Grew up in south Jersey, muddin in the Pines was my intro to wheeling, lol.
It was a fun day. Covered a lot of ground which was great. My son took a video of the end of Excalibur. Try this link:

I'd like to move out my collection of 80 parts. These are from a '95 which I cut up and scrapped. All of the OEM parts are free, just want them gone. Off the top of my head, here is some of what I have:
- Most interior parts (tan)
- Tailgate
- Doors (I'm keeping the RR for the '93)
- FZJ80...
I'd avoid the spacers. They work until they don't, then you are in for a bad day. As for tires, the BFG's will be nice a quiet on the road, the M/T's will work much better offroad. Depends where your priorities lie.
Got a set of OME 861/862 springs I have no use for. Used, $100.
TJM front springs, 2". Rattle canned flat black. $100
Dobinson C97-147VT rear springs. Rattle canned flat black. $200
Dobinson GS59-687 4-6" rear shocks. Came with the Dobinson springs. Can't say they are new, as they have...
So a long over due update. Not much has happened.
I hemmed and hawed all summer about what to do with the 80. In the end I am sticking with the plans in my last post. Picked up @BROKEROB1's 315's a few weeks back. Got them swapped on this week. Going through the brakes now. Replacing...
Worked from home today. 5:30 rolls around, so outside to swap tires to the old KM2's. Get the first jacked up and pulled, tell Josh where to find the lug nuts... You can guess the rest. Spent an hour digging around looking for damn things. Gave up, put the KO2 back on. Had Josh clear a path...
