    • Went to VT.



      Got stuck in the river




      After seeing that I have the turning radius of a tri-axle dump truck and a leaking PS line some upgrades are in the works.
      Other than that it worked fine and made an ok log skidder.



      Behind me here is what looks like a wash out with some boulders, should have grabbed a pic. Looks like it would be a very good trail, I would have gone down it but my fenders aren't done and I didn't want to cut up my tires any more than I had at this point

        • Doesn't look like a bad place to be this time of year

          97 TJ that I think is pretty neat.

          • It's a really nice piece of property. They'll be some invites when we go up again next year, or maybe even next month.

            • Maybe I'm missing something, but how are you stuck there? Looks flat...

              Jeep looks pretty awesome tho. Very nice build.

              • Can't see it but I had all 4 locked, just dug 4 holes and I think the rear was slightly high centered because there was a lot of sliver powdercoat left on a large rock. Also it's all round river rock covered in brown algae so slippery as hell, I didn't expect that to happen. It drops down about 2/2.5ft right there, only needed to pull it about 6in forward and it popped right out.



                If anyone sees a blue XJ like mine I am in need of a front clip, hood, fenders grill. At least the fenders so I can start over on the clearancing for tires since a few too many hands have been in there before me. Hood is a little fucked up since I was driving (slow enough I thiught) with only the 2nd latch holding it down which aparently doesn't work past 40 or so and it cam up. Bent a few things.

                • This shit better sound good.



                  $15 a roll at Home Depot, basically Dynamat.



                  Gotta pull the headliner out soon and do the roof, I've heard that will make a major sound difference.


                  Some may remember this bumper, it's been passed around the New England XJ crowd for years now. Its a whore so it will be going on a friends XJ in A few weeks and I'll be making my own.

                          • Hahah ya I've heard that. Pretty solid, minus the hitch and junk catcher support thing for the tire mount. A bit scary.

Some days it doesn't bother me but others my heart races like a greyhound from the Vet after the owners realize that it cant race anymore and needs to die. Fuck that, find me some owner with big tits and I'll be cute and slow the rest of my life.
