Managed to find some time here n there between turkey hunting and work to get a bit of progress on the jeep. The front suspension is all tacked together and the front axle is sitting under it, I'm waiting on new u bolts and plates for the front and rear axles, should be getting new ball joints for it soon too, once it's sitting on all 4 wheels again I can start too mock up the motor mounts and finally get the 360 in it. I also managed to pick up an old 1979 Honda atc 110 at an online auction, it doesn't run but the engine isn't seized so if I can get it running for cheap I may keep it

i have all the new u bolts for it, my neighbor cut me 4 new plates for the u-bolts, i just have to drill them, i already started on two of them. i also got my steering knuckle back from my cousin, he was unable to do anything with it, problems with machines at his work, i gave both steeringknuckles to my neighbor and he is going to machine it down and drill/tap it for me, he also says he can make me both steering arms for, big bonus there, he will be getting some beer for that, once i have them back i will order the ball joints and it will be rolling again
