I told her I loved her. Also enjoyed a nice lil night drive.
I raced a nicely lifted GC, although I think he was jus driving fast . THB I just like opening my girl up when it's safe and hear the engine roar

New HD leafs arrived at the shop for installation tomorrow.
PB Blaster'ed all spring and axle nuts & bolts.
I found the most likely source of a maddening thumping underneath when driving: worn out transmission mount.
Either that, or something a bit more fun/difficult/expensive.
I dropped $30 on it and hope that it solves it.
I PB's the nuts on my crossmember and trans mount to prep for installation tomorrow.
Re-wired my Hella 550 driving lights which have been shorting out.
It was too cold to get the electrical tape to hold well, so a redo will be very soon.
I have a 350 mile drive as soon as my springs are in tomorrow, so I'll find out how I like them by the end of the day for sure.

New tires. 31" Definity Dakato AT/2 (yeah...I gave up on the BFs, but the price difference was too high compared to what I paid). Had the front alignment done too...took them forever...worth the $60
The drive is getting better and better. It's still a Jeep of course...so going from a Subaru to this is an adjustment (My subaru was awesome...even on many off-roads). First time I got it upto 70mph +/- and NO DEATH WOBBLE. Just some vibs (U-Joints...those are next).
I'm iimpressed with the power...maybe my lower block (engine) isn't bad. My luck can't be that good though...it never let's me get away with anything but the worst.
