What did you do with your Scrambler today?

These are the wooden shims being attached...

The bolts and washers are keeping pressure on them so the wood glue bites in and holds.
I sanded a little on both sides, made the sandwich, and voila! They came out great.
I will try to put them on this weekend after the CJ5 gets out of the way.

Mounted them up last night... looks good... pic sucks, but they are stunning, more pictures by camera this weekend.

Drive it to work.....79 and sunny on the way home, wished I'd left the doors at home!
 
It is 18 degrees here and snowing, and once I get those wheels on, i am going for a ride!

Got the body on the frame, only 4 body mount bolts lined up with the glass tub:banghead: going to have to move the rest:banghead::banghead:
 
I ordered my fuel lines from Classic Tube. They are the pre-bent stainless steel. Not fitting that great. I just got them today from fed-ex.

I have the pre-bent brake lines from rugged ridge. Fit great.

I would look into classic tube next time, for fuel lines.

I'm getting mine from Inline Tube. Hopefully they will fit with no issues!
 
I ordered them Feb. 20th. I just got them. The guy said it takes awhile to make them. The tubes had stickers with part numbers, and date made. Mine where made in early February. I don't get it. They where made awhile a go, and still takes a month.
 
Tuned the carb, put on the swaybar links, and chased deer...

I finally got the seats down from the loft, attached bases and then got them mounted... kid approved! She sat in it and she loved it... but she did mention the flintstone floor.

Not pictured yet is the work I did on the door strikers as mine were mangled... and all the bolts broke when I took them out. I had a YJ set, so I modified them to have the 5th hole after I drilled/tapped the other ones out. I then worked on the rear bumper and drilled out the 4 remaining holes to mount it and put that together.

I also did non-Scrambler work... put another car seat in the CJ7 and put the wheels/tires, adjusted the clutch and played with fluid levels on the customers CJ5.

I am a bit sore today... I am definitely not in "Jeep" shape!

I worked out with my Scrambler today. Or, I guess I worked out on the treadmill and the Scrambler watched. Best view in the gym.

1 piece conversion rear axle kit

Well, to make a very long story short I did the 1 piece conversion rear axle kit because the original 2 piece broke a few weeks ago. I’m just glad nobody got killed and it happened in a parking lot and not going down the road a 50mph.:eek: It appears the previous owner had the same issue at one pint and just welded it back together. Had it towed to a buddy’s transmission shop and I’m back in action! Up next is replacing the radiator and installing new shackles up front! Hope to do that this weekend! :headbang:
