Weekend is over...what did you get done?

A cobra handheld just needs a clip for the microphone and you can hide the box.

But that's not as cool

You'll never make me believe I'm not cool!

Same here if I buy it all. I need to upgrade my power wiring too. I only have two light bars, line lock, and rear bumper lights I'm wiring up, not a whole lot but it needs to be cleaner.
 
Well I finally got the heep back on the road after replacing all the TREs on my Currie(and keeping the old ones for trail spares), bending the tie rod straight again, rebuilding my RE DS track bar flex joint, replacing the axles seals on the D30, and greasing the crap out of everything. Handles and drives alot safer now.
 
Got a ride out to Advance Auto Parts, picked up a few quarts on transmission fluid, put it in the LJ, threw my tools on the work bench, and went back to bed.

Think I might just trade all my old Jeeps in on a new one. >_>
 
Picked up a raggy renix 2 door today. Resurrection thread to follow. Plan to put together a reliable, capable, and somewhat comfy DD so I can wheel my tj and still drive a jeep to work.
This is the only pic I have so far, and yes, most of the parts it needs I either had already, or they came with it. Best I can tell it has a 96-99 drivetrain with the original renix electronics. It does run, has a 4.0, an ax15 and an np231 without the tailshaft cone. Axles are dana 30/35 with open diffs and CAD in front. Hopefully it won't stay that way long. It has about 2.5" of lift and stock wheels from an '01. Planning on some 31" retreads.

 
Haha I hope this one doesn't get as beat up as my last half dozen xj's, certainly don't want to get to the point where Glen's did... like I said, stocker with junkyard upgrades and small tires.
 
Messed around with my Jeep some more this weekend, trying to track down a mysterious noise:

With help from Josh, we narrowed it down to the case. More diagnosis to come this weekend when I get a chance to open it up. Initial thoughts are the chain is stretched.

Maybe...just maybe i'll have this thing streetable again soon.

Sounds like the stretched chain in the transfer case I took out of my MJ. It would only rattle when letting off the throttle.

That's exactly what mine is doing. And really only once I'm in OD. Really does it bad while feathering the throttle in and out of OD at cursing speed. Removed the front shaft and it got better, but not gone, which is what also pointed me towards the case.

At first it mocked bad drive shaft ujoints...

I was starting to hear this before the axle swap, but the axle was so bad it masked the noise almost completely lol
