Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Kyle why dont you unbolt that small piece of exhaust left, that way you can use new bolts. Then it'll be easier to weld and put back on. It'll also be easier if you need to replace it later, just a thought.
Oh and I think I could beat Travis unless his looks worse then this.

Idk Jim...close call. haha... I've got the missing corner light, front fender's just as bad, front door the same ish, my rear door has been hit harder it looks like, main thing where you win is your roof looks worse off. My passenger side a-pillar got it pretty good, though. Both my quarters were caved in way worse than your's looks in that pic...ALSO, do realize that all the dents on mine were put there while it was my DD...that's gotta count for something :gee: call it a draw maybe? hahah

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
Lets each snap pics of the "frame rails" on our rigs, that can be the tie breaker. Ask colin how the one on my driver's side looks.... trails to challenge rigs on 36s + when I had 31s, open/open and a winch, with my friend Scott saying "Screw it, you didn't just hang a thousand bucks off the front of your jeep to not use it!! Get in that thing and wheel it!" haha... poor thing got dragged through the trail jussst a couple spots.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
yeah... I mean, when it's a big open area I tried to be more "cautious", if you could call it that. Like I say, because it was my DD and only vehicle. Coming home with a caved in roof/smashed windshield/no side glass, would NOT have gone over well with the parents. Now that it isn't the DD I'm not worried about it really, but since I'm planning to do the cage, I'll be pretty pissed if I manage to roll it before then lol

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread
So0o0o0..
I guess I ought to do a compression check before I go looking for a new engine. The poor cylinder compression could be due to bad valves. I hope that's what it is. It did always have a tick to it. So a wet then dry compression check should tell whether it's the top or bottom end that needs work. I'm hoping best case scenario it's a dead lifter or something? Then I can just buy a cam & lifter set. I don't know too much about engines though.
