Hmmm they are still in phx not far from work. May need to go see them at lunch one day.

Picked up the jeep from Andrew. 4:88's and a front locker with new hubs. I just dropped a lot of money for stuff no one will ever see... LOL. I didn't get a chance to drive it other than loading it. Seems like more low end power as in I didn't have to floor it to get up the trailer.

The sexiest stuff is the stuff you can't see.

Bob, what needs done before Rubicon?

Jeep still has the dog tired, oil eating 4.2
Top speed is about 55mph

I need to do an oil change and diff service before KOH

Carb tune/rebuild before Moab.

Everything else is good as far as I can tell.

That's nice it's such a small list this time round lol

Bob, any idea on timeline before the Jeep is ready to hit the trails?

Week or two. Was going to try and knock it out on Monday since its a holiday.

Must be nice lol

I just need everything to hold together for another month...

Have the 4L80, 241 w/sye, fuel pump and regulator...
After EJS I will sell off the parts I picked up for the 360 and then sell off the eng and trans. That should help cover most of the wire harness.

If you don't want to spend a ton of money on AN fittings and hose, I get it.. but you will need to buy hose and fittings for the fuel system. AN fittings that tie into the stock fuel rail on the back of the motor, braided hose to your fuel cell and fittings from that to the cell. And whatever you need in between for the pump / filter / regulator.. SDHQ has all this but you can usually buy them cheaper from amazon, summit, or jegs.. Make sure you stick with Russel or Earls for fitting brands. Trust me on this.

Yep that's still the plan.

New things the Jeep needs:
Brake work. Real bad fade at the stoplights if Im in drive.
U-Joint: Front Driver shaft needs new joint pressed in
Shackles: Have new upgraded shackles that need to go on.

This Jeep sucks. :p
