I put maybe 100 miles on mine over the past 9 years. Beat that.

Please continue telling me about your CJ :D

Finally got my spare tire carrier built correctly. I tried using some grade 8 bolts but I couldn't get them lined up just right. So I bought some short little wheel studs. Worked great. Also got the beadlocks installed correctly. 128 bolts at 20 ft-lbs is painstaking to say the least. Drove...

Where to? When? Can I get one of your Jeeps? :D

Pretty much lol. I might stretch the rear another inch but that's about it. If anything I'll push the front axle out about 8" - 10" but that's not for a long time. I would like to have it a few inches forward now but that's a lot of work and a lot of money. And a repeat of everything I just did...

Looks like that'll have to happen!

Yeah a RuffStuff antiwrap bar is in the mail right now :D Hopefully I don't even need it, but at least I'll have it if I do need it. I may actually shop around for some 1" - 2" lift springs, but it'll be pieced together since they're S10 and CJ7. I'm having Border Parts fix them. Both are from...

60 / 14 spring under is finished, except for shocks and I need to shorten the rear driveshaft.

Yessir. Bonita / El Cajon are my two homes.

Thank you much! It's been a love hate relationship so far. Hopefully I'll be able to wheel it this season for the first time.

These are flat 0" lift springs. The shackles are boomerangs and are pretty tall. I acquired them from a pile in Jeff's yard so I'm not sure on the height but they are definitely an inch or two taller than stock. The front springs are factory rear CJ7 springs and the rear springs are factory...

Saving post for future additions

From what I know, the computer / harness is swappable from year to year, but it will require some splicing depending how deep the rabbit hole you decide to go. I elected to buy a 98 computer and harness to match my motor. As I stated in the first post, this is one reason I would recommend 99+...
