Back then it might be a real duck. Now that's an idea.
Picked up a 50cal ammo box from the local Army Surplus store and mounted as a center console
Took it to the shop to price out getting the exhaust fixed. PO removed the converters from the engine, it likes to throw codes for O2 sensors and running rich. Tired of resetting my CEL
Smartphone people already have more money than brains, so yea - I can see that...It becomes a better value if you think of it as a smart phone pad.
I got red ones from the same place - they do fade, so you may want to spray some paint at them to protect them.

Looking good...I did the same with mine...I used a Fat 50 box... (slightly wider than the usual 50 Cal box) ... they hold quite a bit of stuff.

Finally got around to fixing the rear window on my Smittybuilt top. Really excited about this because I’ve been avoiding it for over a month now. Fixed it with a fork and 3 YouTube videos 
Figured out how to roll it up and not have to mess with the zipper going around those awful corners again. Also threw in my platform and got my hitch ready. She’s almost road trip ready. I’m towing a jetski 350mi to the beach Friday morning
Opened up the Dana 35 to see my L/S bolts backed out again which is why I stopped driving it 2yrs ago. You know what that means? Run them back in by hand, clean them really well with brake clean and slap some JB Weld on the bolts I just need it to last 1,000 miles, then I’ll throw some new axles under it and fix it properly lol

A lot of people use the fish eye views for pics now. Distorts everything so bad!!!

After buying a new battery several days ago and my Jeep was starting and running fine, I go out to drive it and.......... click click click. Radio and lights were fine. I jump started it to a rough idle and I have to keep on the gas or it cuts off (restarts fine). I'm guessing my nearly 20 year old alternator is bad? Everything went downhill after buying my wife the WJ.
Note to self;
Don't try to be nice anymore.

Got the Jeep back from having new converters thrown on at the engine, essentially a whole new Y pipe. Pardon my ignorance. Definitely lost the “straight pipe” rumble, but the exhaust has a good hum to it still. Amazing how much better it idles and seems to deliver power now! Yay spending money!!!

I myself am willing to help spend your money.
Between this and gears last week, I’m hoping to get a breather
