OMFG I don't know if I should even take this question seriously.
Oh btw newbie :flipoff2:

Thanx for the greeting:rainbow: :flipoff2:

Now anyone want to tell me what kind of rims those are??

Toilet Paper? Oh, I see. No, it's a roll of paper towels. :rolleyes:

Hey newbie!

AR767 - Probably one of the most common wheels you see on rigs these days.

Oh, and :flipoff2:


Thanks for the compliments!

Ha! Oh, yea, a turd joke! :rolleyes: :flipoff2: :D

Cat yellow!! that would be awesome. You going to run the stripes and put on a model #?, that would be sweet. Wish I thought of that. I've seen Jeeps with John Deere paint, I thought that was pretty cool.
My Jeep will be painted, (or rolled) with roll on liner on the inside and out. Don't ask me why, I like the textured fuzzy look.

I hadn't thought about the stripes and a model number, but I guess I could. :D

Thanks for the idea!

looking good...nice spring plates. i wish i could make turds like that...mine just endup brown.

:beer:

looks like they had a fun time balancing the TSL and 767 combo:p
:beer:

Nice turd. Those turds must have hurt coming out. Is that a Scout 44 in the back? If so, does yours have a breather hole/tube? After I put mine in, I realized it does not have a breather hole! It's from a 74 Scout II. I don't think I will run it like that, but haven't decided the best place to put the hole yet. I think it is strange that it doesn't have a breather tube.


Any thoughts on this?

Jason

dude you can see the hole in the pic next to the spring plate...or it could be where the break line t bolts up. Just drill you a hole in the tube and tap it. DONE

(make sure it is not under the spring plate if you dont have the axle in yet...if you ever swaped in widetrack axles in a old CJ-5 you know about that crap storm)

:beer:

It looks like some one needs to get busy. Get that thing put together:flipoff2: :D We need to wheel!!

Blah blah blah. :flipoff2: :D

I've got a buddy of mine making some high steer arms for me for the flat top knuckles. As soon as he get's them done, the front will go in. Unfortunately, since he is doing it for free, I can't be a dick and be all "SO, are you working on those yet?"

Patience sucks. :D

Hey Indy, Thats gonna look really good when its done.... Love the look of the rolling chassis the way it sits now.. are you planning on driving this thing every day?
Scott :grinpimp:<><
And Oh yeah... Indy :flipoff2:

Nah, I'm not going to drive it everyday. That would cost too much money to get it to that condition.

I'm in the "cheaper is better" mode right now, and am going to make a good wheeler out of it. I can't wait to get the front end in, that's for sure. Hopefully I will have it done "enough" by May for me to drive. I won't have it completely done (are they ever?) but it will be close enough.


Oh, and Scott... :flipoff2:

Thats cool... what are you driving everyday now? Or do you have that luxury of being able to work from home? :flipoff2:

My thought, shut your trap :flipoff2:

If you are using the stock Scout T for the brake lines, then you also have a breather.
