“Perfection is the enemy of done”
-my friend, Walter
This has been a lengthy project full of opportunities to widen my skillset and I’m having a blast- but my friend’s words echo in my ear every time I notice something that could be a bit better. There will be time after the jeep is running again to polish the little things. I’m committed to getting it done and I’d rather be ugly and done than perfect, unfinished, sitting on jack stands. Here’s to following through and achieving your goals!

Building jeeps isn’t all big tires and long arms- sometimes it’s getting creative with the little things. Here’s a mock up of an ABS module mount I made to account for the lost plastics in the engine bay. 14” coilovers take up a lot of space.

Sometimes we let the smallest hurdles take up the most time.
Transmission cooler hard lines interfere with my front stretch so they had to go. I think something like this will do.

Sorting out some engine bay stuff this weekend- all the factory mounts for battery, fuse box, washer fluid, abs, etc interfered with the coilover towers so I’m building lower profile steel brackets to hold everything. This will be the ABS module bracket after a trip to

Making slow progress on the 1 ton swap for Stubby. It’s been an eventful winter but I was happy to find the time and get this piece done. I’m expecting the project to get a lot more fun from here. If you know, you know. #2005

I lost my father in 2019, the same year I married Emily and in a way began my new Colorado life. It still breaks my heart when I realize I can’t share accomplishments and milestones with my dad, or seek his advice on a problem I’m facing. I’d give anything to spend an afternoon fishing with my old man. I’d bring him out to Colorado and share with him the beauty I get to see every day. We’d discuss business and how silly politics are getting. He was an impressive man and I didn’t tell him nearly enough how much he meant to me, how much he inspired me, or how much I loved him.

Call your dad if you still can and Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!
