small projects here and there, I haven't worked on my jeep inside anything in over a year. :laugh:

Ya its better than working outside definitely.

But sometimes it doesn't help with motivation.

I like having a lazy day every now and then.
