What did you do to or with your CJ today?
Tried to put the new super top soft top on that I order from 4 wheel parts, only to find that i was missing the hardware and the door handles were missing as well. I can't give them total blame though. I think if falls back on Fedex. Looks like I will be going down to 4 wheel parts tomorrow. :mad:

That sucks! I had that happen back when I was a teenager once when I ordered a cam and lifter set. UPS delivered it. When I opened it I found a lot of styrofoam popcorn, and a box of lifters, but no cam. The weight that was written on the box proved it had a cam in it when it was shipped, but somewhere along the way, a UPS handler cut open the box, removed the cam, and taped it back closed. I was pissed because it delayed getting my daily driver back on the road for three more days. When you're 18, it's not cool having your mom drive you to work and college. Lol
 
Got a new top again and driver side seat. Looks like I'll be busy tonight. :D
 
worked on it...
its in the backyard on jackstands waiting on me to put the clutch in tomorrow.....
 
I'm catching a serious buzz right now. I bought some spray on bedliner for the Jeep's frame. It's going on right now but I had to take a break. The fumes are pretty good. I'm glad I have a door on the side of the garage to help the wind carry the fumes out.

I'll post pictures when I'm done.
 
Took it out last night for some ditch play and a sand pit.Everything went good.NO BREAKAGE.Wish we would get some rain here in So IL Havent had a chance to play in any mud
 
Duct taped some rusted through holes on my rear fender wells. NOT AS A FIX........just to keep the exhaust fumes from coming inside until I get the chance and materials to fix it correctly.
 
i went to a mud bog race and saw a scrambler, CJ7 and CJ5 as well. it was sweet
 
Still a little dizzy from the bed liner spray fumes but I got the frame mostly done. I just need to gusset the rear spring perches and I can start putting it together. :banana:

Now this may be a little stoopid to y'all who have been around CJ's for a while. Changed out the coolant overflow bottle, and tucked under it -- an ignition module! There's one on the passenger side fender well in plain sight, but didn't know that one was there. Guess it's time to do some more wire tracing to see what's what.

Looks good. :drool:
 
Got the new seat in put the new top on the day before and went for a Sunday drive on Apache Trail. The should rename it banging bones, for all the bones in my body that got banged up along the way. It was fun though.

 
Received my new upper doors from Bestop so now I can stay dry in bad weather! Saturday I mounted up the bike rack that I modified to clear the spare tire and we took the mountain bikes out to the lake for a good ride.

This weekend I mounted the spare tire rack and rerouted the fuel lines. Found out they were routed incorrectly causing vapor lock. Took it out for a drive. Mounting the spare gas tank today and then start to work on a tow bar.
 
Tell us more about the spare gas tank??:cool:

I got the front suspension bolted up and set on the front axle so I can see what I need to do to get the spring perches set up right. The weight is on the wheels but the cherry picker is still hooked up since I'm going to need to lift it up and set it back down a couple more times.

I put new hubs on and then had to go pull out my wife's bravada. Not her bad driving it was mine. Good thing I had a high lift or it would have stayed there till I could get a bigger truck, that thing is heavy.
