    Now on to new project. Working out a brake issue before I start the front axle tear down/rebuild.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    I am still drawing out my plan of attack but so far it looks like this:

    1. fix mechanical issues
    2. rebuild front axle
    3. tidy up the frame and other rust spots
    4. lift, wheels, tires
    5. front/rear bumpers, winch
    6. rear locker
    dont know from here, the above will take plenty of time.
