Smokey needs some V8 power.

Moochie this is way too cool. Look forward to someday being able to hang with the kool kids in SO CAL.

I see you're in Florida. Maybe someday we can meet up.

Thanks for the reply, that was the main reason I asked, I was curious what the plan for reattachment was. :thumb:

It was easier to cut through them at that point and when they are reattached a sleeve will be inserted in to the tubes with some rosette welds to secure the sleeve and then welded around the tubes when they are reconnected.

Actually right now I am in Okinawa for deployment. I do miss San Diego a ton. Spent the first 8 1/2 years of my career there.

No more 3.8

Next the OEM motor mount brackets are to be removed and the new Motech LS brackets will be burned in.

Most of the demo is done now. It's going to be power washed and the paint will be touched up.

You never know when you might need some gas or a drink of plastic tasting water.

Washer fluid looks a little low.

Looks great Moochie. Can't wait to see it in person.

You're right! And I seem to have misplaced my radiator cap.

Noticed that too but I figured one thing at a time.

Thanks Mike! It could be driveable in 2 weeks.

Seriously? That's great news! You deserve some good fortune from the Jeep gods Moochie. You've had to put up with a lot of en route breakdowns in the last six months and you've done so without whining about it. Here's some :honey: towards a speedy, successful build for you.

Not vice grips. BTW how did you hook up the disconnect switch on your battery? Very interesting. Also do you have the King Coilover bolt on kit?
