What was done to your rig this week?

[jal]

Hot head headliner installed and eddie’s Cb antenna mount done

 

[TrailHunter]

Big upgrade today... New Shocks.

 

[Chain Reaction]

Upgraded the old ignition system to a D.U.I. distributor and Live Wires. Up next is replace the externally regulated alternator with a Delco one wire. After that, Reinstall the leaf spring wedges, measure and order a double cardan drive shaft from Woods. When all that's done, I will reorganize the wires.

That’s a clean engine bay! Please tell me it’s in a Wagoneer or FSJ Cherokee.

PS- If you haven’t addressed the sock in the fuel tank, you’ll want to do so before it collapses on itself and blocks the fuel pickup

It's a 75 CJ-5. I haven't messed with the gas tank yet, but I have plans to attack that very soon. New sock, sending unit, filler hoses ect.

Today I replaced the old 39 Amp externally regulated alternator with a Delco Si10 rated at 81 Amps. Not a lot but more than I need. The new alternator and DUI distributor eliminated tons of wires and lights don't flicker.

Replaced the defroster duct. The original was in good shape but the hose wouldn't stay attached. I also replaced the cigar lighter/power port.

Just got done replacing the front brakes. That was an aggravating task. I'm thinkig a power disk brake conversion would be nice.

 

[WJCO]

Cabin air filter. Hard to believe it's this dirty on a Jeep with 15k that hasn't ever left pavement.

 

[GP NOIR]

Had the starter motor replaced on SWAMBO's GC.

I'm in the wrong business. Labor was $110/hr! I've never made that much as an aviation tech!

The old duct looks like it was made from a goat skin!

Great now I don't feel prepared. Those tool bags look exactly like my old bags. Now if and when I wear bags, I have to walk like a thug with cuffs on trying to hold his pants up. My old ass must have fell off over the years. Are you staying at the Holiday Inn?

Occidental Nylons with a rear leather Nail pouch… My favorite bags. Unfortunately I don’t wear them everyday like I used too.

Yeah, we’ll be there! See ya tomorrow evening.
