The Other Vehicle

My Winter Snow Toy. Heated cab, sure makes cleaning the drive up easier. Being a full fledged Chump I help a couple neighbors out while at it.

Finally got my YJ back after regretfully selling it to my son last spring, now I just need to replace the cheap seats he put in it, luckily he didn’t mess with anything else and only put about 100 miles on it.IMG_2609.jpeg

YJ buddies !
 
I built my other vehicle out of an 85 GMC 7000 fire truck bought it with just over 12,000 original miles. V8 turbocharged engine 250 HP welded 24 inches on the front of the bed from a donor bed so it was proportionally right to many guys use a 8 foot bed and they look like tonka trucks. Last picture is how it was when I drove it out of the firehouse in ohio and drove it back to illinois.

That is some really great work, great build.. I'd love to see it
 
Owning a Jeep is an experience!

Not always a good experience but always an experience :D:p
Well put! After owning 4 of them over the years 1 CJ7 2 Yjs and one JK i would buy one again but this time it would have to be an LJ or CJ8 scrambler. I like the longer WB hell my ranger crew is 6” longer than my yj was. But fun fact a YJ fits perfectly in a 6x12 dumptrailer :D

I went XJ to ZJ to YJ to tube chassis. However, I need a DD again in the next year. Fairly certain it will be a 2 door XJ again. Was just a fun rig. Cheap and easy to fix for me anyway.
 
Time to clean up spilt fluids from the rolls, change cable t-case shifters back to standard levers, reconfigure center console for comms upgrade, replace bent tube. And wait for it..... paint more of the chassis! This stuff is a lot easier when you are not under pressure to hit a date. Like most things in life of course.
