I ended up having a local spring shop build me new ones that flexed better. Depends on the 'wheeling environment you play in. They do ok for me 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment

banzai510(hainz) Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 (edited) I love the looks of the 3Bs I always dreamed of having a fleet of Mitshibishi diesel ones, they seem to be cheap on the market but if alot of parts around. I have a feeling they are better actually(more dependable) https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1988-mitsubishi-j53/ https://buy.motorious.com/articles/news/389202/1991-mitsubishi-j53-jdm-jeep/ Edited April 30 by banzai510(hainz) 1 Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted August 16 Author Report Share Posted August 16 I built a shift cover, I don't remember how long it hasn't had one but I don't really remember it having one lol. Was a fun aluminum project, pretty happy with how it turned out. Really helps keep the heat and noise down... weird. 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted August 17 Author Report Share Posted August 17 Some pics 🙂 then I drove the Jeep to whidbey island for a get together with some old friends. Fully shook down at this point and I am pretty pleased to be able to just jump in it and drive again.

]2eDeYe Posted August 30 Author Report Share Posted August 30 Bought some gauges so I can keep an eye on the temps and oil pressure. I have a new bezel and new glass on the way for the speedo, will fix the blown fuse for the temp and fuel gauge when I pull that one out. 1 Quote Link to comment
