I thought you all would appreciate the build I'm doing on this Jeep for a customer. This will generally speaking be a stock looking CJ-7 from the outside visual but have everything else updated otherwise. This will be running a 6.0L Vortec engine with an AZ-15 transmission. Here's a couple of...

So I have been laying low for a couple of years on here and in my personal life. As some of you know, I worked at my family's hot rod shop Chuck's Speed Center for 20+ years playing with some cool stuff. A couple years back, I separated myself from the business and pulled completely away from...

Note to self for all of us west coast people out there....You might make your way to your Advance Auto parts because most of the shelf stuff is 40% off, batteries 50% off, oils 40% off, and the hard parts are 90% off. I just got half of the stuff I need to get my kid's TJ going. That included a...

I have been looking at the truck slide in campers lately for my fishing trips and just getting out with the Jeep in Colorado and such. Since I am in the market for a 3/4 ton diesel truck, this seems like the time to entertain one of these. Do any of you have experience in what look for or wish...

Does anyone have a good source or part number for the window regulator roller by chance? I keep trying to seatch the internet for information but I can not find anything worthwhile. It looks like the Dorman 74402 might work but has anyone ever used that piece?

Here's a few pics from getting out yesterday-

My Scrambler got some screen time in this Moab video that was just posted at about 6:10 into it. :) I really need to get back to Moab........

Myself and two friends had a chance to get out and do some wheeling instead of dualsport riding this weekend in Florence AZ. This has been the first time I have had the Jeep out since the National. Man this thing works good... I just wish that I got more pictures.

What are you guys doing to restore the paint on a vehicle that has been neglected for a long time? We have a young clean up/parts runner at the shop now and he just acquired an early C10 that he's going to start working on and it looks like the paint may clean up.

I'm going to get this thread started today so I can much easier post pics from my phone while I'm up there in Moab. Big fingers and a small phone keyboard don't mix well.......

Who else is going this year? My room is reserved so I guess I need to get to work. Sent from my SM-G920V

Are all steel bulkheads the same or were there any changes thru the years? This is kind of a trick question but I thought I'd throw it out there for you all to see if anybody knows the answer. Sent from my SM-G920V

Yesterday and few of us did a road trip to Florence Junction which is southeast of Phoenix to do some wheeling. Here are a few pics of the day and also I'll have some GoPro videos to post as soon as I can get them loaded. It was a great day with perfect weather. Sent from my SM-G920V

Most of you know what I do for a living by now and I'm always preaching to you all about the tuning(optimizing) on the engines for more power instead of stroker kits, higher compression, cool-guy distributors, etc...... You would be amazed at what you can get out of your current combinations...

Were there soft half doors sold as a Special Equipment option? Sent from my SM-G920V

Could somebody with a TJ take a pic of how the end of the hood rod orients as it goes into the locating hole in the grill for me please? I had to modify one and did not verify orientation before I made the cut...... :banghead:

I've posted up a couple of pics of this Jeep in my shop thread but I figured I'd start a thread just for this Jeep. The project is kinda unlimited(within reason I guess) with possible changes so there are some really cool modifications and a whole lot of really subtle changes on this Jeep. I...

I was going thru some parts the other day and I noticed for the first time that there are two different height roll bar mounted spare tire brackets. Anyone have any idea as to why? Is it that a 1981 mount so different because of the wheelbase width? Sent from my SM-G920V

I had a chance to get my Scrambler out last weekend and do some wheeling on the north side of Phoenix. Here are a pair of videos of me actually wheeling mine.....Imagine that huh? It's not Moab but still pretty cool..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFiQJ1z32p8...

I forgot that I had this video until the other day and I figured I'd share it with you all. So since I have lots of "stuff", I train both of my boys that you do not touch ANY firearms unless an adult is around. If they want to touch or see one, just find me and I'll teach them to handle it...
