Look at ranch YJ towards making street legal
It's already thursday? Guess I've been slacking on the blog. Chris broke a toe the other day, so I finished the YJ cage. It's being painted right now. After we reinstall it with the seats, harnesses, and put the top hardware back together, all that will be left is to finish the rear frame tie-ins. Hopefully, Chris will be back tomorrow.

Ted and Eric knocked out the 5.13 re-gear on Patrick's Rubicon. The rear also got a 35 spline axle upgrade with an ARB to avoid the inevitable Rubicon rear locker failure.

We finally got the forrect cap and rotor for Tori's FJ40. Thanks to the guys at Wimberly 4wd. I cant tell you how many wrong caps were sent back to the local parts store.

Scott's FJ60 got to the shop on a tow strap. We warrantied the alternator, but looks like it also needs a flywheel. We'll be pulling that one part tomorrow, more than likely.

As we speak, Ted is diagnosing Aaron's YJ. It hasn't died on us after a 20 minute test drive, but we're going through electrical diagnostics right now.

After Eric is done painting the cage, it's on to cummins removal.
