Havent been on here in a while so I thought I would stop by. Been spending all my spare time on my new rig 1975 CJ5 sitting on 33x12.50x15 3in lift and a good ole AMC360 under the hood. Heres a couple pics of the day I brought it home.

Drove it to Milwaukee. ..

Been a Busy 10 days and haven't had time to get online so here is what I did in the last 10 days to my truck... First I dipped the Bowties red it gives it a little accent color to match the hood decals and z71 sticker. Then I got my new tires put on Cooper AT3s 275 60 20. Then I put in a level kit and rear blocks in my buddies 10 Silverado. Also my simple wash job turned into a full on wax job, but took it out in the field today to work with the dog on water retrieves and brought it back home to wash it again. Also was able to squeeze in an oil change for our trip to Milwaukie this weekend, anyone know of anything good to do there? That is all ... Jeez seems like Ive had a lot of time to get stuff done.

Ordered some Cooper at3s tonight. Went a little taller 275 60 20. Can't wait to get them!

Drove it to Bismarck nd this afternoon and staying down here a few days. Getting line X bed liner done in the am!

Scheduled my line X bed liner for the 17th. Now need to figure out if I want to go over the rails or under...

Did a little face lift to my buddies truck, Turned out good. Also while we were under there I noticed the CV axle boots were shot, so we threw in a couple new CV axels while we were at it. Also sold my Z71 wheels and tires last night.

Yes the parking down there is the worst. And I'm telling you I don't think any North Dakota people can drive normal. No offense to any of you out there.

Went last night and met up with a guy halfway between Minot ND and Bismarck ND to buy a set of factory 20s. Great shape and I got a great deal I think. They only have 8k miles and I picked them up for $850. Then I took the truck and wheels in this am to get the wheel balanced on the inside and had them put on. Man oh man it really changes the look and I feel it improve my ride quality.

Grabbing a beer and heading out to change the oil...

Pulled the truck out of the garage so I could clean my floor, then pulled it back in. Exciting sunday here

Sure is!

Made an appointment at the dealership today for my truck, when I was cleaning my garage floor I noticed some gear oil so I crawled under and seen I had a leaking front axel seal... Also going to have them look at my hands free calling because people cant hear me on my phone and check my brakes over since they are starting to scream already, I only have 25k on it seems a bit early for that.

Heck my wife is looking at getting rid of her Equinox already that has 20K on it and buy a new Sierra... Guess I have a winner!

Took the truck to Bismarck for the day, Wife had a nursing conference down there.
