M151a2 Resto project

[Lindsaym151]

Sorry its been so long since i posted any progress,I have been working out of town!
We have been having carb problems . I have been talking to the pros over at 838.

All said and done i hooked up with a locall rebuilder through MVPA. Told him my symptoms and have a date to get her rebuilt correctly next week!!
He assures me my troubles will be over!
Needs new shocks at the rear and probably up front also.
I put all new u-joints in 10 in all! looks like i might have a seeping seal at the front diff, could be just flung grease from the new u-joint.

All in all she is coming together nicely!
As my Dad always told me the last 10% is the hardest on any project!!!

Your project looks great. I have an A2 body in about the same shape as yours was in. Did you fabricate your replacement parts or did you buy them? If you bought them, who did you buy them from? Thanks

The truck looks great. Do you have the cut out in the side for the ax head to go into? I see it's outside the body and was just wondering.

 

[Lindsaym151]

No , that is a new panel. They don't come with one. I will have to wait till i can locate someone with a plasma cutter

That jeep looks sweet Lindsay! I have access to a plasma cutter!
