thanks everyone  ::woot::  

Uh i've been working on the jeep, school, work, hanging with g/f, that sorta stuff. Just finding more stuff to do on the jeep....like always

havn't been here for a looong looong time. Just sayin hello to everyone  ::woot::

Whats everyone doing this week?

I'll be hanging with my friends. Mabey hit a haunted corn maze/house/somthing.

Sun I have a wedding to attend.
Monday i work in the morn till 1:30 than to a 21st bday party for my friend

The fuel is getting hot. I need to re-route my line. Since the engine is pushed over 3" to the passanger side off center, the header comes close to the fender. I have the fuel line mounted to the fender. Also I need to open up the sides of the fenders to let the hot air flow out. Its just becomming traped.

haha, people always ask why not do the CJ grill conversion. I like the square lights.

here are the specs....

This jeep has seen many changes in the past 4 years that I have owned it. Went from being stock on 31" tires to a small 3.5" lift with 33" tires. Than one winter I tore it all down to do the ultimate build.....that is still costing me money :axe:Gotta love it though haha

sorry for not mentioning everyone. I could only remember jons name since.... i'm really bad with names sorry

That was the most fun I had at the mounds ever. Those tight twisty trails were awesome. Wish i remembered how we got there.

I think after I solve my vapor lock problem the jeep should run great when hot.

hey everyone was at the mounds sat. and met up with jon and his group. Got talking and said he was on this site and handed me a card. Just wanted to say hello to everyone and see ya on the trails!
