Introducing “Silver”… a trusted Scrambler built for family fun. Formerly known as “Family Man” on the CJ-8 build thread: https://www.cj-8.com/threads/the-83-family-man.50192/ @AdamH and I have been friends for over 20 years and share a passion (some might call it a disease) for Jeeps. Over the...

Three Jeep Gladiators. One mission—cross the country and conquer the Rubicon Trail. We rolled out of South Carolina early, cruised through NC (where we passed hurricane damage on I-40), and hit fuel stops across Tennessee before crashing for the night in Paducah, KY. The journey’s just...

Need to replace washer hose and firewall grommet. I have seen several sizes of hose used, anyone know correct hose size. I found this grommet for $25… https://www.ebay.com/itm/125278998925?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&com_cvv=8fb3d522dc163aeadb66e08cd7450cbbdddc64c6cf2e8891f6d48747c6d56d2c any...

A Jeep addiction, combined with off-roading, camping, traveling and good food comes together in “Queso”, follow along on this 2023 Jeep Gladiator overland build.

I was thinking of putting my roll bar spare tire mount on Project Penny. I was surprised that there are no holes in the roll bar. The hardtop has the side plates on the inside which indicates it an early 1981. Maybe the early 1981 didn’t have spare mount holes in the roll bar. Anyone have...

Project Penny clutch is not disengaging enough. PO had installed an automatic with a 232 engine, which is same block as 258. I thought putting a T4 would be simple with new, used T4, flywheel, cutch and pressure plate. The cutch pedal is not traveling enough to fully engage clutch, it doesn’t go...

Over on Pappy’s Adventure thread… https://www.cj-8.com/threads/pappys-adventure-1981-restomod.52583/#post-458789 @ag4ever stated “…Between scramblers, guns, and bourbon, that is 90% of my vices. Only other is my ski boat addiction.” Seems like a good country song or thread title… So, share...

This is interesting electric kit at 2022 SEMA Show https://insideevs.com/news/619319/jeep-cj-surge-mopar-ev-restomod-sema/amp/

I really enjoy reading about the various builds on this forum and wanted to share my 2006 LJ build. I bought this Jeep new in 2006 and did most of the mods over the next several months. I crawled this Jeep in Tellico, Windrock and Uwharrie to name a few. I trailered it to many of these trips and...

Inspired looking through old vehicle photos for https://www.cj-8.com/threads/cool-vehicles-we-used-to-own.52455/ An idea “vehicle before and after thread” Only two photos… First, what it looked like when you acquired it. Second, what it looks like now or when you sold it… I will start with a...

It appears Warn made a blinker kit to attach an amber light on ends that may work with Jeep Special Edition 8274 Mount I have is like this photo from internet. I am trying see what light bracket looks like to fabricate a replica. Thanks for any help. Internet Photo Here is my mount and SE winch.

Reunited with our 1982 Cj8 that has had many changes, twist and turns that reminds us nothing remains quite the same. Follow along as we “LOOK BACK” at the various modifications and make “UPDATE” changes in the attitude from show to trail ready.

The TDK Hybrid frame with coil springs uses a TJ suspension. As this jeep moves from show to trail ready started cycling suspension to setup springs and measure for new shocks, springs and control arms. Need to start a new build thread once we have new name.

I have 8274 and 8000m winch test to see which looks best on Jeep. Might need new winch plate… Zeon or VR option too.

I have an original bed mat that needs to go in an all original Cj8. I have a restomod and thought I would make a replica using DeeZee 86794 to protect paint and allow my dog to ride. It’s pretty thick rubber and I found cutting with tin snipes worked the best and then used a flap disc to clean...

Many forum members know about Project Blue, https://www.cj-8.com/threads/project-blue.48957/ built for SEMA Show and then Covid cancelled and Blue sold.

While research something else, I found this chart that shows paint code D8389 for white wheels. Anyone know how to cross reference to PPG?

Swapping PO 2wd auto to T4 with Dana 300. Have trouble getting skid plate bolts to align front to back. Loosen motor mounts, tried ratchet straps with no luck… open to suggestions…
