Made it out to the woods on a bit of a shake down trip this weekend. Camped off the little Naches and ran around some of the roads up there and over by Bumping Lake, still a lot of snow. A couple of the places I wanted to get into were blocked with snow so I'm gonna have to make another trip...

Thanks, the goal was to get everything as low to the roof as possible. Still not sure if the light setup is going to work to my liking. I used bar clamps to attach to the rack , with the tube being curved and the direction I have the clamps pointed the middle spot lights are angled out a...

Been a busy week so far, but I've got a bit more done. I got the rack all cleaned up, primed and paint. Before I installed it put some hard 1/4" thick foam weather strip on the bottom of the flat bar rails so there will be a little protection between the rack and body. Still need to scrounge...

Thanks, it's been a slow process but its coming along.

At the shop working on it right now. Got the rack painted, installed and threw some lights on. Working on bumper stuff now, just got the radiator support welded up It's starting to come together!

The WJ is one step closer to being ready for some trips. Got the new mounting for the roof basket done, just need to paint it and bolt it back on. In the evenings this week I want to get the fenders cut and get started on the bumper. Before After Maybe if I get this thing ready in the next...

Finally got the WJ out to the farm for some metal work list includes remount roof rack, trim fenders, front bumper w/ high clearance rad. Support, rear bumper w/ tire swing out and some rocker protection. Decided to start with the roof basket, goal for this was to get it lower to the roof and...

Cb install time! I'm currently reading the material to get my ham license, but I probably won't have it and a radio for a while so in the meantime I thought I would install the ch I had on the shelf. Also once I get my Ham i would then be cover with 2 types of trail comms since i know people...

Hey Look! I finally got a member number... I kind of forgot I never signed up but figured I've hung around long enough I might as well sign up and give some money to the cause

It's alive!!! Finally got it back together, once all the plumbing was done I got the fluids in it, it fired up and ran smooth. Only thing I ran into was fitment of the hood latch. The radiator has a trans cooler built in (stock did too) but mine also had an auxiliary cooler plumbed in series...

That's kind of how I feel about it. Get a mid range handheld and it will probably do everything I would ever want. I still know a lot of people that run CB but seems like the OB crowd is moving towards Ham. I really only want to have trail comms for when I'm out with a group so if I get my...

I just now started reading the material for the ham test so I know about zero when it comes to these radios. I just saw it was 5 of them for $100 so i thought i would ask. Once I get my license I don't see myself getting too deep in the rabbit hole that is ham radio so something middle of the...

Got a lot done in the garage today, just not on the jeep unfortunately... I was getting tired of the mess I had going so I cleaned a lot. Also made room for a new work bench I got and hung a parts cabinet on the wall. I did get the trans cooler plumbed and the radiator hoses on, but then got...

What parts are you referring to? There is no previous post quoted in your reply to see what you're asking about.

@JL Lou, are you running the Baofeng handheld radio? If so what model and how do you like it? Saw these and didn't know how good they are or why you would need 5, but they are cheap... https://sellout.woot.com/offers/baofeng-uv-5r-two-way-radio-5-pack-15?ref=w_cnt_lnd_cat_elec_1_5

Looks like a pretty nice tool roll, a little on the pricey side for me until my old bag wears out but I do like it.

Paint job looks good. Did you ever find any groups out there to explore with or at least get some info from for places to check out?

Progress! Kind of... still not all the way back together but closer! So I went ahead and ordered the Derale 18" fan and a stock fan clutch to install after my talk with @JimBill. It fit like a glove and no need to modify the fan shroud. I'll run this setup for a while and if all goes well...

Man, that is a big question to ask! The PNW is great because there is so much to see and do but it really depends on your time frame, planned route and what you are into for sight seeing. If you take 101 up the coast from nor. Cal through Or and Wa there is tons of small towns and tourist...

I have been wanting to make it out to Bombing Range to fill up a growler so if I do I'll let you know. We can make the hand off and have a social distance beer!
