1yr JEEP OWNER in PROV

Hi there, thanks for the invite! Had my jeep for a little over a year. I’ve done some mods and looking to do more. The internet is great for learning, but it would be cool if I could meet up with some experienced local jeep owners to look at my rig and answer some questions I have about future mods. Thanks!

You found the right place welcome

Great to be here! Thanks! I actually heard about this site thru a couple of members that I met last early spring. I can’t remember their names, but I bet they’d remember me. I went out to Tiverton and bought a 2.5 off em’ and I took it away in the back of a Honda civic!!! Having it rebuilt as we speak. I know, everyone says just get a six, but hey, it was a good deal!

ha! ya i remember that story. that was freejeep

Haha, welcome john. Hope it all worked out

Ha ha awesome. That was fun loading that. Welcome

HAH! That’s me alright!!! Yeah, I’m having it rebuilt at R and R in Warwick right now.

Did you ever get it installed

It’s at R&R in Warwick being rebuilt right now. Not sure if I’ll put it in right away when I get it back in a few weeks. I might just wait til next spring, and get what I can out of this rattle-trap motor that’s in it right now.I’d like to install new exhaust,headers and such, and maybe some nice brown dog motor mounts too when I do the install, depending on how much money I have.

Do yourself a favor, and do the engine swap over the winter. Whenever you start something in the spring, it always takes twice as long, and you miss a whole lot of wheeling time. Ask me how I know!

Do tell.

Last year, a three-week spring over conversion, with axle swap turned into a 3 month project. The year before, a three-week engine swap, turned into a 4 month ordeal.

I missed a lot of good wheeling the last two Springs because of this. Break it down in December, January, and February. When you won’t be missing anything. If you don’t have a garage, dress warm, and do it outside. I did most of my engine swap outdoors.
