Plastics funny to paint, I’ve done a lot of it on my build. You definitely have to do light coats and when you’re done don’t even look at for a week. I used Rust-Oleum on most of my plastic and I think the can said 5-7 days cure time. My dash pad turned out awesome, can squeeze it and no...

Paint

That was a nice rip on the board, been too long. I did buy that stock rear spring kit, got one spring down to the main eye bolt today and that sucker is SEIZED! The bolt and bushing sleeve have become one. Got the nut off and that’s it. Couldn’t move it an iota with a 3 lb hammer. Couldn’t budge...

Put my paint order in a month ago and got stiffed again today. My ex lives in Edmonton, 800ish miles away and I’m getting her to look for me. Chances are in a city of 1.5 million people she might have better luck than me in this sleepy little blink-and-ya-miss-it dump of 4,000 I live in. So...

I cut up a skinnier leather belt and made my own. Total cost: $0.00

I get to use one of my favorite old sayings again: Just because a thing CAN be done doesn’t mean it SHOULD be done. But I still like it sorta

I was talking clutch stuff with a fellow YJer today. I replaced my master/slave set up a couple of months ago and have had zero issues, prefilled unit. Buddy I was talking to had ordered his from Rock Auto and the first two failed. Third time was the charm. He’s talked to others that had the...

Been soaking them plus body mount bolts and leaf spring stuff in PB Blaster and SeaFoam for the last week. Passenger side came out easy but drivers wouldn’t move and after breaking a body mount bolt on my first try I don’t want that happening again. Fingers crossed

So close on the paint, gotta touch up my touch ups on the sides. Was a little light on the paint in a couple spots and hit em again with my last can that was almost empty. But the dregs weren’t a flat finish anymore so one more coat on the sides of I ever get more paint. What I should have got...

After closer inspection, the one under the grill looks like spaghetti and the others aren’t too bad, couple little cracks here and there. I’m a plumber, I know how to make gaskets. I’ll make one body bushing

And for today’s dose of humility I’m reading the instructions for my 1 1/4” body lift that will be delivered Tuesday and it mentions replacing the stock body bushings if they are cracked or deteriorated. (I may have mentioned I have no idea what I’m doing) I’d noticed the condition of the body...

Convert to two wheel drive and slam ‘er to the ground. 13” 100 spoke wire wheels, paint it brite white and leopard skin interior. Or put your own personal touch on it. What do YOU want to do?

BE PATIENT! I know Owen Sound is b bit off the beaten path but have you tried Kijiji etc? There’s gotta be somebody within 200 miles with a trailer that’d give you a few bucks for it

Got a couple hours to kill this morning sitting round the house. The time I wasted last night on that stupid carped experiment I was REALLY gonna spend on the soundbar. I’ve chopped pretty neat bigger holes for the 6 3/4” Fosgates (no blood for a change, plumbers with tin snips...) and made...

Good lookin ride! And a whole lotta bling, and is there a story on the War Wagon decal? I just know what ever I put on the side of my hood after my build is gonna kill. Either in a good way or a very very bad way

After doing the roll bars with Krylon “Hammered-Look” black, and thinking it sorta matches the tube bumpers I’m waiting for and that I was already gonna paint those godawful copper coloured stock rims with it anyway, I decided to go all in and paint all the soft top rails and windshield wipers...

Meet me 1/2 way I’ll take it off your hands for free lol

Rattle rattle...

Yeah the new leafs add 1 1/2”, Rubicon Express only ordered 2 so far. But seeing how I’m so sacked it’s gonna feel like 4”! Finally found some at a decent price, hopefully not waiting too long for another pair. Apparently I cleaned western Canada out of spray bomb Krylon now I gotta wait at...
