Baystate Jeepers

Can I get some help putting on some more skids before Rausch Creek? I have tried but things aren't lining up right and after attempting, removing, attempting and removing several times I just can't get it done. I feel like such a girly girl to have to ask. I'll bring homemade snacks!!

You are always welcome to use my garage and I'd be glad to give you a hand.
For weekend days the following are doable for me.
- 7/24
- 8/14

That's great, thanks. 8/14 works. Just give a shout if your plans change.

Will do.
I put you on the calendar so I don't forget.

As always, others are welcome to come and help or bring their projects here to work on.

Ill check, might be able to come up, not sure how helpful but would be willing to lend a hand for whatever is needed.

More skids ----- I only got one ! FjR68

You're a Brat!

Don't forget, you may want to do diff fluids when you do the diff skids, especially noting the mileage of the jeep without a diff service. Not sure which axles you have, but look into Lube Lockers, they make removal and re-installation of the diff covers a breeze the next time you need to service the diffs.

Kurt, can we add this to the day? Thanks for reminding me, Dan, I have to get gaskets. Is that what you mean by lube lockers?

Yep, reusable gaskets. About $25.00 each.

It's like Christmas with all this buying. I just bought longer cables for my bike so I can put the ape hangers on.

No problem. Just be sure to have enough diff oil to do the refill(s).


BTW - Are we doing diff guard/skids/covers or something else?
What kind of diff skid? If it's an add on skid do you need longer bolts?

Ape hangers ? You mean Chimp hangers . Made some blocks for Monas pedals :0 . FjR68

The diff skids are Rugged Ridge, just add-ons, they came with bolts. I realize now I should have gotten new covers, oh well. I have a gas tank and evap skid also. I'll pick up some oil.

Nice, Frank!!! Just need a booster seat now.

Sounds like we'll have a busy day with all the skids.

Which gas tank skid did you get? Is it the type that goes over the existing skid or does it replace the existing skid?
