Looks great!

So when can I drop my Jeep off for you to spend some money on?

 

[Talyn]

The RPM for the dyno can be pulled off one of the wires that plug in to the coil rail. I forgot which one though, so some trial and error may be needed.

Looking good man! I like the HID conversion. Do you still have high beams and lows?

took them out, put some "ZXE silverstars" in, much better

picked these up today...

 

[mike.wadsworth]

where did you get the bumper/rocksliders?

also do you still have your seats? i've replaced the floorpan in my 93 and i'm thinking about fabbing brackets to put some other seats in. just haven't decided what kind to go with.

Someone took a little trip to JCR...

 

[KPTHEMP]

painted everything and installed today; sliders, bumper, tie-ins, front skid

Loooooooooooooooong day

time for bed

LBL in a few hours.

also found my rear axle ubolts were pretty loose after the first 800+ miles, that was scary and it had losened up the rear brake line at the wheel and that was leaking, but its all fixed now and ready to rock on.

 

[bosco01xj]

I always thought map pockets were for trash. At least that's what usually ends up in mine. LOL.

 

[KPTHEMP]

got a lot done since last update, got all the parts painted up, installed and went wheeling at LBL.

took another trip to visit family and JCR, picked up a rear bumper and 1/4 panel integrated armor and scored a ZJ skid at the JY up there, luckily no rust.

painted those up too and installed

really clean body under the factory bumper

nice matching body lines:

and I installed a factory T-case skid I had lying around.

also picked up an HP30 with 4.10 gear from Taylorworld in east TN and going next weekend to meet with RSOR and finish up my 8.8 and install.

1000th post

 

[highspeed]

Congrats on all the above

 

[KPTHEMP]

Installed the new 96 HP30 with 4.10 gears

Turned the big 120 !

Finally got the 8.8 installed with the help of Tyler in Chattanooga:

and upon leaving Tyler's, I almost got nailed by a crazy teen, when her dad said turn left at the last min, glad she did, had she gone right, she probably would have hit me at 50. As I watched this happen, I was amazed she didn't dead on the pole or hydrant

Well, after lacking power for some time, randomly misfiring then running perfectly, missing at idle and odor of antifreeze that gets strong after it gets hot, and the stupid heat soak, I've decided to opt for head swap.

Weighed the options of a JY head vs rebuilt and Rockauto came out on top, with a 3yr unlimited mileage warranty reman.

Also picked up an ATP Stainless Header from amazon for about $150 shipped, with Lifetime Warranty.

Head swap in progress, will update as I go...
