WOW on the no internet deal! Its amazing when you see that, I cant imagine it cause I have been on the internet asking hundreds of questions just to modify a toyota!
Camo sez:if i am to understand correctly you bought it already done and are going to run it until you build a new one?
Yea - it's already done - and I didn't build it - I feel lame! (But there's much tweaking to do...full hydro and such)
But - it gets me back wheeling while I build my other buggy.Still going to do that....over time. See, originally I was going to take a
couple of years or so to do it - and wheel the XJ meantime. But the XJ wasn't meeting my needs. Now I have a wheeler, and can take my time. I want to build my own, just for the fun of it, plus I still plan to use a LR Series II body - coz it reminds me of my childhood (no cheap psychoanalysis please I want a 4 seater for the family runs too. Speaking of which - how / in waht do you restrain the little 'uns in the Back camo?
What I'd like to do with this one is slap on some Swampers and trailer it down there and do some competin'.....open up a big ol' can of red and white maple flavoured whoop ass!

No kidding - I often wonder how much other untapped genious is out there...still, at least we have this place!
Brett sez:I can't wait to wheel with ya in sept.
It's going to kick ass! REALLY looking forward to it. Anywhere I can see pics of your Bronc? (always loved the bronco!)
How Ironic!! I was just doing some searching through old posts here on POR and came across this pic.
Oh well, I see with the temporary low bandwidth condition, that I can not use the image tags so I will just post the link.
This pic....
I was going to PM you some time this week, asking what is up with your friends buggy, and how he is liking his tires.
What a surprise when I logged in and saw your thread!
Congratulations on ,what looks to be, money well spent.
It is a really nice looking buggy.
hey bill, glad your xj parts didn't go all over the place, nice to see it still in almost one piece....... ........ and now that ya got rue's snipe........ hmmmm...... going to be alot more fun than the xj ever was.........
and bill, thanks for that one part off your xj, its works great.......
and i see that rue made the adapter himself right??? does he have a e-mail or anything, i'd like to get an adapter for a duel toyota case so i can run toy running gear in my zuki...... but the adapters are a little expensive....
have a blast with your new sniper........
-Mike
"Bill, are you gonna keep the xj tech on your site?"
Let me answer this way....you still have a tiny soft spot in your heart for your first real girlfriend? ...it stays....and the XJ is still the best all-round Jeep ever built....but I STILL want a '43 GPW!
"you suck"
And you're going to find out just how much!
"Damn! How wide is that front axle"
I think you mean "damn, how narrow is that body!" (I miss flipoffs). It's wahtever a stock Chevy 1 ton d60 is - I guess 68-72" or something. The real answer is....who cares!!
hey bill, do ya think rue would and could be able to make an adapter for duel toy cases????? if i get 2 cases to him and the metal to do it????
thanks alot...
-Mike
If you need any help putting that full hydro setup together, let me know. I have already sent one kit up your way(Alberta) that should be romping on the trail soon.
Pretty sure he could probably do it, but you'd be best to bring him the cases and leave them with him.
