Exactly what I'm going for, you get it.

Re: 97+Cherokee front clip conversion

Might be easier to fab up some lower fender extensions or now's the time to upgrade to a wrap around front bumper.

Re: Clutch time

Little tech tips for you Carl..... Invest in a set of inverted torx bits unless you KNOW the top two bell housing bolts had already been swapped out. (this one you may know already) With one of the lower bell housing to block bolts in hand, head to the hardware store and buy a couple longer bolts of...

Re: Project "La Mosca"

Heck Carl I sold Ol' Yeller Monday night, now on the quest for another XJ or possibly a WJ for a new DD.
Depending on what I find (got a better budget to work with what with the profit I made on the TJ) I may just have some more tech stuff to post :D

Re: Project "La Mosca"

Well I think I've got most of the projects wrapped up on La Mosca. Last Sunday I spent about 7-8 hours taking care of that 2-3" of rust that looked like this once the bumper end cap was removed.... http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w278/johnsxj/Terri%20Jeep%20La%20Mosca/1004150948.jpg Ended up...

The big brown truck and little white truck with the blue stripes have been making regular visits the past couple days so I was able to knock the list down some :dance: Wednesday night night while waiting for parts I pulled the rear tires to check the back brakes.

Re: Project "La Mosca"

Very cool! I've often thought about picking up a cherokee as a DD and keeping it all stock. What are you plans for this? Just fix, then maintain? Yep! I'm basically keeping this one stock other than the budget boost lift that's already in it. It stopped raining long enough for me to snap some inter...
