M416, SCORE!

I was talking to a buddy of mine on the phone about a month ago and just happened to say something about the ¼ ton military trailers I liked.  Well he knew of one sitting in a field and said he’d ask the old lady who owned it one day…  The day came, she said I could have it, so I high tailed it out to the desert and Josh and I picked it up (along with the Cushman he got for himself).  I even tried to give her some money for it but she refused!  Best of all the trailer was in almost perfect shape, no hacked up tailgate!  The only problem was a broken landing leg and a modified lunette, both of which will be fairly easy fixes.

Wagoneer Tail Lamps

Posted on by 0 comment

Well a little project I’d always wanted to do was to give my red Jeep tail lamps from an XJ Wagoneer because the all red lenses would look nice with my red body.  I finally found a good set at the yard so it was time to pop them in and modify the wiring back there to use them properly.

The right hand tail lamp is a Wagoneer lamp, the left side is a standard US Spec Cherokee lamp.

My first Jeep!

Well after always wanting a 4×4 vehicle I bought a 1989 Jeep Cherokee for $4,600.00. It was nice and clean with only a bit of fender damage to the right front and a perfect interior. I’d never really given Cherokees much thought before then, I only chose it because I wanted a mid-sized vehicle that was in budget.

I’m glad I bought it, even if it has tortured me from time to time.
