Picking up where I left off

[Wildman]

I have the vehicle for you:

The only thing left on it that is TJ the grille and the front half of the frame.

I almost bought it too until Blaine convinced me I wouldn’t be happy with it.

That is a LITTLE over the top for me.

The 90 degree AN fitting? Yes, going to get a good portion of the PSC finished tomorrow.

Awesome news. I’ve been looking forward to a set of instructions for Blaine’s kit!

I don’t blame you. Without the instructions it is a bit confusing. It started to make sense the more poking around I did, but these instructions should take any guess work out of it. The only real difference will be that the steering stabilizer bracket on mine needs to be modified and have a big chunk cut off it to clear the mid-arm truss.

Hoping to start on mine when I return home this weekend.

Just weld a tab to the truss

I’m just notching the rear mount and welding it right to the truss.

Either that or make my way up to where you and Alex are, but that might make for a long trip, and with the kids in school it would be hard to juggle.

We can build two at the same time

Maybe we can invite Blaine and he can throw rocks at us

That sounds as fun as using a fork lift to flip the jeep in order to test the welds.

How’d that pitman arm work out? Just located the puller I bought for the job.

I ended up putting the new pitman arm on. I did however use the puller for the factory gearbox and it worked like a charm. Well worth the money even if it’s a tool that will rarely be used.

Good news! PSC is nearly done, and the rig is getting dropped off at Blaine’s in 2 weeks for the outboard, raised body mounts, and a few other minor things.

Looking forward to seeing it. Let me know if your still willing to part with your old 03-06 steering shaft

FML, I tossed it in the trash last week. I completely forgot

Did you save the pitman arm ?

I feel like a vulture slowly circling and waiting for parts to fall off

Yes, I have the pitman arm

Don't forget to throw the pitman arm away.
