    Hello From Colorado!

    Hello all,

    My name is Kodie. I am about to start a project on my dad's 77 J10. He passed away a few months ago and since that is the truck I started driving in the mountains at 8 years old, I figured it would be an awesome way to remember him and bring some fun childhood memories of driving it!

    Current-
    350 v8
    spring over
    35s
    LSD front
    Locker in the rear

    I have a great running J20, So the motor will be coming out of that.

    Howdy, Kodie.
    Sad to hear of the loss of a loved one, but he'll live on in the Jeep!

      Hello from Colorado!

      Glad you're keeping the memory of your dad going with the J10.

        Welcome to the forums, Kodie. There are a ton of great folks here and a huge amount of great information and knowledge.

        Sad news of your father passing- but what an incredible way to keep memories of him and a tangible connection alive. Best of luck as you work on your legacy J-truck!

                    Greetings! Also from Colo. My dad was a Jeeper too. Gone in 2014. Do the J-truck justice!
                    "Jeepjake" on this site 20-years ago, did the first Ouray Invasion (stuck on Imogene pass, wrote a story about it), then subsequent Uninvasion the next year. Been working on Jeeps 50-years, have had a Jeep of one rendition or another all my adult life.
