"CHUCK" a slow build

Well i have had the CJ for 6 years now. So i figured its about time for a build thread!
A little History
I first got it when i was 16 (22 now) and spent equal time driving it and fixing it. I drove it to high school every day for 3 three years. It was my only car when i went off to college at U Maine. Until i bought my Pontiac to replace it for dd duties in 2008

Over the years i have made a lot of changes:
Disc Brake
MC2100 which was replaced by TBI
HEI
Supper top
Swaybar
AUX lights
Fiberglass tub
Winch
Waggie Power steering

Future Plans
New Dash- Next week
2.5 lift - this summer hopefully
Front cage hoop- this summer
t176 and d300(4:1 tera low)- When the t14 dies :twisted:

Here are a few pics of it over the years


The first time i wheeled it, Hooked !!!!!

More Wheeling

Some of the Changes

Sway Bar



What im most proud of, the tbi i built





In the next week i will be rebuilding the dash so stay tuned.....

 

Thought i would update this since this week i have some work planned since i'm off from school.

-Power Brakes, i have a waggy booster that looks like it will be VERY close to a bolt in from manual brakes.
-Frame Fix, replacing a section of cracked/rusted frame boxing behind the driver side motor mounts.
-Lift, I have a Pro Comp lift coming in near the end of the week.

First are a few pics of the updated dash and center console.
new dash...
I have a Autometer oil and cheapie voltage gauge in there now.

Console...
I moved ALL switches to the console to make operating them more convent while strapped in with the four point harnesses.


When i head out to the barn tomorrow ill get pics of my "Computer speaker" Ipod Amplifier and seat mounted speakers(I can hear it over the tires on the highway!).

 

Nice jeep looks fun up in the snow i have 67 cj5 v6 under const lol

 

I got some pics of the custom stereo setup.






I got some work done of the power brakes using the waggoneer firewall adapter/booster/master....
After grinding off two studs it bolts directly to the manual firewall holes....




Here is it all bolted up plenty of room near the TBI unit which is MUCH larger than most carbs.

 

One more today just a cool pics from overhead...

 

From that last shot, it looks like you've also added a Power Steering upgrade.
Perhaps a few shots of the brackets and belt routings for your PS Pump and the alternator flop as well as the steering box & mtg. bracket would be good referance materials for those of us (like me) planning to do that upgrade to our intermediate i6s. Thanks.

 

I can Snap a few pics of that when i head out to the barn later tonight.

Sorry for the wait...
My waggy box used the factory 3 bolt mount (one is unused), and uses a different spline coupler. (depends on the year box used).


You are MUCH better off fabing a bracket to hold the power steering pump. Than switching to a late model setup. Not only does it not bolt up due to small changes in the block, but you must change the harmonic ballancer,alternator and waterpump.
