[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 429386, member: 18789"] Thanks! I wish it were still pristine like it was when I bought it, but it is what it is. It's still a very nice, 82K mile Jeep with nearly 30 years (28) under its belt. Hard to complain much about that. I really am finally getting close to "done", or at least done enough that it's not constantly in the garage being all taken apart. I would definitely agree that having to do a quick clutch replacement isn't ideal if you can't take the time to clean it all up while in there. Definitely also agree that wheeling a daily driver is just not smart for so many reasons. The best thing I ever did was buy my Ford Ranger, (and now Nissan Frontier instead). Dailying the YJ was bad in the summer, and it overall just made me like the Jeep less and less, and I wasn't even wheeling it back then. But this time, I'll finally get to enjoy it because I'm only going to drive it at enjoyable times. Nights, cool days, etc. At this point, I don't have a ton left: [LIST] [*]Brake Booster and Master cylinder swap (going back to stock single diaphragm) [*]Sourced D30 & TJ Dana 44, regeared to 4.88 with truetracs [*]New brakes and rewelded knuckles [*]New steering [*]Carpet Kit [*]Seat Covers [*]Stereo (Rockford Fosgate 5 channel amp; two dash speakers, two roll bar pods, one sub) [*]switch panel [*]install stereo tuffy console [*]Install a CB [/LIST] Really that's about it. The only thing keeping me from actually driving it, is the current big project I've got going with the transmission, and the steering/brakes. Once I swap those, it is good to go for sure. The axles I'm getting done by my buddy in Arizona at the end of May, so things are going to finally start back up imminently. Once I return from AZ, the axles will be installed, new steering and brakes installed onto them, and it'll roll. [/QUOTE]
