thanks man would of been done sooner but i bought my mustang and put a 347 in it so that drained alot of cash right there by this time next year if i dont get distracted with a tow rig this jeep will probably have either a hopped up straight six or 4bt and be decked to the moon my date just moved closer gunna try for the 8th i have a charity ride to go to

VTJeep

all of that sounds pretty awesome. what would you do to the I6? how bout some pics of the mustang? i doubt I'm alone when i say that id like to see some..

Blackbettyjr

well if i keep the I6 turbos coming soon thinking a HX35 non wastegated or "seperate wastgated" turbo. but ill do the heads headers intake programmer maybe eventually stroke it up to a 5.0 but thats all if i keep it here some pics of ol molly (the stang)





if ya cant tell i might destroy tires (the yellow rims are burnout rims)

well back to the jeep i got my parts from summit and sportsman
*jerry cans
*fuel pump
*fuel pressure regulator
this should be enough to drive it down the road





This is my rough idea for the "fuel cell" and seam sealer all the inner seams dont want water getting up behind the wheel well covers






then i started fab on the rear wheel well covers





heres a little sneak peak of what she'll look like with everything in place



started to do the inner wells with sealer and the underside guys this is not panel bond or any of that as backwards s*** its all for water and rust prevention thats all nothing structural and started painting the cage have a jeep meet to hit in about a week so its not all finished but enough to show

Blackbettyjr

well here we are now I'm pushing hard as possible to hit the charity event on the 7th me and my buddys slammed this thing out this weekend and we are coming straight down to the wire

i finally got the tail lights mounted













shaved the filler door looks like crap in a huge rush ill go back over it after the charity event





got the rear bumper built very simple but very sturdy i dont think you could buy a more solid bumper than this 6"x2"x.25"-.375" C channel 3.5"x3.5" square stock for the middle 3x3 square stock for the 2 outside ones .25 flat stock for the mounts








threw the rack and spare tire up top



Now onto the tank very proud of this little design i came up with 3 Jerry cans linked together to form one tank
heres the 2 holes for the return and pull



threaded in bronze fittings little gas sealer



welded in black pipe 3 ways





heres the brackets for the strap ill put up full pictures when its completly put together and running



heres my fuel pump summit inline with a regulator pushes 30-65psi





Definetly every jeep needs this sticker







i'll put up more pics of the tank and all the plumming if anyone wants to know more ill do a write up eventually

papaj

Blackbettyjr

thanks for following yall throwing the rear tires on and bumper on tomorrow im gunna make it to the meet!!

Blackbettyjr

Well I got it ready in time for the jeep meet!





ran with a bunch of wranglers and stockers at the meet definetly the youngest guy there and most modified but hell it was for charity

Blackbettyjr

since i cant leave anything alone this week i started tackling some more mods well at least started on them started out changing up the 4x4 lever took my stock shifter outa the mustang and chopped the bottom off welded er on and threw a b&m t handle on her thing turned out alright





then i started on the ac to air compressor mod had to call up a friend for an old school SANDEN compressor just makes it easier on the oiling and piping in due to the fact of treaded inlet and outlet just swapped compressors 97 sanden swapped for a 93 sanden.



in the process of cleaning up the engine bay right now to make some more room for the turbo msd box and all the other goodies

but just a little thing about wisconsin
day of the jeep meet


3 days after...


then my buddy in his 95 wrangler tries to do a wheelie on brand new 33's with 4:10's no **** tried to do a wheelie and pop bye bye ring and pinion. luckily we had an 88 to throw in

Blackbettyjr

Well no progress lately besides i blew up one of the poly bushings in my short arms so im saying screw it and getting myself a set of long arms. starting the rear end stretch soon and just started building a turbo manifold today for the old straight six once i have a prototype i may sell them

Blackbettyjr

My H1C for the rig looks rough ik but she'll clean up zero shaft play good fins and only paid $180 for it ordered my wastegate,bov, flanges and my tubing last night hopefully have enough to completly build my manifold
