I'll run through the story once more really quick, cliff notes version. My best friend from highschool and his dad bought this jeep when he was 16 (10 years ago). Him and is dad built said jeep, I helped after school quite a bit. Fast forward to last year, jeep gets stolen, my buddy and I recover it 1 week later in its current condition. My buddy and my sister start dating, broken jeep ends up at my dads place, I buy, now I fix. I got it home last night with a full box of paper work and receipts on everything that's been done since they bought it.

Yeah, man! I drove it on and off the trailer in 4 low. It's really not going to take much to get it moving. I'm already craigslisting every free minute I have! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
So I attempted to put my buddies winter explorer wheels and tires on just to move the jeep in and out of my carport (that's the wifes parking spot) the fronts fit but the rear axle hub sticks out too far and the expo wheels don't have a big enough opening. Oh well, at least it's sitting up and even and I can get a jack under it now. I also took the steering column apart, looks like I need an entire ignition, and signal switch set up. I should be able to find an entire assembly pretty easily they're about $100-$200 online for the entire column from the firewall back. Tires are priority número one right now.
