Wonder goes to Rausch
« on: January 19, 2012, 01:12:50 AM »
I did rear brakes and wheel cylinders on this hog tonight so she is good to go and wont leak any more brake fluid.  Alex helped bleed, thanks!

on the short list, front CV is shot (one on loan from chip should show up) and a front ujoint should get swapped.  otherwise she is good to go.

Fun times!

See if you remember how to wheel non-buggy status.

i didnt see a fuel pump in my parts box from arie so i guess the kicking out will not be attempted to get change.


coil or fuel pump is all thats left in the fuel system to change.

o, also the rear ubolts are getting changed.  they were loose on the driverside but seized and snapped when tried to tighten.  have a set i have been saving that were made wrong for another project.  should work good.

all brakes and ujoints done and she held up pretty well!


still have to do fuel pump and i think trans has frozen water in it, it is really cranky untill it warms up a bit.

Was it weird wheeling the jeep after being able to do whatever you want in the buggy?

it was really weird in a 5 speed, open diffs, 35's, and a dana30. 

it was fun, but trying to not hit trees is sometimes annoying!


heat and Pandora was nice.  seats in the buggy are way better.

aww man, the 8.25" in this guy blew her wad tonight.


you would be amazed how far an XJ can drive in 4 low with the rear shaft vacated AND the rear diff is locked up.
