I completed both axle rebuilds and have them installed on frame, now sitting on rubber on all 4 corners instead of jackstands...too bad there are only a million other things to do yet.
:chug:
 
I dropped her off for a paint job, new front bumper, all new BDS lift, YJ front spring conversion, front tube fenders, and im having the rear tail lights recessed into the body......oh and yesterday it got new tires....

i may start a thread once i have it back just to document and show the changes.

Wheeled the piss out of her, got that new paint all mudded up!:eek:
 
changed my steering shaft coupler.
Took alot of the play out.:chug:
 
I started the fiberglass repair project on my hardtop by removing material around the cracked bolt holes. I also started the installation of diodes for brake and turn signals on my CJ while it is in-tow behind my motorhome.

I also installed a replacement backing lamp below the rear bumper and reworked my spare tire carrier and mounts to tighten up that rattle trap.:o
 
A month of weekends later, I threw up my hands in disgust, pushed my "RIPKEN" CJ5 into to the street and made an appointment for servicing. Perhaps the next project will be more successful. It is from failure that we learn the joys of success. :chug:
 
started building my costom hard top! 3/4" square tube and 18 gage sheet metal :)
I would love to see what you are fabricating for your custom hardtop. Could you please post photos as your hardtop project progresses?
 
Took her out near Spring Mountain in Pahrump

Sold some extra parts and put on new shocks. Also started getting the exhaust bolts out for new exhaust.
 
I adjusted the hardtop doors. Now they shut perfect!
