Installed a new rear upper control arm and reinstalled the recently blasted and powdercoated trailer hitch.

Drove the Jeep's ****** to and from mom's house in the back of my Astro, but not because of Mother's Day. We celebrated my dad's 80th birthday Saturday.

Back when I was changing my diff fluid 2 ducks waddled under my Jeep, then the female took a little nap.

Most people wouldn't consider those as "street" tires:rofl:

Yeah one advantage of working for Bridgestone/Firestone,as for the rims they will be the exact same ones I have now just 16".If Bridgstone had a MT tire in that size I would have gotten even a better deal.

Yeah not going to be running a AT tire.

Just ordered my Ironman springs and JBA spacer plates and I have one thing to tell everyone. Marlin is indeed a very good man, as I called late not thinking about the time difference and he answered on the second ring and helped me with my order. It is getting to be very uncommon to have service of that level at any business. Looking forward to getting everything together and installed. If a company has service like this you most likely have no worries about the product or the customer service.

Oil change - check.
Grease ball joints - check.
Topped off some fluids - check.
Washed it - check.

Can't really drive it till Aaron comes home from his rally with the van and almost all the tools... so I can do the brake job next. :disgust:

He specifically has the brake bleeding stuff with him. I have enough of my own tools to do the rest of it, and can't see going out and getting another set of something we already have. Fortunately, I don't have to go too far this week/weekend... I've been using his green van in the meantime. :emotions34:

Ahhh….don't know why he has the brake bleeding equipment in Grumpy, but ok. How's Green running?

Noticed a 12" crack in the windshield while washing her... scheduled a appointment for new glass on Monday. I had a small nick at the base of the windshield and the 80 degree weather and sun must have split it.

Green is fine. I guess he's having an issue with coolant loss in Grumpy on the rally right now. It's not overheating, but they need to continually top off the coolant. He's sort of searching junkyards on his route for a replacement. That's the last I've heard. They're in Alabama somewhere now.

Oh, ugh. Has he done the LIM gasket on Grumpy yet or is this a head/head gasket issue?

What a pain...
