My wish list is getting smaller and my dream pile is getting bigger :)
OME springs and shocks(ordered) and hockey pucks left to go.

Looks like the Jeep Gift Elf made a visit to your house! :smokin:

Will look even better installed. Are you going crazy waiting on the UPS driver to show up with the OME box?

Ordered springs/shocks through OUIPack/ARB Canada.
They don't stock them, so 7-14 days(5 passed so far) for them to get in warehouse and then ship to me.
Was going to order through JBA(where I got the UCA,top plate and bump stops)
But got shagged hard by UPS for shipping/brockerage/crossborder fees.

Good news is with the NHL lockout there should be a glut of hockey pucks :happy175:

Thanks guys!

Plasti-dipped the antenna last night.

Going to get the undercarriage washed today and give it a good coat of bedliner. Will use Rusto High Heat paint on the exhaust parts.

Looking into replacing the front tow hooks with D-rings, just need to figure out the best way to go about it.

Replaced the CV joint on my front drive shaft. The old one had developed some play and was full of grime from a ripped boot.

yup...that's what I'll be doing as soon as my new CV gets here :disgust: ...shipped today.

Over the weekend I painted my bumpers, fender flares, and trim with POR15 bed liner...they are very shiny! I was expecting more of a rhino-liner dull textured finish...but still looks pretty sweet. Doesn't even look like plastic anymore. I'll get around to taking pics one of these days.

Seems like I've found a lot of people on here and LOST replacing their front drive shaft CVs lately (myself included.) Has anyone else noticed that when you have a problem with your Jeep, there are lots of other people having the same problem at the same time?

Or is it just me...

I dont know how many times I read something on here and say "I should probably check that." And what do you know? Mines broken too.:disgust:

here's my paint job from over the weekend....as I said, a little shinier than I expected lol. But it definitely looks better than the previous sun faded black/gray.

Drove 3000 miles in 5 days

Well, took the plunge and just up and moved to the west coast, From florida.
My Libbypuled it of without as much as a hiccup. My gas mileage ranged from 14 to 23 pulling a trailer. 14 was with strong headwinds. all in all it was a great trip.

I did stop every half tank to refuel and checked the MPGs.
