I screamed at my XJ today! Damn radiator started to leak! At least they are fairly cheap. So now, I need new rear springs, a radiator, and some offset rims. I guess it is true:
"J"ust "E"mpty "E"very "P"ocket!
However, I am still not trading my Jeep for anything!

Got in a little bit of a fight with her the other night when I was trying to replace my battery. I had a minor mental breakdown in the Advance Auto parking lot, threw my ratchet at my hood, and started kicking the **** out of my rocker. It's all good, though, cause the underside of my hood is already rusted, and I have body damage on the side I was kicking.

I am not as bad as my older brother, though: He had a piston ring break and damn near cut his thumb off, so what does he do? He punches the 350 Chevy he was rebuilding! He only needed 5 stitches for his thumb, but require around 10 for the first 2 knuckles and fingers on his right hand! I ended up rebuilding the thing, since he could not use his right hand for about a month!

Being from Battle Creek, Michigan, it is always better to do that route with about 1.5ft of fresh snow on the ground 
Which way are you going? You going through Wisconsin and down I94 or through the U.P.? I know it is about 100-miles farther going through the U.P., but man it is pretty this time of year!

I drove al the way to Napa to be told they dont sell leaf shackles

Go to rusty's. You can get real nice ones. With or without a lift. Very beefy.
