Tymac's Wrangler Projects

[Tymac]

Finally got it together about a month ago. I rebuilt the 4.0L and trans. Then dropped in a Detroit locked 8.8 in the back. Then added a Spartan locker to the front and new gears at both ends. I picked up a set up beadlocks and finally got my 35's mounted up. My son Ty and I took it out to Jeepskool on Saturday and wheeled over 12 hours. We had a great time. I even let Ty take it by himself for 4 hours expecting him to bring it back with parts hanging off, but he did well.



Into the Drunk Tank





My son Ty at the wheel getting it covered in Beaver Poo. I let him off the leash for a few hours that afternoon and got it back completely covered, including the interior.


We even got some time in for a little fishing....H3 was the catch of the day! It was our friend Nick. He'd never been there before and couldn't wait for us to find him, so he came looking for us. Opps wrong turn.

Did Nick end up with a wet interior?

[Tymac]

Oh ya! Front to back on the passenger side. It almost made it to the seats, but luckily for him it was just below. He has 2 big subs and a professional built speaker enclosure that also got wet. That was the first trail of the day and it's one I don't go down, because of how deep it is. That is the shallow part. Move forward another 100 yards and it get 35 inches deep.

I got swallowed in puddle that looked like nothing but the whole front of the jeep disappeared into it LOL I try to avoid that stuff

[Tymac]

At some point in our lives we've all gotten in a little to deep.

Nick said "It looked pretty deep, but I was too lazy to put a stick in it. Guess I learned a lesson there."

Thanks for sharing Tymac. That's a nice Wrangler.

Nice pics Jason. I had fun that day at JeepSkool even though I had to leave kind of early.

No problem. Glad you had some time to come out.

Check out the thread for Dover Dirt Trail over at NEO or JS. Marcel and I evaluated the atv only place for the owner in mid June. He decided to open the gate on August 20-21 for a truck only weekend. If you can get free the property is cool. Typical southern Ohio terrain heavily wooded and hilly with good trails and plenty of obstacles..
