It'll hopefully move under its own power shortly after xmas. But It'll probably be a couple months later when I get the exhaust done and the front axle regeared when it will be ready to attack the trails.

Finally got the jeep to move under its own power on Jan 1. It took some fidling with but its running pretty good. Still have a few kinks to work out but its one giant step closer now.
