Any loose steering component to blame?
So, where to this weekend?
(though I'm _hopefully_ "out" for this weekend - potential ultralight buyer traveling from KS to pick it up/buy it)
Not this time around, for me being a northerner, but I could see a trip in warm weather, made into a multi-day trek down that way - area trails with the offroad park. Take pix and let us know how it...

Things seem slow this morning 10a - I'll check with the host...
One for James...
Fab Rats bought an Willys wagon to work on...

A somewhat common issue at Ironclads too (not risky either - good fun!).
I don't think I could modify it. I think is should stay as-is.
Wrap it in wet paper towel and nuke!

If they look for volunteers to help with work - I'd be interested.
Beautiful area
I have ridden my bike next to that old wooden water pipe - that is still in use to move water from Lake Agnes (a nice destination / shortish hike) to Fort Collins as part of the...
Are you certain as to saying pump running in ACC vs RUN?
I think ACC should have no fuel pump power. When turned to RUN from OFF/ACC, my fuel pump turns on for a few seconds and then shuts down. ...
Was it running before he changed the fuel pump?
My guess, he wasn't looking to price it like a "new" system. I think he was trying to find that very small market who'd be interested in such a novelty vehicle (old, but ?like new?).
Yep. Garaged so little to no UV damage. Clean, yes. Undercarriage pic looked nice (clean).
I'm not a truck person - though I agree - meh
Yes. That's what Google Maps calculates for distance based on the campsite locations and route Matt is looking to travel.
I'll bring extra fuel (2.5gal cans - one or two will be with me). I'll...
And you're welcome to borrow it - any time.
EDIT: I should probably say - I'll sell it now.
While it's a nice cooler (I appreciate having good tools at the ready), I don't expect to use it....
What make / model?
Single start battery for the jeep. I do have a 12vDC "jump starter" which takes third place behind #2... Wheeling with friends (and either jumper cables or a pull start)....
Last summer I purchased a Blue 30 qt ice chest "starter kit" in the color white. They tout longer ice retention than Yeti coolers. My reaction - nice cooler - but man does it take up some real estate...
Hmmm... Do you have a photo? I might be interested.
When (what time of day) do you wish to meet at Hanksville?
I'm debating a day in Moab (Moab to Hanksville 1h45m drive) or possibly overnighting at Goblin Valley State Park (Google Map) north of...
Matt, what's your general thought for the trip?
1) Drive from site to site, sure!
2) Any short / long sites or attractions to be seen?
3) Take it easy and kick about the campsite and in general...
How was the new top? Rattles / nicely quiet?
What model of Toyota is that?
From the listing of campsites, this is the route it looks like Matt has in mind (start and end is Hanksville for fuel - traveling counter-clockwise):
