I took the nuts off my '14 JKU back in '15 and never put them back on. I just traded the Wrangler last month, and until reading this post, hadn't even realized they're still in the garage. The thing I noticed was a small amount of sludge/dirt/grease build-up around where the male/female hinges...
We'll see how it goes.
At this point it's nothing more than the name "Scout", since IH isn't actually building it. I'm a fan of the IH Scout, in fact I used its manual locking hubs on my 51 M38 restoration. Those old Scouts were very functional, I remember being pulled out of a real...
My wife learned real fast (back when we were dating 25 yrs ago), don't ask such a question unless you really want to hear it. Basically I won't lie to or for anyone.

Wow, great pictures!! But damn, bro, you've got a mess on your hands. Personally, I'd start over, sell the truck, and consider this a lesson learned. Smells are not easy to "eliminate" and honestly you'll be lucky if you can even "cover" it.
While I've never had to deal with rotten whale meat...
Sweet looking dash and wheel. I'm probably going to jump over to eBay and get one of those wheels, not a big fan of that red centering bar, but it should match the Rubicon red/dash pretty well. Thanks for sharing these.
