Dealer, only problem there is, our parents, grandparents, great grandparents, etc. depending on how old ya are, fought way too damned hard to repeal prohibition for me to drink that accursed LIGHT beer!:thumbsdown:

Real Beer![emoji14]arty52:

I came home from work one day, and it was sitting on the porch with a note taped to it. "Sorry for drinking all of your beer, I'm an ******* when I'm drunk. P.S.- I borrowed a pair of boxes, I'll return them tomorrow while your at work.
- Jody


My buddy's name is Jody lol. He came over one Saturday to watch football and next the I know he done drank all my beer. He had at least 15 beer before he passed out. He was gonna sleeping on the couch and right as I was going to bed, he got up and pissed on one of those decorative trees that was in the corner. Can't take that fool nowhere.

Dang, I missed the snow stories:favorites68:
I slid the semi backwards down a hill on black ice one night. Stopped an inch from the guardrail, on the wrong side of the road, still straight!
Westbound out of Columbus OH, mirror brackets icing up, saw several cars already in the median at a bridge, slowed down and popped 4-ways on. Jacked up Toyota 4x4 on oversize tires found out he wasn't the greatest ice driver! Flew past me, hit the bridge, both sides:happy175:, and stopped in the median.
Heck I got a ton of 'em!

I was in Fairbanks in August, real nice town.

I live just north of Meadsville PA. (actually spelled Meadville:gr_grin:)

And I got a little new puppy. Rotweiller Spaniel mix.

He prolly figured no harm done. Bud Light is the same coming out as it was going in. :happy175:

Almost drove it to work today. Started it up and snap crackle pop pop pop! Flashing CEL and P0302. Best case: dropped a rocker again (has happened twice before but not in a couple years). Worst case dropped a valve seat and it's FUBAR. I'll take the cover off on Saturday and find out.

For Winter preparation with roof basket off, I finally got a coat of wax up on the roof again.

Could not find my clay bar kit, so next spring that has to be done with another coat of wax.
Even with a good waxing, you can feel the grit in paint up top.

Edit: Also cleaned up the fan shroud/blades.

Amazing how dirty it can get in there.

New shoes!

Got the girl some new rubber put under her. I got some BF Goodrich All Terrain KO2's. I stayed with the stock size because I didn't want there to be any rubbing. They look great and ride so much better!

Good luck with what you find. Sometimes, flown rocker arms are caused by a dropping valve seat. The arms generally don't fly off just for the hell of it.

Agreed this shouldn't happen for no reason but it has done this twice about two years ago and those two times were within about 6-8 months of each other. I did overheat it about three years back and have done the HGs since then. Machine shop resurfaced, cleaned and inspected the heads but did not replace the seats (my bad). So the valve seat is what I'm afraid of this time. Always #2 exhaust. Sounds the same this time. Last time I bought a couple lash adjusters to put in if it happened again so here's my opportunity. Hopefully the rocker fell harmlessly out of the way. I'll report back Saturday PM.

Drove to work, parked, was at 67,000 miles on the dot. The day went downhill after that.

Hi LibertyTC
I notice and didn't know Meguiar's have Jeep Cristal System Carnauba Wax. Exclusive for jeep only. I just kidding. Cheer!
That red bottle is many years old, still I really like the carnauba wax. :party52:
Proper prep includes using a clay bar & detailer/cleaner then onto wax.
I do the work by hand, no buffers are used here. :gr_grin:
Meguiar's has new carnauba products.

Filled her up at the gas store for $1.89/gal, then filled her up at the beer store.
