No test run before you haul it 1000 miles away?

I have been driving the jeep a lot lately. Atleast 50-100 miles a week. Today I drove it in a parade. I am really happy with how it is performing now and have really gotten comfortable driving it. Time to go wheeling though.

Well Elise is out of town and took Mason so I decided to work on the jeep a little. I pulled the old diff cover with the hole off and am waiting for paint to dry on the new one. I pulled my broken crossmember out and will likely just weld it back up in the morning. I was going to build a new low profile new one but decided to just wait till I get around to ordering an atlas to build that one. Oil is hardly showing on the dipstick. Probably why I kept loosing pressure in Clayton. I don't have anything that I have to do to it to go wheeling again other that that. I would like to order an atlas 5.0, build a cage, new flat belly cross member, and rework steering a little. Wouldn't mind a fuel cell so I can put the bench seat back in the back but the old bronco seat in the back is enough for now.

Thinks needed to do before TCC
Replace broken grease zercs on links and grease everything (all squeaking bad) have 7 broken zercs.
Throw on a different set of shocks on the rear
Need to find a new trailer before then too.
Damn not a bad list.

If you cut a small piece of tube and weld it around the zerk it will keep them from getting tore off.
He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!
Good idea thanks

I got all my links greased. I had to swap in one new Johnny joint because I fubared one trying to drill out the broken zerk. It is nice and quiet driving down the road now. I still need to pull te driveshafts to get them greased properly. And the rear slip joint on the driveshaft has a broken zerk that needs some attention. I didn't weld any protectors on the links because I didn't want to weld to the Johnny joints. Still need to dig out some rear shocks out of the shop. Also am going to tack weld my transmission crossmember to the frame because my damn bolt holes stripped and I don't want to spend the time to fix it right. I also need to put in a seatbelt in the driver seat. Mine is broken and won't stay latched.
