Well, the old YJ will be making another appearance. To do:
Swap in 8.8 in the rear Modify rear driveshaft to fit Modify e-brake to fit Figure out my steering play. Rock rails, long overdue. My body is taking a pounding lately. Off road lights, maybe. Find spares.

Try not to break it before Jam. Well I am not doing so well at that so here it goes:
- Weld / Strengthen trace bar Bracket and other axle components - Sleeve Front Axle - Install storage racks - Bush Guard - Roof Rack - 1" Body Lift - Clean it out - Touch up the paint so I can scratch it again

One of my funnest jams was with my near-stock cherokee. Seriously, just bring the stocker and have a blast. Lift it if you want to, but there is no need to do it to have a great time.
