Project: Tetanus Shot - 1948 Willys

@getstucksome found me a killer deal on some 38” tsl sx and some beadlocks so I went and picked them up Saturday morning.

Big bummer. Lost fuel pump after 10 mins of riding. Fuel pump works after hot wiring but injectors won’t fire.

Big shoutout to @ghost for helping troubleshoot and then letting me ride shotgun!

Any day in the woods is a good day in my book. Good to see you.
 
Per my other thread, its back up and running. My ECU power line(always hot) pulled out of the crimp but was still being held in the heatshrink so visually it looked complete. Re-crimped the connection and it fired right up and idled way smoother than before.

Its a big letdown that something that easy cost me the whole weekend but its working now and I'll know in the future.

I also lost trailer lights on the way home so I need to do a complete rewire of the existing wiring plus add some reverse lights. Then its time to plan another trip....this time with lots of spare electrical parts :rolleyes:

I believe you friend there said. It's going to be something simple and stupid..... Glad it's sorted. Let me know if you go back to Gulches.
 
Been a while. Made it to the NC4x4 meetup and the jeep ran great. Got home and parked it for a few months.

Turns out I lost a Ujoint cap on the drivers side axle shaft. Got it all pulled apart yesterday and found this.

Looks like I’m going chromos sooner than expected.

ECGS the best place still?

Long side stub to be accurate.

Pretty sure I have a stub shaft with a good joint attached to a short side. Not sure if the short side will fit your waggy, can't remember what it fits. But I acquired it when I was running wagoneer axles in that Willy's

Can be had for 12 hazy days.
 
@Jeff B let me know if you can find it. I’d definitely be interested. 12 hazy days is good for me, I just finished a case.

@Noel looks like that one would work. Just basing it off some rough measurements, both stub shafts are the same overall length.

I’d be interested in both if they will work. I have all the shafts out of the front so I can always bring them to match up.
