What did you do to your TJ today?

[D's Jeep Wrld]

Thanks man. Having it here certainly hasn't sunk in yet. I plan to get it out today to see what the LS2 is like.

Let's us know it goes&feels like

It looks like you are building up something very nice and purposeful. @SkylinesSuck will have a new drag racing challenger.

Still have my TJ

Thank you,But Yes sir that's the plan I'd like to kick out a happy 450+ Rwhp No boring v8s cause those are too commom.....Jk @Apparition @NashvilleTJ (stirring up the pot here )

Edit,Pressed the post button on accident
The rest of what I was gonna say:
But id like to race another jeep of similar power someday ! I can whoop "modded" Tjs&Xjs which gets a bit boring and alot of em where im at aren't even properly built (big tires unappropriate gearing,stuff of that nature,lots of "mall crawlers" where im at )

Ford 9"/Triangulated Mid arm prep:
yOu nEeD a 1.25 bOdY LifT fOr yOuR jeEep fOr yOuR tUmMee tUk
....that's cute:
I introduce THA TREE INCH HOMEDEPOO SPECIAL

Jokes aside I'm doing this to give myself space to cut the spring perches

One side was somewhat accessible but the other....not so much

And ofcourse I took out the fuel tank! I kinda am thinking of doing a bigger tank from GR and doing outboarded shocks but dayum....I wasn't even supposed to be doing a triangulated mid arm setup to begin with this was only supposed to be a ford 9" axle swap dude so idk.....That's why this project is called "Project snowball"

This little motorcycle jack was the one of the best cheap Facebook marketplace finds ever

Finally, was able to finish up my starter replacement this morning. My brother-in-law was in town so kept getting interrupted with family time. Not complaining. Great visit with family is always cherished. Anyway, realized why that one bolt was so hard to break. The bolts must have been transposed the last time the starter was replaced. Once I switched them, things fit perfectly. Also added some length to the ground so that there would be more room the next time it needs replacing. Also replaced the factory clip since it was a little wiggly for my taste. Nothing exciting, but nice to spend some time under the Jeep.

Beach lights

Gater lights

Well, shit. Where were you guys when I bought the switch I'm gonna use with these? I would have TOTALLY run with "Gator lites", and 'Beach lites" isn't a bad idea either! Oh well, another lost opportunity...

 

[Zorba]

Swapped out my regular bulb in the third brake light for an LED…. Very simple plug-in play…. And still looks factory.
Seems to be a lot brighter ( which is what I need because of stupid drivers)

Two suggestions:

1) Because I'm anal and already had it, I put some shiny foil tape above and below the two openings in the reflector with the idea of maybe reflecting back some of the light that otherwise would be lost.

2) I got one of those blinky $10 modules:

My mother ran over a 'gator once, driving home to the village of Pierre Part in South Louisiana. She told one of her neighbors about it and said, "I guess that makes me a real Cajun now."

The neighbor asked, "Did you put it in your trunk and take it home to make meat?"

Mama said, "No."

"Den you ain't a real Cajun yet, cher!"

I might try that foil idea… I’ll have to raid the pantry.
The flashing light is illegal here in New Zealand unless it comes factory ……. Or you’re in a disco club lol

Does it really? Show @John Cooper your tramp stamp.

Thanks, it's basically stock and first I'm tidying things up/fixing what needs fixing and then i'll get into the modification side of things.

 

[chili_pepper]

Was trying to figure out the hood ornament...until I realized it wasn't...

 

[Pantera99]

Oil change, new filter, downstream NTK O2 sensors installed. Now my son says the Titan's battery is going dead, it never ends I tell ya?!! Supposed to be a holiday weekend?!!

 

[noodles93]

Hopefully the last time into these drums... bleeder screw was shot so I swapped in a wheel cylinder just because. Also used the NAPA adjuster kit and it was a great tight fit. The adjuster cable was just a little longer on the other set which is why it never contacted the wheel.

What do you guys think? No tire carrier = better?

I like Jeeps better without a spare on the back.

Feels like its just missing something. I like the spare on the back, its iconic.

 

[speeding_infraction]

I do like the clean look but all the holes in the tailgate are bothering me. Plus, I'd need to either sell my current bumper and put on a different one, or cut the bracketry off for the tire mount. also, the 35" tire takes up a lot of space in the back.
