Hey my windows go up too
Course I dented my driver door so bad I have to .. help the window.. to go up and down
Wired up some old fog lights to the low beams last night. Planning to finish the rest of the lighting over the weekend. Gotta rewire the brakes on the trailer, too, because they got pinched and they ripped in half inspecting them when I was getting my tires changed. I guess that's why my brakes haven't been working (well) for the last couple trips!
The key to the dust is to be up front, so eat my dust Well at least till you put your windows up and turn on the AC
Finished fabbing up the new track bar bracket last night. So all i need to do is mount it and put a final weld on it. I gained another 1 1/2" of up travel before it smacks my truss.
Also I forgot I need to remove the lug nut stud that I was using to replace the bolt that fell out of my rear caliper on the last trip.

Don't have alot to do here.
Replace inner and outer driver front axle shaft.
replace lockright in the front.
replace a rear control arm joint.
Install my aw4 manual shifter(fried my old one so built this one from scratch)
then just go over everything seeing it has been sitting in the yard since Feb.
Retorqued my front ring gear and bearing cap bolts last night... everything had backed off 20-50 ft/lbs
how's everybody else coming?
Update: I've just got the easy stuff now. I did have to replace the Cranshaft positioning sensor again. It was my fault. I some how pinched the wire when I raised the crossmember and trans back in place. No biggie though. I'm a seasoned pro at it now. only took 10 minutes.
Rewired the brakes tonight. They are engaging again, but they aren't as strong as I would like them. After some reading, it might be a bad ground.

-vac 20# of dirt out of jeep
- drill and tap rear bumper to get up and down play out of it
-rear tube fenders
-fix OBA
-double check all bolts
-also I would like to install tranny and hydro temp gauges.
-get everything loaded up
well my list is almost done. just gotta put some shocks on
I got the cage built
re-geared
new harnesses
raido and speakers
rock lights
dixie horn installed...
and a few others...been a long time since i have been wheeling, im lookin forward to it!
my checklist..
build wills rig
build cobbies rig
for my rig
wire up brake, tail and headlights
install thermostatic relay for my efan.. (apparently im not smart enought to turn on my fan every time i start the rig...)
replace creek water in my cooling system with antifreeze and clean water..
install bypass hose for my now non-existant heater core
replace broken front center limit strap
i wanted to tear out my rear upper tri-link arm in favor of triangulated uppers but im not gonna have time for that after building 2 other rigs between now and then..
Updated list:
1) Fix leaky valve stem (I think it's being pinched by the internal beadlocks, so I need to break the bead and adjust the beadlock to hopefully fix it). If I can't do that, I'm probably going to need to borrow some air in the mornings to get it back up.
2) Wire rear lights
3) Fix whatever I break this Sunday wheeling it.
you can borrow all the air you want but i'll have to get it back on sunday!
