I assume the ring will get here too late for me to do anything today since it hasnt come yet. And I got class tonight.

Itll most likely be a saturday test drive. Then you can come with me..... Then I dont have to die alone. DEATH RIDE 2011!

cool?

She say's she has no problem hitting french guys with her man hands.  :o

fumed off this week.

Got my drive shafts re-done... again. Was getting ready to test drive and just adjusting some links and junk. Went to jounce the front shock and as soon as I moved it it sunk. All the pressure leaked out.

So I could rebuild it again and change the orings but then I said frack IT! Now I have 14" Coil overs coming my way.

Its honestly like my jeep just doesnt want to drive until 2012....  >:(

Kinda funny how Jeff posts an update and your not far behind.  ;) How much money is riding on who wheels first ;) And is it coincidence that Jeffs rims are blue?  :o Either way, looking good!

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

Well typically I get 1 week night and 1 day (Monday's) to work on my jeep and if there's been good progress I'll post up some updates. It's the little stuff like yoke installs, new rims and tires, drive shaft installs, welding mounts for brakelines, bending new brake lines, paint etc that I rarely report about.

It's not a race, though no matter what Jeff says he won't be done till march/april. He has it all planned out but it's the little things that take alot of time and things you don't think about. Not to mention waiting for parts. When I started I thought I was looking at 3 days. As of today it's been 5 months. But keep in mind, I've done tcase swap, tranny swap (not an easy one), coilovers with hoops and frame re-enforcing, steering box with hydro assist, all stuff he is getting away with not doing. Well as of yet...
