Testing out some new video glasses, the iVue Rincon with adjustable camera angles, wifi connect and a decent battery life!. Amazon link: http://amzn.to/2yn5wFs

Painted and installed the rocker guards, show my 2nd bucket of rust! Cleaned the lighter hole so I can mount my phone. Fixed my gas tank gauge, drilled a hole in the rear to get to it

Mounted my 33's! LT33X12.50R15 ROAD WARRIOR MT RADIAL
108 Q Mud Terrain, balanced up decent for cheap tires!! ebay link: https://goo.gl/yrCRct 

then a little offroading with chewey while I wear the Ivue Rincons. So far so good

This 82 CJ7 Wrangler came with the AMC 258ci inline 6 with 115hp @ 3200 rpm and 210 ftlb tq at 1800 rpm. with a GM TH400 (turbo 400) 3 speed automatic transmission, a Dana 300 transfer case, Dana 30 front axle,AMC 20 rear axle and the factory Hardtop.

I decided to remove the front frame of the plow and remove the belt from the pump.

Fun information:
CJ7 brand new in 1980ish was $6765
