Broke kid from the Burg

Hey guys, stumbled across the site and was pumped to see all the jeeps!  Just really started jeepin my '72 CJ5 this past summer with my uncle and hopefully will get to know some of you guys a bit better.  I got my jeep when I turned 16 and for the past four years I've been slowly building it into a more capable trail jeep.  I'm a junior at CWU and money is tight so progress has been slow, but finally my jeep is starting to come along!  On to the pics and specs

1972 CJ5

Front disc conversion (scout)
Aussie lockers f/r (d30/44)
Chevy 350
Recently swapped in T-98/dana 20
33x12.50 tsl's
custom tube fenders
2.5'' lift

Looking good. Front fenders are looking nice in that second picture, did you change them before wrinkled them up?Spare hub in the spare tire, i like it. Keep an eye on the upcoming run section, maybe we'll see you on the trail.

Kinda sorta... Dented the drivers side right on the corner at Evans Creek so bobbing them the way I would've liked wasn't really an option.  Passenger side right behind the fenderwell opening got a little smashed at Elbe when pivoting around a rock.  SO i guess you could say they had a little damage, but definitely fixable    I was just itchin to build some since I had material.

When I built the bumper I figured better safe then sorry so I threw the spare hub on   

nice lookin rig. welcome

Tried getting ahold of you but I don't think my msg is Goin through...let me know if you need help. .

Not a problem. I pulled it apart and I think I got it set up pretty good! I bought a rebuild kit and thoroughly cleaned everything before messing with the float level. After researching everything I read pretty much agreed with what you told me on the phone. I just kinda winged the float level and tested it on the steepest hill I could find that was local. My jeep used to barely start to sputter right as I got to the top. I sat mid hill for a few minutes and raised the rpm's and didn't experience any the jeep ran great and didn't seem to be starving for fuel. The real test will be on the next jeep run, but seems to be better already.

We're running saturday.....

I saw that and would love to go... Gotta work in the morning and have my brother's graduation party in the evening. Hopefully next time you guys have s run I'll be able to make it.
