| Rebuilding a 1997 Jeep TJ |
 |
| The body is off. Sure of success, I already bought new tires. |
 |
That's me driving the chassis to my new workshop - inside an insulated 53-foot highway trailer. |
 |
Welding new sections into the chassis where it had rusted away. I also relocated the suspension mounts to give greater ground clearance. |
 |
This is an example of a typical replacement section on the body. The white box around the section of jeep below shows the location of this piece. |
 |
 |
Along the way, I built this ganty crane from some old 8-inch square steel tubing. (Shown by the red arrows). The crane can be moved forward and aft along the inside walls of the trailer/workshop. It is shown here holding the painted chassis. The crane could probably lift 30 tonnes, far more than I needed, but the tubing was at hand and free! |
| After completing all this work in a 53- foot highway trailer, and building all the equipment we needed (from the gantry crane to a welding station), we were ready to move to our completed, well-appointed shop! |  |
