    spankrjs's Biloxi, MS '83 Scrambler

    Time for the yearly oil change on this one, and it actually had 3k miles on it since last year. With the annoying vibration gone I've been driving it more and more. Greased everything up and did a general welfare check on everything. Good to go, except now the rear pinion has a bit of...

    My '81 journey. . . so far.

    Could be a bad HEI module, even if it is new. Does this HEI set up have an external coil?

    What's on your Work Bench?

    Two wheel barrels worth of roots I removed from the dirt floor of the Jeep storage tent. Smoother ride in and out of there now!

    Great/Best CJ Body Shops

    Yeah, I went be Underdog back in December. They seemed interested, I told them I knew it wouldn't be cheap. The guy said he would call me when he was shopping near my house so he could come by and take a look before I hauled it up there. Never heard back, I can go bug them again. I keep...

    Great/Best CJ Body Shops

    I'm still farting around with my 1986 CJ7 project Jeep. I was thinking of attempting the real body work myself, but being realistic, not sure I have the time to learn all the skills. And, the time to realistically accomplish the results I would want. I was happy with the work the local shop did...

    Which upper doors do I need?

    I recommend this one. Put a 1/2" wide thin strip of 3M double sided trim tape on face of WS frame where the visible front seal shows, done.

    Another Scrambler Purchase/Road Trip - UPDATE- BODY ON FRAME AGAIN

    Drove this one down the interstate to work the other morning during heavy rain to test the waterproofing work I attempted. No leaks from any of the windshield areas, side doors, or hard top/rear glass/bulkhead. BUT, I still got a little puddle of water on the passenger side rear floor, corner...

    Spankrjs 1986 "Ploy-Boy" CJ-7

    The carport/install crew finally were scheduled. They showed up Friday, 3 hours later, complete. I went with higher then normal for a car port sides. I mainly did this to have more clearance around the braces that run from each column back up to the trusses. I will probably eventually stud in...

    Torqueflite 999 rebuild

    That's right, Overlander. My '86 is probably going to need some attention. The column parts are good, probably some slack/missing/damaged parts that go from base of column back to the transmission. I need to take a better look.

    Another Scrambler Purchase/Road Trip - UPDATE- BODY ON FRAME AGAIN

    Quick update. Since I will be daily driving this Jeep in the rain for the next few days I decided to install some new wiper blades and arms. On the arms, the springs were old/weak, passenger arm tweaked a little bit from contact with a tree limb. Part number for new wiper arms: And new...

    Spankrjs 1986 "Ploy-Boy" CJ-7

    I start this one up and drive it around the neighborhood pretty regularly to keep it fresh. Last few runs both belts have been slipping non stop. Power steering was still working but the alternator was not charging. Belts that came on this Jeep, definitely not original. Bought two new cheap...

    Another Scrambler Purchase/Road Trip - UPDATE- BODY ON FRAME AGAIN

    Small update on all the weather proofing work. I drove the Scrambler around for about 45 minutes a few weekends ago during moderate rain. No rain water leaking up front anywhere, no rain leaking in from the back of the hard top or the bulkhead. But, I had a little bit of water on the...
