well sasquach has gone to a new home.last 2 runs she had to be towed out of the woods...... the kid bought it with out rims and tires and winch and CB ... so I got a few things to start with
Came Across a 1999 TJ sport 5spd 31" good years rear locker 4:11 gears no lift ... hard top soft top ...
So went over their tires r decent frame and body mounts r solid then i lifted the mats..... pass side front floor pan is gone and they patched the drivers but didnt cut out all the bad crap so thats flappin around underneath.... gas tank skid is shot needs a front ujoint < he supplied > , ujoint in front drive shaft and one in the rear drive shaft and front fenders r bad like most... but other then that its good got a newer engine and tranny...
got it home and went right in the garage to check everything over
the plans for upgrades will be
2 inch lift tube fenders
rock rails
stubby bumper with stinger and winch mount so i can get my winch mounted
rear bumper of some sorts
tow points ( has none )
steering box skid and brace
Paint olive drab maybe or just keep it black
and swap out the dana 35 for somthin eles and use the dana 35 locker in the dana 30
but gunna fix it befor i do anything
said their was a front locker .... pulled the cover and it was open but had 4:11s
baby axels
found that it needs 2 front wheel bearing they have a very small amount of play in them
pass side floor pan
fenders easy... just gunna cut the bad section and put a small patch to get me buy for a bit
hood needs to be sanded and painted some surface rust but still solid
baby engine again gunna miss the v8
inside shot
hard top
doors
so i was curious if my 33"s would fit with no lift
need some wider flares
very little rub only on sharp turns in parking lots they will grab abit of fender flare but dont rub on the tub or nuthin
my second mod was to hook up a switch to be able to turn off the dinger and dome light when the doors r off so i dont have to yank the fuse each time
locate fuse 4 wich is door chime and lights
got wirers ready and switch
pull out panel cut the black wire leaving enough to splice ur wires to it the yellows run to the door ... run 2 wires front ur switch to either black wire and wala it works
and this is were the magic is gunna happed not much but it fits a tj very well with room to work and its dry
