Fuck I I'm leaving it like it is for now. I'll build something better when time permits.

Had her out on a new access road I found by my fishing spot. Climbed over some shit and forded some water. She did good though I really need to fix my track bar. I don't think its going to hurt anything, but the slapping around is driving me nuts.

So, are you doing it like i do? Washing the car once in Spring and once in Fall? :lol:

sooo fucking cool! What a rig!

If you see cars like this, do what i do: write your number on a piece of paper along with the words: "If you´d like to sell this car, please call XXXXXXX thank you!"

It´s often unsuccesfull, but every once in a while..... :mrgreen:

Actually I wash it all the time I'm the warmer weather. I love mud all over it, I'd just rather have mud on a clean Jeep. :lol:

I got the number of the owner left him a voicemail.


Ninja edit. Wow I just noticed the bird in that pic. :D

Rattle canned my light covers, why? They were sitting next to a can of black spray paint. :lol:

Before.....

After....

Added to need to do list.
Oil pump. (Oil pressure at idle dropping low.)
Fuel filter (Buddy suggested after hearing it start.)
Headlights (left one buried out.)
Front wheel bearings (left making noise.)

Depending on cost I may replace the oil pan wile its off.

one consideration is swamp lights mouned on a top rail for the roof. also a pair of them on the back. possibly, if you want extra means of communication, a cobra 40 channel cb radio with an antenna that has a long range. try a firestick or something to that effect. now if you want to add a little extra kick to your BUMBLE, add a second battery and possibly a second alternator. this will allow you to add other trail-necesary upgrades such as an on-board air compressor, winch, ect. also if you are interested i can email you the instructions to turn a 12 volt electric impact gun that plugs into the wall, into a trail ready one. i found it in a off road magazine.

More lights and electrical upgrades are in the plans for the future. But I have I list of shit to work on first. Post the link for the impact mod sounds cool. Though I'll probably stick with my hilti battery impact Charged by my for now small inverter.

i love having OBA cause its always there, and im a carpenter, so its nice to be able to just turn on the truck, and nail up a wall, or put air in my tires without having to put 3 quarters in a machine lol

Went out wheeling for a bit today. Good time but if ya look in the background of some of the pix you can see why good wheeling spots are becoming harder to find. Fucking assholes.

On the way home I stopped by my fishing spot and there was a big branch hanging over the road. A lot of kids including my boy play there. Well I took care of that.

Then I just hitched it up to the back of the Jeep and drug it off the road.

Aside from the trash a great day.
