Drove it and enjoyed coolant free air!!! I was so worried my heater core was toast and the smell was getting real bad. Luckily the upper radiator hose was just loose!!!! So happy that's one less ****y job to do

Speaking of coolant, I was checking fluids and realized I have none. My coolant reservoir is bone dry. There was just enough buildup on the side to make it look like it was between FULL and ADD, but I have no idea how long it's been like that. At least I haven't exploded yet.

Trying to wire in the electric fan and figuring out where to run the wires so it looks somewhat neat. Discovered that it cools just fine with the 12 inch electric in the winter in MN : )

Added coolant, so now I'm good. About to PB everything for the third time today, prepping for lift.

Counted up all of my leaks. Valve cover gasket, pan gasket, oil filter adapter, power steering, trans cooler lines, and the new D30 Pinion Seal leak.

Fell more in love with it while changing plugs in my dad's Camry next to it in the driveway. Total pain, and found two plugs COVERED in oil.

I'm glad I do... I spent three weeks in the hospital last summer and a few more after that in a full body brace. I can finally lift 20 twenty pounds. Doing good, but have a long road to go still. He wouldn't hear of me taking the ZJ to a shop. If I could do it myself, he'd just as likely been sitting here drinking my beer and hiding wrenches from me. Good friends. Can't beat 'em.
