Sometime late last summer I was talking to Jim about modding his jeep and it snowballed and somehow I got in the middle of it. before I knew what was going on I agreed to build his jeep over again pretty much. The goal was lots of strength and a nice cushy ride while providing clearance for 40's in the future.

The entire build/arguing/problem solving thread is here: http://www.misfitoffroad.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=8991&start=0

it will be completely finished and wheelable in the next couple weeks.
here are a few pictures of the build:

Got my wiring figured out. We traced it back to the steering column. I had bought a tilt column but hadn't wanted to take the time to mess with it but what the heck, let's give it a try. We swapped the steering wheel & put it in. Zing, problem solved!

So, the setback added my tilt column and intermittent wipers. :thumb:

Your description led not only me, but others as well, to read it as you swapped in the new column but had to swap on your old man steering wheel (with the little turning knob I'm sure) to get everything to work. :poke: We'll call this one a draw. Now get to work so I can get this pile all scratched up in two weeks!
