TO DO LIST

Near the same part that Glenn's hi-lift came off a few years ago?

For the record my hi-lift never came off. Bent like a pretzel yes but it was still attached and had to be unbolted....... :wave:

Then he smashed his header panel into the rock and we almost had to burn it down and leave it there.

Jim (beergoggles) had the fuse that blew. The odd one that never blows.

Yep! I have one in the glove box now..... hell I have a few of those monster fuses in there now.
 
That is one of my top crawl moments ever over the years that I've gone.

mac 'too funny' gyvr
 
That was a funny recovery from a place you never wanted to get stuck.
 
-Gooseneck acquired, still need to repack bearings and brakes
-Dodge got new BJ's, new trackbar is on order. Blew rear brakes the other week so I replaced all that
-Jeep is on 3 wheels now, DS front is all back together, turns out I need a new PS inner as well (just called ECGS earlier)
-Jeep needs to get a new battery and battery mount as well


Work is wicked busy, I doubt I'll do anything else to get it ready. Haven't had it out since October, hopefully I can get out to a local place the Saturday before

Went to service the trailer, turns out some of the bearings and brakes are junk. Picked up all new brake and bearing kits for all 4 corners. And then I noticed my 14k trailer has 10k worth of tires on it, new ones coming in this week. The tow pig is ready to go. Replacement PS inner shaft for the jeep finally showed up last night and I got the exhaust back on it. I can't wait to listen to a straight piped hoodstack for 3 days
 
I'm done I think. Hitting up Broken Nut Saturday to watch some big guys play up there. Loading up Sunday and heading over to D's house Monday after work. Tuesday morning we hit the road for Harlan! :) :greensmok :yap:

I went from only having to go to liquor store to the following:
1)upgrade to zj steering parts
2) new hubs / ball joints
3) lose tranny drop
4) replace bushing in control arms
5) replace winch that doesn't work
6) put in full on electric fan
7) upgrade front brakes
8) yellow top
9) probably tires

Going to be a busy weekend.

Ball joints are only thing I really really hate on that list
