Post up your BB15 build progress

Started to do the crossover steering and found... a broken frame!! I put the ORD steering box brace in, but it still broke. Running out of time and money, better I found it now then at Moab
 
Got this done yesterday.

Still need to add the latch and a few things. I also got the sending unit swapped out so my fuel gauge works again.
 
Finally pulled the tarps off the buggy, cleaned up the battery tray and painted it, installed the battery and fired it up. Spent some time making a short list of things to do before I leave.

Not much more than that, my list is maybe one good day of work so I hope to be putting it on the trailer on Labor day.

Which means I'll be late getting to Moab in time for the night run cause that ain't happening.
 
Bought a bunch of spare parts, hubs, axle shaft, ignition module, OIL FILTER, and on and on. Why is my debit card smoking???

Mounted two fire extinguishers, Took off worn out full soft top and put on new Bimini Top, but I might go topless for the drive out. Highway speed is pretty rough on the Bimini Tops, Plus I gotta work on the tan. :whistle:

Wifey told me last night, there is a good amount of extra money in the account we use for online and vacation purchases. I think I will leave it in there since you are going to Moab, I laughed and said it will be gone before I am.

I've got to get her to the AC shop to be leak checked, vacuumed and charged. Then load everything up!!! This time next week I'll be sailing down the highway on the way to Moab!!!
 
Damn. The AC shop can't get me in til Tuesday. Not exactly what I wanted but it'll have to do. That leaves me the rest of the week to go ahead and wire up some lights and get a few little thing a done.
