What did you do to your jeep today?

Installed a new shifter-- Smith & Wesson 44. hand grip:biggun::icon_biggrin:

Tinted my turn signals and corner markers.

Installed a Ironman lift on Daryl (501 from Indiana on LOSTs KJ) No picture of his yet will get some tomorrow
had a couple of other friends over as well
Had the opportunity to meet 2BobsKJ wish I'd more time to talk to him!

Went for a nice burn down the freeway and filled up with lower priced fuel.
66 liters @ $123.0 per liter= $81.18
A block down the street it's $1.50 per liter. Would of cost us $99.00.
Saved $17.82 on the fill up!
Mind you that won't even buy a 12 pack of beer here!

bedlining the front grill today. here is a pic just the 2nd coat still drying.
also a pic of the shifter I put in last night

Grill-2nd Coat


Shifter





I will ad another when I put the grill back on, I have 1 or 2 more coats to do:smokin:

Replaced lower ball joint on passenger side after boot was ripped. Last week I started hearing a squeak/groan when turning wheels left or right. Went underneath and saw right LBJ boot ripped and grease gone. Shot it with some lithium to get thru the week then replaced it yesterday. About $30 from RockAuto.

Also plugged a slow leak from a nail I picked up on Friday. Stuff happens in threes so waiting for one more thing to break before end of the weekend!

Today I sent Mr. Darcy to work with Jason but yesterday we sent a bottle of SeaFoam through and smoked out the yard!

took some scrap steel that i had to make a roof mount tire rack

That tire up top will cost a few miles per gallon...

Hey, it's all good! Who'd a thunk we'd have to replace a brake line AND a rear shock bolt! :happy175:

Great to meet you all - let's meet in NE Ohio next!

P.S. I like the black KJ the best (you decide which one I'm talking about arty52: )

Nope, the Rev was out at the local NAPA picking up the brake line when the rear shock bolt broke - he's still worthy! :worthy:

But word to the wise: Wash the underside of your Jeep every time you wash the topside. It ain't pretty when you have to break out the torch to put the lift on... :happy175:

Holy crap .. now that is funny ... Not the snapped bolt part, believe me I just dealt with it 2 weeks ago! ... but the fact that he was not there.

Got an after lift alignment.$70.
Ordered full mopar skids,and trans pan.(looking pretty crusty)
Got some black paint for my roof basket.
Beat around some back roads for 100 kms or so.( I sit higher in the drivers seat now than in my Dakota 4x4) :happy175:

Finally decided on the "In Channel" wind deflectors and very happy with them. They fit well and do what they say on the tin. Nice cut outs near mirrors for visibility and for when the mirrors fold back. The only thing that let them down was the self adhesive strips on them were a bit poo but a few blobs of black silicone along the top made them good and secure. Happy Bunny! :smokin:

Got y baby to school today. that's all. Can't wait for next summer tu get it in the wood again

Finished wiring in my electronic brake controller today.
