Je hebt toch al een YJ tank en een complete pomp/ zender unit? Gat groter maken en de ring er op bouten. Easy peasy

De ring laat je een TJ pomp unit gebruiken.

Andere oplossing is a genright fuelpump ring, niet goekoop maar kan je zo op de YJ tank schroeven. Als het uit de US verscheept zou moeten worden zou dat mischien goedkoper zijn of ongeveer het zelfde kosten

Ben al jaren aan het doorgaan

Kun je niet een externe pressure regulator met een return line gebruiken?

Spend 3 of my vacation days in the Shaverlake area of Northern California.

The Sieras are such a nice piece of nature and the area has some pretty nice trails to boot. On top of that it was nice to escape the head wave.

15 degrees Celius during the day instead of 40 is a big improvement.

3 degrees at night instead of 30 doesn't hurt either.

We camped several nights at the side of different gorgeous mountain lakes.

Golly life is good. The wheelin didn't disappoint either.

Life at 3300 meters just isn't so bad every now and then

Watching bats at dusk, skimming the lake to try and snag insects before the lil trouts jump out of the water to catch the insects is pretty cool.

All in all a great time with some good 4 wheelin thrown in

Headed up to Big Bear today to have a lil offroad fun, nothing to drastic

Ran Holcomb, white mountain and John Bull. JB muched one of my old krawlers, so in the next couple of weeks will have two more MTR's on my pup put Jeep

White mountain has one really nice climb, steep with some small ledges and all loose rocks, like trying to climb up a hill with ball bearings

Was the best part of the day

Somebody invitied me to come out for a lil play time on a stretch of blm land/ trash dump

That is one of the coolest forgotten pieces of desert, just out of town if I ever seen such a thing.

To bad people consider the desert a trash dump.

Loose rocks, big rocks, steep climbs it has all kinds a playground stuff. No canyons, so you can just wander around boulder fields pretty darn cool.

Loose rocks with sand in between make it fun and challenging.

I hope Steve took some cool pics of my lil put put Jeep.

Beautification is continuing

On the Jeepin fixin front, made my winder yeller again.

From this

To this

Look what happened after my nap

Now add some yeller and it's all pretty again

All mudded up

Time for a nap, has been a productive day

Dit is de tweede die ik er zo uit gehaald hebt, zou zelfs deze ruit weer kunnen gebruiken

Well continued prettyfication

Look ma no more holes

De dingen die je met een brood mes doen kan

Have been wanting to fix up my lil yellow Jeep for a while now.

Since the windshield is cracked and the frame is the wrong color, that was a good starting point.

Dug out my trusty bread knife and went to town, didn't even add another crack to the glass.

Took about 30-40 mins of elbow grease to get that critter cut out

On to welding some small holes in the frame shut, add bondo and then give er some pretty yeller paint

Good thing windshields are cheap both my Jeep wanted new glasses

Volvo C303 axles are a better choice. Same problem applies hard to built around while keeping Jeep relatively low and still achieve about 6" of uptravel.

if you want to win more clearance, try the tunnelaxles, like the ones from unimog

Unimog portals are a terrible choice. diffhousing is to big, up to high ,makes for a way to tall Jeep with almost no uptravel in the suspension. What it showes is that there is no more than 1/4" difference between the 14 bolt with 37" tires and a Dana 44 with 35" tires

Dana 30 with 35" tires and Dana 60 with 37" tires same diff clearance.

The bottom of the 14 bolt has been shaved a bit, do not care for the shave kits, takes to much strength out of the housing. Michel for mudding just roll some 40's or 43's under there, you got more than enough power for some serious mud dogging/ bogging

In between shooting the bull and resting up from a long hot work week, I managed to sneak a lil tinker time in

Here is something for the high diff clearance crowd, which axle is under which Jeep and what has more clearance.

Did some measuring today and thought this was interesting

35" tires versus 37" tires, all at 30 psi. Stock axles versus versus D60 HP and 14 bolt. Which is which? Where is the diff clearance advantage?

Y'all tell me where the big advantage of weaker axles with less gearing choices is?

It all comes off easy. Mud flaps come of in about 1 minute flat. Highway patrol demands tire coverage. Otherwise I wouldn't bother with it

Well got her hiney somewhat covered up

It's rednecked, but should keep PoPo of my @ss

Getting ready for put put wheelin season

Did a lil bit of tinkering in the heat this afternoon. Darn piece was a pain in the neck to make. Astonished that my jig saw cut the curves in 1/4" plate.

Welding when it's a 100 degrees out just isn't all that much fun. Nevertheless there is progress
