To Do List

[Andy in Pa.]

The swamp ass meter was at its most highest levels here over the weekend. I was working out in front of my house & had to take numerous breaks, so I did not turn into liquid. Jeep is just about ready, just need to change the oil & re-check everything next weekend.

Thanks for reminding me... gotta do that "change Oil" thing too...

Not gonna get my traction bar done before NAC-Fest, just no time right now. The shackle re-location brackets are modded and will be welded in place though.

Hmm...

- reinstall & bleed rear brakes
- rear diff cover/new bolts/sealant/torque axle bolts
- longer upper links
- service rear driveshaft
- service front driveshaft
- redo coolant reservoir
- wire horn
- re-fit gas tank cover
- order/install limit straps
- reinstall window nets
- service steering as needed

That's for the Line Mountain race this weekend.

I'm sure I'll have a new list to take care of next week though.

Nice, looks really good Chris!!! Did you add all of that additional structure/tubework to the rear too?

 

[vetteboy]

Yeah, rear axle was a complete re-do.

The shocks are ridiculously big.

Still have some clearance issues to work out, probably not before NACfest though.

Yeah I change the oil in the jeep based on what the dipstick looks like because I dont drive it enough to know when its really time to change it.
