The Driveway Jeep...

Out with the old stuff.. 

Had to do some work on this poor passenger fender. Still needs some work in the pretty department. 

One with the new. Nothing is bolted down. Had to raise the grille a little bit with some flat washers to raise it up the fenders a little bit. Used a portable power jack to get the passenger fender out enough and a BFH. It's not pretty, but the poor Jeep ain't going to be that pretty anyways. Once the bumper is bolted down, I'll have a good 1/8" between the fenders and the bumper. 

Didn't get much done this weekend do to the 16-degree weather we had here this weekend. I did get the belts all aligned pretty well but still need to add a few spacers here and there. Messed up and have to take the driver's side header back off so I can pound the dipstick tube in. Thought I could get it with the header on but it's not going to work that way. 

Still got a pile of stuff that needs to go on, but it is getting closer to the first fire up. 

And I should have painted that master cylinder as it's starting to look like a rusty ole master cylinder. Still might take it off and throw some paint on it. I haven't bled the brakes anyways. "Sigh" 

Also going to have to figure out what to do with the original oil pressure sending unit. It's too big to fit behind the 3G alternator. 

Thank you, Matt, I am also getting pretty attached to the old half worn out girl. Kind of reminds me of the trucks I drive at work. LOL..!! 

I've also been looking at a pair of Curries to stick under the front and rear end. I have a feeling that the worn-out stockers aren't going to handle my heavy foot. 

Mocked up the fuel system for the EFI. 

Wiring is next...
