Nothing major here, I just wanna get back on the trails.
However, my 15+ year old cooling system needs a freshening up.
Still need get a new radiator and water pump.
The trans pan *still* leaks.
Maybe fix/replace the bent UCA bracket.
Jordan,
If you notice, your spare is still in safe keeping and the Pud Countries are holding up nicely.

No we're having it shipped. Cost of it running and driveing, nearly rust free with shipping is only just over 4k. We looked at absolute garbage cj2as in NY and they wanted 3k. So it was totally worth it to buy one far away

She looks mint! Cant beat it for that price.
I'm starting my kitchen "update" soon... new cabinet faces, painting the boxes, new backsplash, new floors, recessed lighting, new wiring for an induction stove.
Chevy's getting some love this weekend... new torsion bar crossmember bushings, rebuilding the transfer case encoder motor, fresh fluids in almost everything. Going on a road trip in a couple weeks to savannah, Charleston, and Asheville with the wife.

I was in Asheville for 4 days in November, make sure you go to Burial Beer Co and the Wicked Weed Funkatorium.

I'll be in Charleston Feb 8-10 visiting an old bandmate along with my current bass player, many jams will ensue. Let me know if you're in the area then

Yes, two places I definitely will be checking out.

I put Brown Dog motor mounts in the XJ yesterday. That's kind of a time consuming and annoying job ... and the stock mounts didn't even look all that bad. Oh well, at least now it's done.

Well the jerk backed out of the sale. So time to keep looking.
Welded on the passenger side hinge support.
Will be able to finally hang up the doors, that is, after the striker hardware arrive in the mail.
Gotta buy a metal circular saw to cut up the bunch of plate steel to skin the new bed.
Gotta finish the minor stuff on the motor too.

No doubt! They are definitely bomb proof, but after bolting them to the block getting it all scooched back in alignment is a royal pain.!

Finally got the upper control arm bolts out of my 91. They were galled badly and I was forced to use a cut-off wheel.

also replaced the broken fan shroud on my DD, that was the biggest pain

I have far too many projects to ever get any of them done.
cmelo's old J10 Honcho - I'm LS swapping it. But work and fixing the house take priority. The engine is in, I gotta put the trans in, wire it, and it's basically ready to rock... then it's back to building the IHC front 70 with dodge kingpin 60 knuckles and chevy+ford+dodge chromo 60 shafts for it.
my crummy 91 MJ - needs a water pump, needs everything else too but all it's getting is the water pump.
my less crummy 88 MJ - accumulating parts for the eventual 4wd swap. I think I have everything except rear driveshaft and new leaf springs at this point. But the J10's in the way of the lift. Oh and it needs a new headlight warning buzzer so I stop killing the battery.
house - needs way way way too much stuff done but right now I'm working on installing the heating system and finishing the central AC so I can insulate the remaining walls and sheetrock everything.
