    Replaced the windshield/frame, now it will pass inspection so I can get out of the garage and onto the trail.

    Took it out a little side track road and up an old logging road to the top of the mountain just because. No need for 4wd other than to get into low range but it passed the time and it was fun to be out in the woods. I wish there were more roads around here like that, but one is better than none!

    Yesterday I checked the rear axle oil, transfercase fluid level, and lubed the rear driveshaft.

    Kicked it when I walked past it this morning....bad jeep bad!

    The transmission swap became another transmission rebuild since I have to use the original SM420 case that was modified for the conversion, I can't use the replacement case I bought. The old one just had too many little modifications.
    So I basically have to swap all the new guts into the old case....

    The Mouser hauled me out to the woods today for a wet, rainy turkey hunt. After that it brought me back home where I gave him a good interior cleaning and changed his oil.

    My junk is still sitting at the shop I work for waiting for a front axle housing swap after the collision with a pre runner buggy in Baja two weeks ago...I fared a little better than he did...




    My front axle housing got bent a little, and my lower control arm mount got bent over under the diff housing. Cupped the hell out of my front tires on the way home, but surprisingly it steered straight, had it up to 65 MPH at times. Kilby rockers took the brunt of the hit without a blemish, TSL/SX got a chunk in the sidewall but it doesn't leak.

    Took my rear Dana 70 out of my gas rig to regear it and put it in my diesel rig. And yes it came stock under my Jeep. Guess what Jeep it is? Front is stock too and its a Dana 60.

    Yep that was quick. I have a fair passel, herd, flock, school, whatever you want to call it, of them. I just can't call them what my wife does, it would probably get me banned from this website and possibly the internet.
