Any Jeepers in here?

[Butch627]

Hey guys I have a really old trailer axle that needs old factory CJ 5x5.5 x 15 rims with the large center hole used by Jeep and IH. I am looking for some in Lake County if anyone has some they want to get rid of. Ill be hitting some self service boneyards in a few weeks if anyone has some leads on where I might find them.

I know it'll be a little haul but Baseline 4x4 Recyclers in Kendallville is THE source for used Jeep parts. Check out their website baseline4x4.com for online inventory search and you can request they pull your parts ahead or just have them mail/ship them to you, your choice!

You guys have some really nice rigs! Love this one especially!

Thank you. Sadly, the Suburban is long gone. Traded in so the wife could get a new mini-van. (the very definition of love)
She's paying for it now, as I've been taking up the garage for 3 years building the CJ7 from the frame up...

By the way, y'all are welcome to follow along...

Building a $120 CJ7 from the frame up.

Wasn't sure there would be any interest for this here... but I have threads going on Jeep forums, and on other sites. I've been stalking the Jeep thread here, but rarely post because mine isn't done yet... Figured I'd give y'all a shot as watching me stumble my way through my first ever total...

Well it's lifted but only half-done. Leave it to me to break my foot while lifting a Jeep so we got it mobile and I'll have to circle back around to it in a few weeks once I'm out of the walking boot!

 

[Slow Hand]

Did I meet you last Sunday at the Martinsville range?

Well yes I did. You took that pic then, didn't you?

Yes sir, that was me! INGO’ers everywhere!

Wow, sorry to hear that!

Wow, sorry to hear that!

Yeah, I'm really bummed about it, I wanted to have everything done on the Jeep in one shot. But there were ... complications.

Wife bought a 2021 Gladiator last fall. I really liked it. Replace my old Tacoma with this 2020 Sport. It is our second car for running around.

Having fun with it already. Yes, bought it in the recent rain downpour!! The creek behind the dealer was flooding the roads.

Where did you get the front bumper on the gladiator?

I bought a 2021 Toaster ( fully loaded Limited ).

Turbo, so can outrun my ol lady w her shoes tied together.

Put the 97 beater Zj w 5.2 and 220k up for sale. Buddy listed it on FB for me. What a cluster. Rude and stupid, what the hell do they expect for $1500 and 24 yrs old? With 220K ?

I drove it every day for 6 yrs.

The 5.2L is good. 3.73 gears so was gonna BB and 31 it.

But never got around to it. Maybe I will now LOL. If it sells fine, if not I dont care.

Itll haul lumber from Lowes just fine.
ZJ my fave body style. Heaters that work are nice ( compared to CJ LOL ).

Didnt care for tbe 2004 WJ we had.

 

[Hookeye]

Thought about lift, tires and wheels for the toaster. 3K

And less gas mileage.

Not gonna happen w Biden screwing everything up.

Keep my mpg at max.

What is a "Toaster"?

 

[jake blue]

What is a "Toaster"?

I think it refers to the Jeep Renegade, it kinda looks like a toaster on wheels.
