You could always trade your JT for an MJ! That's if you don't mind going back about 30 years. lol. I can fit my Gazelle 6 gazebo in the bed of mine. Both are 73" long ... and it's tight. I also have a 4 side gazebo. It's a Wild Land but it's the same as a Gazelle. It fits side to...
I was out "exploring" yesterday. I had hoped to make an ice crossing to an island but the sight of open water put a stop to that. The highlight of the trip (sort of) was parking next to another 2 door. My LJ is on the right. I don't know how the Willys driver kept his vehicle so clean...
I wish I could say that about my 1990 XJ 4 dr. Laredo. I bought it new and really liked it for the first 5 years. It developed some serious ABS problems and the final bill for the repairs was almost 10% of what I paid for it. :frowning: When I got it I had no idea it would be the last of...
Very nice. I have a similar set up. My XJ is a 1989 from the RENIX era. A lot of guys shy away from them but I've had good luck with this one and my 1988 MJ.
Just realized I hadn't posted my LJ in this thread after I painted it. I haven't camped with it and the above trailer yet but at least they've hit the road together.
I have a basic round point shovel with a jagged edge and hardware store Yardworks axe attached to the utility box of my trailer. The axe is nicely balanced and works surprisingly well for a cheapy. I also carry a Fiskars X7 hatchet in the box. Both are cable locked to the box so they don't...
I sandblast a fair number of things either in my cabinet in the garage or in my outdoor “containment cabinet” :blush: which is a spray shelter. It works but is far from ideal. Iv'e blasted items that were powder coated and it definitely takes more time and effort.
I agree that poorly done...
I've powder coated items that I haven't been happy with. I'm learning. :confused: I was able to re-bake them, wipe most of the coating off and redo them. These have been small items though ... NOTHING close to the size of roll bars, bumpers, etc.
I'd ask a powder coating shop how...
I managed to "warm up" the windshield washer fluid on an MGB I drove back in the 90s. I removed the delivery hose line from the pump and replaced it with one that was a few feet longer. I rerouted the hose and coiled it around the upper rad hose on it's way to the washer jets. The fluid in...
Back in about 1970 my Brother and I cut the roof off of a Mini and welded it to the top of his Econoline van. I now wish we had tried a bit harder to find a wrecked Studebaker. :blush:
It's been done by quite a few guys. The 7' bed makes them very long overall. The 6' bed (like mine) is good when made into a 4 dr.. Some cut the bed down to about 5' which makes them visually good but has its drawbacks. Here is a good build that shows the steps ... and there's a LOT of...
I also have a 1988 Comanche Eliminator that I've started to use a bit more for camping. It's pretty much stock but I'll be putting a 2" lift on it this winter and increasing the tires to 31x10.5x15 (same as the XJ). It's currently a 2WD so it will have limited use but should be fine for some...
