Yeah there's a few in the junkyard maybe we will look into that but yeah thanks it was fun to do and that's what I was told is that happens a lot with the jeeps the kid he got the jeep off of killed it in a 5 to 6 foot mud hole but now that he has it it actually has life I guess the kid got a newer jeep and killed that.one not to long ago in the same hole lmao

First thing cleaned garage lol

Use a dremmel to port it.

There's a few threads lingering around this forum telling you how to port it and what tools to use.

Yeah I was looking at some last night might just let it be for now but kinda want to polish it

yeah Im going to try and clean as much as I can before I put it all back together

Looks clean?


First layer on was going to polish it but maybe soon but not now needed a few things like torque wrench lol

Looks clean for being over 220 something miles right?

Chris.. stop worrying, it's a 2 hour job w/o the paint.

I was really happy to see it was that clean on the inside going to put it back together after one last layer of paint but I know when I got the. car I babbied it I do all my oil changes everytime it needs it sometimes early and I have replaced almost all the sensor that was the big problems I would get right when I hit about 217 they started going out so little by little I have replaced all bad parts after this I can fix my suspension my front right strut is cashed so I have one from a 97 gtp I parted going to use that until I get another job to.get all new and maybe lower it a little

Tape looks cool on there lol
