My 1967 Jeepster Commando Project was taking too long, and I wanted to not miss another summer of fire road driving, so like usual, doom scrolling FaceSpace marketplace landed me a new project.
Goal: get it running and driving, and do a lot of things that Dustin (Torx on NAXJA) did with his ride The Nail Salon before he started losing body panels.
Currently-
Bumpers front and rear, 4.5" BDS full spring pack short arm lift, Warn 9500HS winch, front swaybar discos, SYE with rear CV shaft, blown head gasket, maybe needs ball joints, Spidertrax wheel spacers and JK wheels with 255/75r17's (metric 32's).
D30 and 8.25 diffs.
Bought a bunch of parts to freshen up a spare engine I have lying around and will toss that in, change all fluids front to back, and see where that takes me.
It was kinda cool to be able to just search for parts by the vehicle make / model / year vice "what will fit in this hole and do this for me after 5 hours of fabricating a custom bracket"
