Starting it off

Well kind of....Shortly after I bought it I got the itch to make it bigger and better. Since then it has been nothing but busted nuckles, long nights, and one unrelated trip to the urgent care. So for now I will update with some pictures and some comments on what has been done and what still needs to be done. My goal is to have it running and operational by my birthday. Which is in 38 Days.....



















New valve cover and realization that my motor is sitting about 3 inches too far forward.

















































Got the motor put into the correct place and the tranny and x-case mounted. Recently I was cruising on Craigslist and this guys was selling a bunch of CJ parts. I got a set of Terraflex REVOLVER Shackles for CHEAP. Very nice find. Tonight I installed the drivers side shackle. Notice the high tech, safety oriented jack I used.

Still to do...or I guess I should say what I think I need to do.

• Install new wiring harness I ordered last night.
• Install Radiator
• Fix Drive shafts
• Hook up vacuum lines
• Get seat belt for rear seat
• Hook up throttle cable (incidentally called accelerator cable)
• Order and Install exhaust
• Install other shackle
• Bleed brakes and clutch line
• Fix anything else that needs fixing.
