You'll just hear a lot of whining from us. Mostly me.

Yeah, wrastling just aint my thang....I'll let you guys have your fun without my smart alecky comments

I haven't watched wrestling in years. I am going to go start at page one and get caught up

Lincoln Lawyer was pretty damn good.

they are wrestling in my area tonight...Hampton, VA. man! i should have bought tickets...but i have the best seat in the house.....my house! lol

but man....the Cena-Machine just keeps rolling huh? why? why doesn't this dude lose?

Damn writers

no doubt. Electrical problems are a PITA, even in less complicated situations. Every thought about switching to a 1 wire alt?

Yeah, was on Jegs and JC Whitney yesterday looking at 1 wire setups...may go that direction soon. Not to mention the alternator is now the oldest part on the jeep at about 6 years old, yeah its a 77 alright

I was going to suggest pulling a fuse per day until the battery stopped draining. Then, at that point you could narrow down the circuit.

Volt. Reg external on the Jeep?

yeah, $20 and done in 15 minutes. Huge relief, as I didn't want to start picking and pulling.

Ding ding, we have a winner!!!! Faulty voltage regulator it is....

Ugh.....the Jeeps battery drains over night every time I charge it. Anyone know a faster, more efficient way of narrowing down the electrical culprit other than turning everything off and using a 12v test light for every freakin' single circuit? Its hot out and that going to take forever tomorrow...

definitely slick looking, but with a stock motor? Hahahahahaha!

I love the JK's TOO! I was actually thinking about buying a JKU myself! I want the fastback hard top from Wild BOAR! That, with a nice TerraFlex 6" kit with Walker Evans 17" beadlocks and 40" Pitbull Rockers! Ohh yea, and the COD off-road SRT Hemi swap... hahahahahah! Did I mention the RockJock axels!? About 70k later.....

Yeah, you've rattled off some serious stuff there. That would certainly be nasty!

,

not that I think it's ugly, it just has a weird mix of old school and new school. Just looks like it was patched together. Maybe if you tighten up the gaps and clean it up a little I'd have a different opinion,,,,,,,,,,,,

This is more of the direction id like to go. Saw this on in VA a few months ago.

,

really not a fan of that...thing.

Looks like the byproduct of a Hummer getting drunk one night and picked up a Wrangler at the gas station.,,,,,,,,

Really? I am in love with this look!! It will be built, oh, it will be built!

I bet thats a fun little package with 33's. What gearing you running?

I'm contemplating a Solid axel Swap with my X after it's not my daily anymore. I'm looking for a Nissan Frontier to fill that void. A couple of guys have SAS'd the 2nd gen Xterra using a bunch of JK Rubicon bits.

4.10's which is why I'd like to jump up to 35's. Runs a little high (RPM wise) when in 3rd (the final gear).

My next project is a 4 door Wrangler JK. I am in love and want to replicate something like this:

I was kidding. : P That motor is perfectly suited for a Jeep with 39's, just not much else unless it's in a boat!

Boat Anchor! : P A 400 SBC would have been a better choice. : P How'd you like the Davis HEI? Thank GM for it! hahahahaZ!

Got ya....yeah, that'd be nice!

The 39's were on the old jeep. This one has 33's now and will be getting a new set of 35's shortly. And then that's it height wise for this one.

Love it. That's always been my main gripe with Jeeps -- the lack of torque. That 6.6L should take care of that.

Yeah, its a 401 out of '71 Wagoneer with roughly 335hp @5000 and 435 ftlb @3400

Not really sure if H8R was kidding or just didnt really know what he was looking at...I guess we'll find out soon

That's a cute little motor.

Yeah, those darn little 6.6 liter motors....

Bam!!!!

I say Procomp or BDS now, but I (the Jeep) was sponsored by Skyjacker in the pics above ....Oh well, that was a lifetime ago!

I'm thinking about upgrading my suspension on my Ram 1500 do u know anything about Rancho?

I, personally, am not a fan of Rancho. I would go BDS or Procomp.

Finally tracked down some pics of my old Jeep online before it went into "show mode" (PS2, hardtop, new paint etc) -

I'll smoke ya

love the house! And now I dont feel like a creeper for keeping pics of cars that I dont have anymore haha.

That's my folks house back in 2001, not mine, but thanks.....yeah, I have pics of every vehicle I've owned. When you're like us, its okay!

Well, since we're reminiscing, here is my 2000 Wrangler back in 2001.

It was a 2000 Wrangler Sport with an 8" Skyjacker Longarm Lift, 2" coil spacers (10" lift total) 39" Swamper SX's, Dana 44 Axles, 4.88 gears, Detroit Lockers, PS2 with a flip down monitor on the hard top, soft and hard top/doors and used to have a Warn 8274 winch!

Started out as a stock (obviously) black on black Wrangler and then grew to this and was painted Honda blue electron pearl

This thing was my BABY, but sold it in 2003 to buy my first house....oops!

There are pictures of a picture, so they're not the best clarity...

Nasty bro!! Dig that thing!

My sister just wrecked my 335i today. Looks like I'm going to total it. Not a happy camper right now. I'm driving around in my 1993 740iL that is in the middle of being gutted. Dont even have the exhaust back on yet, I ordered an exhaust yesterday and pulled off the stock exhaust today so all I have to do is bolt on the new one when it arrives. Now I'm driving around like one of those dooshes that hang out at gas station parking lots: loud *** exhaust, Taco Bell wrappers on the floor, a muffler attached with coat hangers and tape...all I need is a wing and spray paint the hood, and I'll be ready to pick up some hunnies at Sheetz!

Dude, I feel your pain!!! Sucks! I assume your sis is alright?

Just listed the CJ for sale (just a feeler to see what kind of nibbles I can get). I have an entire build sheet done on a 4 dr Wrangler (KJ) that I'd like to build next. I just can't stop myself! What is wrong with me (all of us)?
