Good luck, but my understanding is that fuel pumps typically only fail when the tank is full.

Installed Mopar Air Deflector and got the top and doors off. Plus a little first day of summer wash.
If I remember when I ordered mine, I had a choice between a standard length spline or an extended length spline. I'm sure I went extended.
My idiot friend used my fender flare as a step a few weeks ago and took off some of my paint, finally got around to fixing it
Yeah after dropping the tank, I realized it was almost half a tank. That gauge was way off!!!
Now waiting for new ngk O2 sensors and picking up a new crank positioning sensor tomorrow.

Ordered a B&M shifter (part #45195). Can not wait to install it!
Swapped the rearview mirror to the 10" size one. Have more of a wider view now without being too obnoxious
Finally got around to installing the 1” spring spacers I made for the front. After a bit of a learning curve it wasn’t that bad of a job. Jeep seems to ride much nicer, I never expected that. Pic for TF of it.
My gosh that's pricey, I wants one !
I ran Gene Berg shifters in my bugs an busses. I love's me a shorty throw shifter.

Right! I’ve been eyeing it for a couple years now. Just took a trip from Michigan to North Carolina and the drive through the West Virginia mountains made me decide it was time. People that have swapped it in say it makes a huge difference.
Pulled the top completely off, removed the back seat and all seat components. The top of is because it's going to the paint shop Saturday and the back seat is so I can put a storage box in the back.
New no-name soft top in Spice, was a Father's Day gift. Like the look much better than the old black one that was on it. As a bonus, these windows are unscratched, so I can actually see out of them now!
If anyone wants the old Frankenstein setup I was running (Shittybilt soft top with OEM Mopar windows), I'll be listing it for the $75 I paid for just the Mopar windows (which are clear and near perfect). No hardware, but I'll throw in the nearly opaque Smittybilt original windows as well.
And the wheels on the bus go round and round.
Sorry for such a late reply. Yeah, just the glass pack. Eventually I'll get a real muffler but it works fine for now. It's not too loud at all. Definitely deeper.
I finally got a new hard top! I've waited almost ten years, running with a loud, floppy soft top.
It's so great. I love, love, love it! Looks like a whole new Jeep

Went to eat in West Monroe while traveling for work. Ate on the water and snapped this bad boy in the way out! Frame was super clean, coworkers made fun of me for looking! 
Ok. This will be the coolest car thing i will ever see. A TJ towing a vintage VW.Tuesday I had to go rescue my baby from the Cali state line. 600 mile round trip through 117 degree temps. Was driving the bug back from a week event in Chino and the coil slid down in its mount and shorted all the wires and the wiring harness went up in smoke from back to front almost burnt the car to the ground. Lucikly it didn't. CA State Trooper emergency tow an hour and a half closer (still 2.5hrs away) was going to cost $800 to $1000. So my buddy who was following me pulled me 7 miles to the next town where I put it in a hotel parking lot overnight so I could come back home and rent a Uhaul dolly for $45 and drive the jeep back to get it.
Jeep did fine 70+mph with the AC on for the most part. It went through some coolant all of a sudden and got hot for a few min then went back down. So I'll have to check that out soon.
Jeep rolled over 60k miles on this trip

I sold my pristine '67 a few years ago.
Put the painted diff covers back on with felpro gaskets, filled the diffs. Rotated my incorrectly installed sway bar link. Drove her around for a while while we have this good weather.

got my axle back yesterday and got it installed today. Now I need to plumb and wire the lockers. 
excited to be able to hang with the big boys now. Also, snow wheeling, but that can take its time coming back…
