I have a full bottle up here if you want to swing by and grab it. I'm using my fluxcore for everything I will be doing on the jeep before nacfest, just get it back to me full whenever.

One of my favorite things was buying a second bottle of gas, worth every penny. I never have to worry about coming up short of gas on a weekned again. And when I buy a TIG welder, I can use the bottle I already have.

got almost everything off the motor in the 98, just have the starter, trans cooler lines, and bellhousing+motor mounts left then I can pull it and stuff the new one in.

not on hand but I can grab a few tomorrow when I grab a subie rear subframe/diff for a friend. Remind me at like 8-9am or I'll certainly forget.

I can bring the throttle bracket by at the same time. The MJ is close enough to passing inspection that it barely gets a disinterested look from the police now, it feels strange.

i'm waiting for paint to dry, then i'm putting the winch back together all clocked and setup to go in the crossmember. turns out its not a M8000, its a MX8000. the gears have fresh grease on em, and the solenoids all seem nice and clean. took some electronics cleaner to the solenoid box and put some new grease on it, just gotta figure out where the hell the solenoid box is gonna go. gotta win me that masterpull gift certificate!!

Thanks Rob! I'll let you know.
Most likely I'll be laying pipe in the trench for the underground service. If I'm not you can bet on it I'll be there.

We will. This project will take most of my wheeling time (and all the budget) this summer. But I AM GOING TO MAKE IT OUT at least a few times.
