Re: YJ goes under the knife
I'd be interested in trying that pump if you don't have plans for it. How much are you looking to get?

Re: YJ goes under the knife
Ordered fuel system stuffs.
Welded all my tabs for the roof and firewall as well as started on a B-pillar X behind the seats. Also seriously considering KOH tech spec A-pillars (an additional vertical brace running directly down from the top of the bend.

Re: YJ goes under the knife
Got all the remaining parts into finish up my fuel system. Going to run a Walbro 255lph pump, which a lot of ultra 4 rigs seem to have luck with. I figure since most of them have significantly more motor than I do, it should work fine for me.
Also finished up the B-pillar X and test fit the firewall and fuel cell.
Its getting close..

Nice location, you gonna build a bed for cargo space (you may already have and I wasn't paying attention).

Re: YJ goes under the knife
Looking good, are going going to put the expanded steel floor back in after you finalize fuel cell mount? Are going to put the roof on for Windrock

Re: YJ goes under the knife
I have a perforated steel floor setup for it now, but I will likely change it a little bit now that the cell is there taking up so much space.CJonLP wrote:Nice location, you gonna build a bed for cargo space (you may already have and I wasn't paying attention).

See above, and yeah, definitely going for the roof. All the mounts are ready, just needs to be trimmed/formed/drilled and bolted down

Re: YJ goes under the knife
I like the dual B-pillar X with separate fancy pants harness bar. I think you should leave it like that since the cage was strong enough to hold up to a hard roll before adding the additional strength.

Re: YJ goes under the knife
the x will definitely help with lateral stability.
Is your fuel cell an RCI 2161?

Yes sir it is. I used to run a standard 16 gallon squre with a sump but switched to the 2161 to free up some space.
got the mount for the cell but together tonight.

Re: YJ goes under the knife
Finished fuel cell set up. Cooler and action packer fit great.

Shameless copy of fuel cell mount design and vent cutoff ball valve on my part.
