@barrys @Chamba Much of my Scrambler is based on that project. That was Mark Werkmeister's project. He is in the First Annual San Juan Scramble held in 1998. I posted our video on YouTube. I towed my Scrambler from California. Terrible video quality compared to what we have now!

Got the Scrambler out yesterday to a fund raiser for the Rubicon Trail Foundation. The CTI trailer was there! See my full post with more pics here: https://www.cj-8.com/threads/voodoo-blue-82-complete-refresh.52225/post-464650 Here is a teaser:

It's been a little bit since my last post. Was dialed in for two jeep trips but life happened. My otherwise healthy 88 year old father fell and hit his head at night. Required 8 staples. He went home after that but started slurring his speech and talking slowly. We called 911 and they got...

Looks like everyone is having fun!

Nice score. (and restraint) The Denali looks clean.

I used the Ford F-250 shock towers in the front. They work great. Part #: E5TZ-18183 And there are some pics in my build thread here: https://www.cj-8.com/threads/voodoo-blue-82-complete-refresh.52225/

Do it! The orange one is sweet.

I also installed a Tuffy locking storage box just behind the front seats. This is keyed the same as my glove box and center console. This will keep my tools and recovery gear locked up at all times. Then I can still fit my Dometic CFX3-45 refrigerator and three of the Rubbermaid 24 Gallon...

If you recall, I added the stereo amp to the bottom of the Tuffy locking console. I finally made the "false bottom" to protect the wiring. I used some left over 1/2" thick commercial cutting board and 1x1 wood blocks to elevate it. I needed 1.5" to clear the wiring but gave it 3" to allow...

I was considering that tank. Here are a few pics I collected over time: (are any of these members on this forum?)

I've never sat in suspension seats. How do they feel compared to good quality standard non-suspension seats? Noticeable improvement over bumps? Would love your impressions if you have formed one yet.

If any of them want to sponsor me, I'd be open to that! :) As for your wife....she better smack you upside the head for that comment! Mine would!

This was November 17, 2019 - the day I started tearing it down: And this was September 25, 2022 - the first day I drove it around the block. What a glorious day! That's 1043 days. Or 2 years, 10 months. Or 34 months. And this is from a nice Sunday drive last weekend. I have about 700...

If you want to run the AC and you are not in a campground with hookups, you will need to bring a generator large enough to handle the load from the AC. Same for a microwave, everything else can run off the batteries. In my pic, the compartment you see to the bottom right of the main door is...

I had a Lance 820 camper for my 1999 F-350 7.3 PowerStroke Diesel. I bought both new in 1999. I still have the truck with 250K miles and it is going strong. I used the Lance a lot and loved it. Sold it in 2021. It was at the point of needing some refresh work. The roof and sides needed...

Ditto. I too spent a lot of time chasing down a squeak while wheeling. Damn hood latches!
