Justin, Would love to see your 72! I have a 68 frame that has the CV swap and a Lincoln Navigator 9.75 rear axle. I like working on my 7.3 and Porsches but I wish I was working on the bumpside the most.

 

Thanks for the invite!
I will try to make it!
what is the time frame?

 

Old timers setting in!!!

 

Sorry for the thread drift Woody. That is the wife's birthday weekend so list us as doubtful.


I may have been a couple years premature. We bought the FJ nearly new with 21k miles. Hell she won't even let me smoke in it yet.

We should have another thread on a rock crawl event. We were at Katemcy(sp) last fall with my son's Jeepchevy.

 

As of right now, Ted and I will be rebuilding the front suspensions on our trucks and that's all. Starts around 8ish and ends when we're done. It's not very exciting, just a mini tech day. You had mentioned to me about doing some work on your Cherokee, and that would be a good time to get it done.

 

LOL, no worries

Yeah, I wanna come by in the bump. We'll see what's going on next weekend.

 

Woody, I appreciate that a lot! My cherokee needs some suspension help UGH!
I have to work next Sat, but not sure how late yet.
I will head to your home after work

 

Scratch the mini meet for me. Wife has scheduled training for her work that Saturday so I'll be home with the kids.

 

Guys, sorry I won't be able to make it. Got a charity event to be at with my Scottish clan. Bummer. Y'all have fun! Be safe!

No pics, but there sure was a lot, and I mean a lot, of wrench turning going on. Woody and I replaced everything up front as far as suspension goes. I went one step further and replaced my front coil springs as well. When I returned to Woody's shop around 10:30 or so Sunday morning, we noticed the toe in on my truck was pretty bad. So we set to adjusting the toe in. When I took it to have a front end alignment the toe in was .24 on one and .23 on the other. Not to bad for just using your eye to align.

 

I'll be picking my truck up from getting an alignment today. I could tell driving it to the alignment shop, it drove better. Can't wait to get it back!
Thanks Christof for letting us borrow your tools!

 

After driving mine Woody, momma is gonna be a very happy camper driving that rig. Thanks to Christof as well. We couldn't have done this without your tools.
