And yeah I'll get to going
And yeah I'll get to going
Do tell?
I sold my soul for half doors.
May you all have a friend like our purple TJ friend. I am not physically able to be mush help. He did all the labor. Our purple TJ friend now has the Unobtanium Savvy bumpers.
Finally got around to drilling drain holes in the bottom of my frame rails...I mean, I've only had her since May. Deemed not visually exciting enough to warrant a photo.
As per my Jeep wrenching experiences, I am having a tough time getting the transmission rear output shaft seal seated properly.
Hey driver do those doors match your tub, you need to wash your tub
! They certainly don’t match your hood ! Congratulations

Full doors loaded in the back along with the sides and back of the soft top for the drive home. I have been living the wrong way. Where have these doors been all my life?!!
BTW, I now need my father's help to unload the rear of my Jeep.
It started with 2 perverts- @ @tr21triton and @John Cooper and a duck. They put a black duck on my rear bumper with Velcro. A black duck is a curse. This happened-
Thank God @RangerTJ was there, so at least one person has some sense and a lug wrench -
So I called @Jerry Bransford for ideas ( he suggested get away from the 2 clowns ) and yanked the axle
While we did the teardown@tr21triton wobbled down to o’reillys and got studs- we knew mine were chewed up-
And we got down to the root of the problem- these tapered ends for fast assembly created less threads, which is not good on the barely long enough Rubicon rear studs- (@Jerry Bransford recommends and runs deep reach lug nuts) These were on my chromoly axles - big mistake.
Alls well that ends well-
Got to see this incredible view and more -
Huge thanks to all the guys and Jerry Bransford in the tech support department.
Every time we get together it is a real adventure.

Where’s the picture of the duck? Asking for a friend.
I’ll post that shortly. Them perverts.
I was about to give up for the night. But I decided to try 1 last time and was able to get the trans rear output shaft seal installed and get the TC input shaft seal installed too.
Tomorrow, I gotta put the TC back in the Jeep.
And if I am feeling stupid, then I'll start to take out the dash to replace the heater core.
