Latest Scrambler projects

[Chamba]

For those of us too lazy to do a cool and beneficial thread for everyone like Randyzzz, Rubclt, Spankyrjs, etc. I thought it would be fun to have a thread for little projects we've completed; like a daily Scrambler thread, but for improvements (if there is one I couldn't find, my apologies). This way there's is some record that we actually improved our old rides.

I finally added a high lift jack to my spare wheel rack. I've had the mount sitting around for a while and just haven't had the time to make the bracket for it.

Great idea !

I like this idea for a thread! Today I'll be affixing the new Plates (see updated sig )
Once it's home I am finishing mounting the oem rock rails & painting the front fenders black rhino (along with my half doors) to match the rest. I'm finishing grinding elevator bolts today for the rock rails
While the flares are off I need to cut a sliver off the rear of each fender flair so those rock rails fit

I just went to home depot and realised i forgot to add the best picture: factory spare stop now keeps the jack from hitting the tail light. I need to get a new rubber bumper though. Any recommendations? The one i bought a few years ago from Quadratec was so poorly made it dry rotted in under a year.

Well, i went down to see my guy and check on the '8. Pictures attached. Notice the first pic and the loosening bondo... Metal cut out and new put back in. Also holes in the wheelwells too. Fixed the same way. Going to get some primer in the next few days.. Think the wait is going to be worth it...

After ripping the frame on the wife’s ride at national’s I’m finally getting it back together.
Thanks to Jason for getting me the frame reinforcement plates they fit great. Cut everything off drilled end of cracks and plated inside the frame tube then put plates on

Also run a new cross brace from track bar mount across to opposite side of frame to reduce pressure on drivers side

Using it as a pusher!!!!

Got a couple update pics on the paint progress. Tub basically primed. New Rt Fender/ Doors, Front grill, Tailgate and roll bar next up. Not sure if it will be Concours, but it will be way better than before...

And patience will be my newest virtue....

Been cutting out the bad parts of this frame and making pieces to fit in. Just delivered the frame to the guy that does my welding for me this evening. Picked up the tub he welded panels into. Just trying to get some stuff done to this while it is easy to get to.

More pics to bore you with! He posted these on his FB page too. He commented he can't wait to get it together with the stripes on it...

Edit to add- not sure what I did to double post pics, but enjoy!
