R.J.'s Elite Navajo Registry.... I Think It's About Time

[R.J.]

your friend doesn't want it anymore? I should come up, run the rubicon, then sell it to him @mounty71

 

[mounty71]

No I tried to get a couple of different guys to check it out but I guess nothing ever happened. But ya, hold onto it and bring it up next year!

 

[R.J.]

Since photobucket decided it wants to be the worst photo hosting site possible, I'll upload some pictures from today.

Yet another impromptu run through cleghorn.

Gonna try to go to the Rubicon trail with this next month. Thinking about it is what inspired me to take out this afternoon.

 

[R.J.]

And as far as selling it.... I still want to. But I've looked at getting a tow vehicle, but anything that could tow it would be a very impractical car for anything other than towing. Especially on my budget (not much)

If I could afford to get an ecoboost F150, I would keep the Navajo and sell the bronco ii

it's ready enough as it is. Are you gonna be ready? I still have to check with work if i can get the weekend off.

 

[mounty71]

Yup I think so, I don't have much left to do other than get some miles under its belt.

 

[R.J.]

Love the long travel ttb. But not happy with the rig. What to do with this thing.

 

[WormsExplorer]

Whats wrong with it?

Just drop it off at my place so you don't have to worry anymore

changed the shocks in the rear. Noticeably better. They're a little short for my setup, but work good. So I'll have to change the mounts to suit the length better.

 

[WormsExplorer]

Looks great

 

[mounty71]

I like that you're working on this thing again.

 

[R.J.]

Hydrolocked the engine today at Azusa canyon. I'll the pull the spark plugs tomorrow and see if she still lives.

 

[WormsExplorer]

Oh no that sucks

 

[R.J.]

Well it's a sad day here. Pulled the spark plugs, got the water out and started her up and it has a loud knocking sound. So I'm saying my goodbyes. I'm gonna miss this car. Didn't want it to end this way.

What does that mean? Swap in a SOHC

Or drop it off at my place. .. and I'll do it.

I'm not fixing it. I might keep the engine and find a short block for it, and put it in the b2.

But if I was engine swapping the Navajo, I would put a 5.0 in it.

I could drop it off at your house. You want it?

 

[Stic-o]

I have a SOHC for it with a full wiring harness You can have the old motor back for the B2
