Well I finished my tube work last week. Got body work done through the week, and worked off 3rd shift friday. Picked jeep up at the house carried to Father-n-laws shop and sanded, cleaned. Saturday Get there at 9:00 am and tape off. Clean again. And Paint. Boy have I been busy. Not an XJ but I spent a lot of time on here so I thought I would post my junk up any way.

Didn't do much of anything last weekend...kinda sat around and worked on being lazy for a change.

Met up with Dad and Grandma for lunch yesterday, then took my buddy out for his 21st birthday last night. Got up this morning and fixed the Christmas lights on the house, put new struts on the rear hatch of the Jeep, and also cleaned the IAC to see if that fixes the sudden buggered up idle it started having this week. So far so good!

I installed the last of my 3 IR security cameras.

Just one more camera, for the back yard, and I'm done.

Well I just got my 231 transfer case in. Good bye 242 and hello SYE. I ran it around on just the front shaft because I need a u-joint for the rear and noticed some bad popping in my front end. I took the front cover off and yep all the welds from the Tellico repair broke and took some more teeth with them. I guess instead of just installing the rear DS Friday and being done I will have to get my other carrier and weld it and install it.

You slinging or just live in a bad neighborhood? lol

I have thought about getting some for my house and we have no problems here. What brand did you go with and how much for 3 cameras?

caglezj, I want to see more pics of the trailor fenders, that's something I need to do on mine.

No good neighborhood, just messing around. Each camera is about $97 after shipping from Gadspot.com (use the paypal option since their checkout isn't secure).

Video capture card from bluecherry.net for $139, 4 port 120 fps. Comes with software for monitoring cameras (for windows).

I use ZoneMinder (zoneminder.com) on a LINUX server.

I got exo cage done


pics of it painted

Here is a few pictures. I used 1.75 HREW that had the seem deburred. Looks like DOM but it's not. I picked it up much cheaper than HREW or DOM at 24.00 for 12' stick. It is .120 wall . I used 1.50 x .120 wall as the support pieces going down in the center. Hope the pictures help. Took me a couple hours to bend everything but about 8 to bend and shape the checker plate like I wanted it. I also angled the outer piece of the top to push my tires back to the inside of the trailer. To help keep me from sliding off. Keep in mind tube is slick when wet. I didn't have to do both sides but I wanted it to look uniform . I will never use the passenger side as a drive over fender.

If anyone around Huntsville would like something like this done. Just pm me. I can make pretty much anything or have the means to get it. Could do trailer fender ramps over a weekend. 256-431-8618

Big Salvage yard day. Picked up a 231 to AW4 adapter so I can clock my T-case. I also picked up an D30 HP to start building on. I am going to try sleeveing, trussing, adding WJ outers along with 4.88's (copy Cals D30 HP build) so I can run 35's with some hope of it not breaking. T Case clocking and trans cross member first (copy of BSFab, www.bsfab.net) and then start on the D30 build. I also grabbed an extra 231, front shaft (I use them in the rear too) and a set of mirrors.

This ought to keep me home at nights for a long time to come.

Replaced the rear main seal, still leaking. I have been searching and brainstorming, going to look into the back of the valve cover tomorrow. Might as well do the oil filter rings as well.

 

[~Spanky~]

Opened a box.

Found this. 5500Lb. First one and as a gift, I cannot complain. Beats the come-a-long!:laugh:

 

[shelbyluvv]

I got the 97 steering column installed in the MJ today. Took all day but it is done. Tomorrow I will start putting the 97 XJs wiring into the truck.

 

[Mr.Shrek]

Well so far it has been a weekend of good and more bad. I converted the interior over to gray dash and all, replaced the seal on the rear dif cover, replaced fluid in rear diff, got the speedo working, fixed the front brake dust shields. Now for the bad: the trans ahs stopped pulling, I messed up some of the steering column because now it's loose and the key won't go back to lock. So now it ;ooks like I will be pulling the trans back out to rebuild and getting back into the steering column to trouble shoot that. Hoping to get it all done in time to go play in LBL. Hope all of you guys had a nice holiday weekend.
