Good, since it bugs you I will leave it as is.... The plan is to put a straight edge on them and straighten them up the put cheap flexy flares on it. The rear is going to be the real pain, I had to cut past the pinch in some areas and I didn't exactly know what I was doing and have to weld...

Highspeed, they are 33's. I am unsure of the gear ratio and haven't had it on pavement but it does ok for now. Mr Smith, thank you and I will try to find some.

The plan is to weld it back together with 18ga. The pinch was gone for the most part, I cut till I hit good metal. I would like some 37s but they aren't in the budget for this truck.

I have been spraying it down with PB religiously since the start of this mess... Guess I need to buy Kroil by the case instead lol! Got the drivers side rear lifted with out much trouble, passenger decided it would not let me off easy.... I did manage to bust the front leaf spring bolt loose...

No doubt, it has me worried about everything else I need to remove now.... I got the leaf springs loose of the rear axle, just need to get the spring loose of the body and put the rear AAL, shocks, new bushings etc on. The front is next and I'm praying for less problems.... Side note, the...

Thank you sir, me too! Lol. In case anyone wondered, 33 12 fifties do not fit stock XJs very well...

Second coat is on and done! Got my kobalt electric impact so hot I couldn't hold it anymore... Removing this... Twisted all the bolts off... Normally I would have kept the hitch but the ball mount was totally rusted in, my Cummins Ram and a chain couldn't get it out, a good soaking of...

Got a few goodies, the liner and the beginnings of on board air. Ugly? Yes... Better? Yes... Do I care how it looks? Noooo... :D.

I just traded off a bear Montana supreme, bocote and zebra wood...

I wish ours was open, comes in the 15th of October. I have never even shot a crossbow, I reckon when my shoulder finally gives out I will get one. I started hunting with my recurve 2 years ago and haven't sealed the deal yet. My compound puts meat on the table. Stay safe out there and send me...

Haha! I heard that! Come on down just anytime. I got the passenger side 2x6 rocker on, but I used 2x2 tubing to support it, I'm gonna have to cut an angle on them because they hang down further than expected. Floor pan is totally welded in, just needs grinding, roofing tar, self etch, enamel...

Real men fab in the dirt... Lol! While they wish they had a concrete slab, but hey no neighbors and the deer don't care if I cut grind and weld all night, haha!

Man now I find out that the unibodies were galvanized after '87... That and the seem sealer explains the nice little monkey that was handing me my hammer when I needed it... Lol! I am going to be more careful for sure, no joke have had headaches since starting this. Good news is I only have...

Whatever jeep used as seam dealer is some bad bad stuff..

I'm using .030 flux core wire feed on 1 and heat on 30, take your time and tack away. Yes the entire inside is getting lined and the bottom is getting undercoated.

A couple shots of the cleaned, primed, and primed again main member on the passenger side, I did manage to get the rear 3rd of the new panel in place but was too dark for pics, will post some more tomorrow.

Oh and 89 Sport... Get that jeep out of the barn!! Lol.

Yeah it's a rough one, but I figure for $500 it's worth the effort. The upside is I'm learning a lot and having some fun too. The 3" RC lift I have did not come with a block for the rear just the aal... Maybe I'm missing some parts? I'm going to go ahead and buy some new rear leaves wether...
