    Oh! I forgot 2 things I've done! Posi-lok shifter to replace the passenger side vacuum axle disconnect (WTF was AMC thinking?!) And LED lights. Just under $200 $150 for everything. Brings the total to approximately $4450 $4400. (Edited because i realised i had already added the Posi-Lok in an...

    $224 for seatbelts, another $17 for a rearview, and $8 for rearview mirror mounting glue. Also ordered new motor/trans mounts (Rubber, $70) and a horn, because after I pulled the badly wired "la cucaracha" horn, there was no horn. ($27) Installed the rearview today. Wife loves the Cheep Jeep...

    A pile of stuff has been creeping forward on Lo-Buck. Got the doors painted (rattle-canned). Passenger side windows doesn't want to roll down, so i will have to take it back apart. Hard top is almost done, just need to install the back glass and struts. Got the Motorcraft 2150 on. Went on a...

    Well, I bought pizza cutters - 33x10.5s

    I vote for no spacers. I like the 'look' with spacers a little better, but if it was MY Jeep, I'd think "is the extra stance worth another potential mechanical failure point?" The I'd thing "nope" and run 'em without spacers. This is coming from a guy that made that decision on his YJ with...

    Fitted doors on Lo-Buck. Got 'em adjusted and they fit, now. Or, as well as doors can fit on a jeep that's been banged up a bunch! They should be watertight, at least.🤣 Once I get 'em painted, I'll get all the good hardware switched to them and fit them with the top. Got around to addressing...

    Lo-buck YJ

    Thanks! Im having a blast working on this thing. I love my TJ, and it's a beast offroad, but I often miss it before all the mods. This one is giving me a chance to keep it on a mild lift and 33's and just use it as a runaround, which is exactly what I want! I hear you on the reminders. I...

    Dana 30 HP and Dana 44 ARB locker install and re-gear

    Survey size of 1, but when I regeared my rear 44, the bearing caps were switched to the wrong sides by a previous owner. I switched them back to their original position and have had no ill effects.

    Coupe of updates on Lo-Buck. Got new 33x9.50r15 Kenda Klevers mounted on my freebie wheels. I think they look a lot better than the 12.5 wides that were on it (plus, the date codes on them are from 2026, not 2016🤣). Finished up the fiberglass and paint on Lo-Buck's hardtop. The Bikini top was...

    Well, the YJ has been in my yard a few weeks, and im starting on projects. Got the hardtop glassed and primed. My kiddo goes to College in 3 weeks. He offered to come help me, which i took him up on. Showed him how to do fiberglass in the driveway. More importantly, I spent 5 or so hours with my...
