well, i'll consider it a "heritage" piece then! maybe pass it along to someone else in a few years. or when the kj's have a resurgence as an off road powerhouse it'll be worth a lot of money :-)r :ROTFL: :JEEPIN:

Day 1 of 2.... Got my boilers steel gas tank skid installed, the rear ome springs and rancho shocks installed, and most of the "frame" and other parts painted with por15. Front "shocks/struts/coilovers" whatever you want to call them are disassembled and ready to go to the shop tomorrow to get reassembled with the new shocks and springs. ImageImage

Oh! And had alot of fun doing the pinch weld. Besides some plastidip and a few holes drilled here or there, it was my first "its not your jeep till you drill a hole in it" type moment... Its not your jeep till you beat the snot of part of it with a sledgehammer. .:jeepin:.
