What look are you going for with the finished project? What year is yours? Here is mine. Still got a little work to do to make it 100% original, but not too much. <img src="http://wayalife.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=124983"/>

I took the front differential apart found a lot of rusty bearings parently some idiot got water in it and left it in there for years. I also found a thin spot in the frame so I cut it out made a patch and welded it in then hopefully this weekend I'll get green paint on all these parts and rebuild that front differential and have a rolling chassis again

Lol yeah. I want to do a ww2 trailer. We havn't used it in a year. We are so busy with all thats going on between the horses and shows. We're going to take the jeep beach and put a for sale sign on it there if it doesn't sell it doesn't sell we can always use it.
 
Put the knuckles together and installed the axles this afternoon. I'm waiting on some spindles to finish it. Hoping to paint the frame,springs and diffs saturday Message_1424380246140.jpg20150219_173236.jpg20150219_135515.jpg :thumb:
