    Sab-a-dab-a-doo! The back-country LJ build has officially started

    Woodrow's 97 Green TJ (NOT SO) Moderate Build

    Nice job sticking it out. Pain when it's one step forward and three steps back but you got there and they came out great! I saved your mods posts for the hinges as I'll deal with that too I've I pick up a set, after I get the armor installed that's been crying itself to sleep for months in my...

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Just check the your clearance for those frame mounts. Mine for the JKS had the tires rub and knock out the lynch pins. Had to start putting a thin rope on the pin to stop from buying more after each off road trip. Ultimately, I just bungie corded the disconnects and sway bar up to the fender...

    What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

    I was looking at the pic before I read your text and thought to myself 'good use of the triangulated brackets to support the shelf.' If you just went with an L-bracket, you'd be at serious risk of droop. If you don't toss up crazy heavy tools, etc up on the shelf, you should be okay with this...

    Host F550 4X4 Motorhome Quad Slide 330

    I get that attitude. And that requires more in-person time away from projects that matter to you. Maybe a phone call with an offer for pics. But that all could also be wasted breath. I would not go in person bc they didn't seem to want to try. That tells me they may not want to learn...

    What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

    HF box of blue towels into the plastic HF to replace. I held off years using paper towels. Now using blue towels I get why they are garage specific. They work so much better in strength and slightly better to absorb. Plastic container is more expensive than the box but the handle on it...

    Host F550 4X4 Motorhome Quad Slide 330

    Dealership: Awning can't be adjusted Wildman (Jeeper): Yeah, okay... [Don't tell me it can't be done] Honestly Rick - if anyone could find clearance, you are THE guy! Watching your Jeep build, we know you are the master of finding an inch (or fraction of an inch) where none exists. —-...

    Bty34 TJ build

    That's unfortunately one of many of the stories I've heard about RockAuto that has turned me away from them. Even, if a few dollars more than Amazon, etc, - I knew the RockAuto would fit right. But the delivery issues I've heard of are pilling up and I have paused myself when I even recently...

    What did you do to / in your garage / shop today?

    Nice window storage solution. I typically use clothing hangers for for pants (the ones with 2x clamps on them) and put those on the c-pillar side of the rear windows. That way I can put them on the hanger at ground level and use the window stiffness of diamond cloth to hang them on a single...

    Sab-a-dab-a-doo! The back-country LJ build has officially started

    I love this style of CAD design. I too have screwed my future self, but, instead of dimensions, I tend to 'over use' construction lines and constraints. Works great on the first design. Can get really wonky when you make future adjustments in overall dimensions.

    Sab-a-dab-a-doo! The back-country LJ build has officially started

    Been there on a design. Even worse can be coming back to a design you haven't worked on for a while and needing to walk through the build steps to remember how you had put it together. Done that recently on a part I designed but didn't print only to come back to months later and spending 10...
