That stupidity will spread, she took what she was told as fact, and now thinks she knows. She will continue on, and tell these "facts" to others, and thus, spread the stupidity

Hey yall, I was in contact with you for a few days about a month ago, then abruptly stopped. The reason for this is that my transmission took a dump, and I was really busy with work (two real jobs and two side-job careers), so I have just now gotten to fixing it.
Basically, the throwout bearing needs to be replaced. I bought a LuK clutch kit and am now tearing the transmission down. This is the job from hell Most bolts are inaccessible and stuck...
Anyway, just popping back in to say hello and that I'm still alive. I promised you guys pics of my magenta two door stick shift, so here they are:
Day I bought her
New wheels and tires
And here she is carpet and seatless (today)
Mopar fun

Nothing major, a woman was asking a guy about servicing her car, and about it being in the shop. She has a Mini Cooper. He was telling her some of the reasons the repair bill was so expensive. Stuff like the power steering fluid has to be imported cause her car is foreign. That the rear sway bar makes it difficult for an alignment. Rims from a rear wheel drive car will not fit on a front wheel drive. And more, I started listening after the conversation started, about 10-15 minutes into it, I walked away.

We had to cut out almost my whole exhaust system. That was the first day's problem. Today, the issue was getting those two E12 bolts on the top of the transmission. Now we're trying to get the damn thing separated from the engine. We made a lot of progress today, though. We have about 9 hours into it and almost have it dropped, and the interior is gutted. Gonna weld up some new floor pieces after the transmission is done. The guy who's helping me is a fellow XJ owner who's really big on Cherokees as well, so it's not too bad doing it since we're both having fun. His needs work as well, which is going to be next week I presume haha.

Only big issue I had was the inner "sleeve" of the pilot bearing became stuck, took a couple hours and r&d with some homemade tools to get it out
That, and after replacing everything but the pedal itself, having the pedal break in half on me, and being stuck in first gear during rush hour traffiic
