Whats happening to the red Jeep? And you suck.  Not sure what to do with it Tim. On one hand if I sell it as is I'll never get my money back. On the other hand if I strip the drivetrain out there isnt much left to sell. Jason had an interesting idea yesterday, take the axles out put them on the Willys. Take the 401 & put it in the buggy sell whats left of the red Jeep. Any other suggestions? |

I hear you on not getting full value if you sell the red jeep whole and using the parts in other project might be the best answer. Does this mean that you will have a 360 to sell? ..  K |

If you contaminate that Willys with those axles, I'll beat ya. Besides, you're going to sell me your rear 60. Might as well keep a good thing going. Seriously, buy a freaking auto tent like Jason (except without the holes) and keep them all. |

So finally some progress, got the rear steer axle all assembled with the Dedenbear knuckles, brake caliper brackets, spindles & hubs. Using the Chevy Dana60 housing with all Ford outers. Final Wheel Mounting Surface is about 63.5" thanks to those spacers. So I think the front end will need to be around 65.5", 66" at the most. What do you think Jason? Now I just need to get the inner long shaft cut & resplined, I should check to see if the Red Jeep's spare inner long shaft works, it would be great if it would   Yup thats the front end standing up at the back, thats next on the menu! |

Funny you mention that, recently installed a 12'x20' next to the woods, red jeep is presently in there, I don't think both it and the Willys fit length wise......hmmmm maybe if I put them at an angle it might work, might try that |

Hey I just noticed that string for steering rod, good idea and probally cheaper then the ALU we were going to use Jason. Yea was a quick way to get the knuckles lined up. Still missing the hardware for one side of the Ballistic high steer arm. UPS says its going to arrive tomorrow. Also got a new set coming for the front. Once that arrives and I get the inner long shaft I'll be doing final assembly, hopefully by the weekend |
