Drove around to do some errands. Washed it in town... it was dirty from my hunting escapades, and even though it was raining, little came off.

Unfortunately the drive home threw more crap on the Jeep. Oh well.

And Im glad people can still see my blinkers. As I have installed my clear lenses.

Replaced my shock bushings, went fairly easy since the old ones pretty much fail off. Also put on a new radiator cap.

The LED plate is from one of those LED floodlights, that have a battery inside them and a solar cell.

I just took the plate with leds, rearranged the leds to work with 12V instead of 6V and took off the plastic lens of the ceiling light(I don't have the full headliner console), and soldered the wires to the bulb connectors.
It doesn't look exactly elegant, but neither does my Jeep

They sold the light at a local supermarket, but.. well.. I live in Estonia

Ripped all the side moldings off (two were in the hatch area when i bought it). Looks MUCH better without it IMHO. Especially since my XJ is Moss Green Pearl and the Sport moldings had a red stripe that ran the length of it. No red anywhere else on the whole thing. Looked like a Christmas XJ.
ALSO, scored a sweet deal on a set of four 4 98-01 Cherokee Sport OEM aluminum wheels with 4 30% worn 235/75 15's from Craigslist. $150, he lived 80 miles from me-woulda cost $40 or so to go get em in the XJ, but he offered to deliver them. The tires/wheels were $140 + $10 gas money/delivery fee SCORE! They are showing up at my work just in time for me to punch out and toss em on. Hate factory steel wheels!

I put a cherry bomb glasspack on my jeep today. I have a straight 6 so my factory muffler just wasnt aggressive enough. I would have minded alittle more rumble but its definatley a step up.
