This is my new money pit. A 1982 Jeep Scrambler. I believe it has a skyjacker 4" lift and ProComp wheels and tires. So far I have replaced all brake lines, calipers, pads, wheel cylinders. I also just replaces hub seals and bearings on the pass side front. I also upgraded the headlights to H4 bulbs, and installed a suitable wiring harness for them. Next is to replace all of the steering components. The steering is sketchy at best. It looks rough, but there is very little real rust on it.

Hopefully that rocker and corner armor isn’t hiding anything or at least too much. |

My JK is my first jeep and over time I've really come to appreciate some of the older wranglers. That scrambler in particular has all sorts of awesome potential.

My first aftermarket purchase for the JK, the 67 Designs double ball mount. I'm using the spring loaded phone attachment for now, but the 2nd ball allows me to mount another phone, GPS, tablet, etc.
It's a very solid mount. The balls are metal, the clamps aluminum, and the arms carbon fiber.  Attached File |

I took my YJ out to the local offroad park this past weekend. I've taken this Jeep through about everything there is to put it through on our 500 acre ranch, but the "beginner trail" at this park was tougher than anything I'd done before. Being carbureted really hurt me on a bunch of the steep hill climbs, and I definitely need lockers. I still had a blast, though.

I don't. I hope to have a passenger next time that can get some pics. I was too busy trying not to die
ETA: And "tough" for me and an old jeep with open diffs is probably pretty easy for a lot of the rigs in here. |

I had to pick up a couple trees real quick, but didn’t have access to a truck. Weather forecast says 90% chance of rain this afternoon but I figured I’d take the gamble and pull the roof off anyway. Made it back home fine.

Me and my buddy found us a nice little fishing hole outside of town today. Unfortunately, the toughest obstacle was hopping a curb to get off the main road. My 89 YJ and his 84 CJ7.

Picked this up from a buddy of mine Sunday. We had it running and driving two years ago, but it’s been sitting since then. I got the brakes up and got it cranking earlier in the week but it’s not getting fire. I hope to get it running this weekend.
Not really sure what my plans for it are yet. I may get it running and driving and flip it or I might upgrade the brakes, add lockers and four wheel it. I might even order a new tub and restore it. It was completely gone thru twenty years ago and probably hasn’t been driven a 500 miles since then. It’s been in my buddy’s family for over 40 years. |
