When you first got your jeep whats the first thing you done to it??


I guess I will go first. I started stripping the inside and figuring what Im cutting on the outside. So when I start welding the roll cage I can go through and weld as much as I can.

 

Sanded and bed lined the exterior made a winch bumper !

 

valve cover gasket and then cut fenders all before I even drove it more than from my drive way to my garage

 

replaced all fluids, new ignition parts, higher voltage coil, cowl intake, removed fenders and header panel, took entire interior to bedline and shampoo the hell out of the carpet

 

washed it, took the ugly side moldings off. then put a new head on it cause i bought it with the cracked 0331 head, threw a older head on it and runs perfect now

 

pulled the trans out, replaced the clutch and slave.

 

Drive it home! Haha

 

First thing I did was change the fuel filter, air filter, oil, oil filter, dist. cap and rotor, plugs and wires, tranny filter and fluid, TC fluid and diff fluids. Just basic maintenance. And grease everything. Next was brakes.

 

everything all at once. took about 5 months

 

Are we talking repairs or mods here?
First thing I repaired was (haven't had her for no more than an hour) I replaced the front drive shaft. There was a nasty cluncking coming from the front. Guess it was her way of saying "yyyyeeeaaahh..... love me." lmfao
As far as mods goes it was my APN header.
Had her for 2 years and with time, money, and blood I've almost got the repair list done. But it goes without saying I DO upgrade if a part craps out and there is an upgrade available.
Got started on the creature comforts list today.... Putco headlight harness upgrade has been ordered and is on its way.

 

PCV valve, new head unit, next week I start workin in the JCR DIY front bumper

 

The GPS for when I got pulled over for doing 55 in a 45 with a broken speedo

 

Took off the Mud flaps, Replaced all the fluids, Plugs, Cap, Rotor, Added Swaybar Disconnects

 

Blow the dust off of it. After that, see my build.

 

Bought the jeep, 2wd never started driving it till after it was 4wd. Than ever sence I been dumping money into her, gotta love xjs thought
