POSTER: kastein VEHICLE: a lot over the years. Mostly XJs, MJs, 98-02 foresters, with a Dodge or three, a 5 ton, a Justy, a Buick, and a few FSJs sprinkled in for seasoning GOAL: everything from tedious daily maintenance and catching up on previous owner neglect to custom CNC fabrication and drivetrain swaps. Mostly been focused on LS swapping my crusty bobbed J truck for the last year or two. DIFFICULTY: good Lord what the gently caress was I thinking money smells terrible when it burns LINK: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3527505 (I'm editing a table of contents into the op as I find time but it's slow going. Basically gently caress-all happens till late 2013 when I 5 speed swap an XJ, then nothing till shy boy from chess club and I fly-and-drive a Justy 2000 miles in early 2015, then gently caress-all happens again till page 53 when I buy the j truck, then gently caress-all again till like, 2018ish I think when work began in ernest on the swap. Months of nothing but post whoring with no concrete progress of any kind. Expect to scroll a lot. There's a lot of napkin engineering and debate that leads to nothing and a lot of boring poo poo in between major leaps forward.) I have Jeep problems and overengineer things, but leave them ugly and beat. Before:   After: same look, but capable of highway speeds without having a wrecker under it
