Re: My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
Def do the rear main while you have the pan out... Cheap and have to drop the pan to get to it- and likely to leak one day if its not now

Re: My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
In hindsight I see I sound like captain obvious there... but didn’t see you mention it, and who knows who references it down the line... google pulls some crazy stuff out of the air some times... so for the next guy

Re: My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
what clear did you use?
all is not lost if you let it fully cure and sand down the high spots, or you could hit it with another color from an angle, then sand it to get some neat two tone look. |

Nice and purty.
That should show the oil leaks really well. (Knowing how Jeeps work)

My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
So we spent some time fishing and soaking up some sun Ray's on the river and lake this weekend. Missing have the jeep to go on trips in, but man I gota say the pickup is nice. I've pulled welder and tools out of it. Just nice
This is the snake river in Idaho one of my favorite secret fishing spots. One of those places you hope the small ones get of before you get reeled in. Did manage to get flywheel bolted on bolts cleaned and locktighted with red. I tourqed to 90 since I decided to reuse the old ones. I'm debating on going out right now and bolting clutch on and stuffing tranny. Kinda thinking i might bolt tcase to tranny and stuff them together. The tcase shift lever pivot point bracket bolt is a pain to get to while in there. There may be random photo of magnaflow xl muffler in here. More on that later maybe ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

Re: My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
Did you pull in the bass on the river or at the lake? I’m learning to catch em on the fly rod... a river with bass happening would be mega fun!

Re: My jeep build with photos over the last few years.
The bass came off the river. I hve best luck with tube baits.
They are all fun to fight in the river current you get that acasional bigger one that strips your line down to nothing as you be jinger with only 6online on the reel On a side note I drove the jeep last night got the slave bled on the first shot. Clutch feels supringly stock the luk gold. Front drive line is not in rear axle still howling like crazy. Will start axle swap tonight to the 8.25 also have 1.25 heims in route for the front along with some link tabs I gues it's just time to do it all and be done. Did some measuring lowers will be about 32"is with a 1.25heim snug to the frame bottom link looks to be nearly level almost scarey level. I have enough heims to scrap the pumpkin side mount and go think off the passenger side. Though I already invested in the press in Johnny joint ohhwell. I look hard at the stinky fab link brackets but just cant justify the nearly 400 bucks after shipping. After searching hard I think sfr brackets are the best on the market for what i want |

The SFR brackets meaning the crossmember? Is t their 3 link set up for drivers side upper? Definitely beefy but ya $$$$
