        I mounted the 2000 TJ fuel tank in under the bed of my J10, worked out well. All need to do is plumb the lines and run the electric for the pump.

        Breakfast amounts to one live toad, I choke that mofo down, and I am rest assured that nothing worse will happen to me for the rest of the day.

          I got the G30 trailer hitch modified, welded, painted, and installed. I got the first coat of paint on the fenders and rocker, they'll need to be wet sanded and shot again I've got orange peel. Got most of the front face cleaned up, drilled, and welded before paint. And I've got a back ache.

                What I did to my Jeep?

                Helped finish up the re-gearing. 3.54 now, from 2.87.
                New bearings, seals, slik-um in the rear axle.
                Repack all bearings in the front as well as new slik-um up front too.
                Really pulls now!
                Speedo is lots more accurate.
                Now to see what my gas footage will be.

                    Cut rotted floor out of the driver's side of '79. Was grinding old floor bondo to get to rust, but ran out of discs.

                    Cleaned up '67 timing chain parts, set the new set on the crank and cam, and ran out of time.

                        Pulled the Radiator so I could take it to the shop to have it flushed and the tanks resoldered. Also began the install of a Rhino grill. Also cleaned up and primed some rust spots.

                        Oh...I almost forgot. I also installed a new to my Son steering wheel. He is happy now...except for the fact that he can't drive his truck til I get his radiator back from the shop.

                          Ran it for a while to keep the battery up, minor tune up this coming weekend.

                          Looking to do a steering box/pump swap in October.

                            Boxed the frame from the shock mounts back and added new plates for all the body mount points.

                              Looks like we get to fork over some $$ for a new radiator. I was hoping it was just a solder joint on the top tank. Turns out we had some bad tubes as well.
