What did you do to your TJ today?

It's definitely a rare '82' with coil suspension and control arms.🤔
Wow! Didn’t even notice that. Must be a futuristic experiment type Rubicon?🤫
Naw, naw, naw.. 😂

My previous Jeep was a Kelly Green, 258, 4spd, '75 CJ 5 I bought in '76 with 5000 miles. Got rolled twice, once by a friend and the second time by me on an icy highway heading to a buddy's funeral in '82-3.
Had a 2 year old daughter and offloaded it after the second rollover. (I did take her from Butte to Seattle in it tho'). So haven't been topless since. Sold my '71 Honda CB750 too. I was a reckless SOB that decade, and beyond.
Now I'm a boring old man trying to live the stuff I loved forever.
oh. I was really confused and just couldn’t understand an 1982 Jeep Rubicon. Could be the beer being consumed while mowing this morning? 🤭

You are correct. Nobody understood your reference of your very specific to you scenario.
 
Finally finished up alignment, charging the battery, still need to recheck suspension torques, got it started after sitting all winter. For a few minutes at least. then smelled burning. Seem alternator is frozen up. Doesn't spin by hand. I can spin it with ratchet but it squeals. Maybe time for a new alternator need to research Dakota?/Durango?

You understood that he had a 75 cj5 that he rolled on the way to his buddies funeral? Sure you did, bud.
No, but unlike you, I didn't assume that he's only ever owned his current vehicle.
