Got a transfer case drop installed. NO MORE VIBES. Now, I am waiting on my income tax refund to get 3" springs for the front (rear is sitting at 3.5" and front is 2.5"). I am also getting a winch bumper and a winch. All ready got the rear springs nice and broke in; damn things were only supposed to be 2.5" springs, but were slightly over 4" -- settled to, again, 3.5". By the way, Fat Bob's leafs flex like a boneless hooker! I don't know what the RTI score would be, but I had it in the mountains today, and had the front tire 26" off the ground before the rear came up. It has MUCH better flex than it did when I had stock springs with blocks.

I remember walking over the bridge to the ball stadium in 1976 to see the Reds play as a kid. Still have the Pepsi bottles that say Cincinnati(sp) Reds World Champs 1975. Think they played the Pirates when I saw them. I remember asking my uncle one nite while watching a Bengles game what number Pete Rose was !!! LOL!!! Didn't know that football and baserball had different players.
I am also from cincy. Lol

Cleaned the interior after I installed a WJ auto dimming mirror. I used the high heat adhesive at the parts stores, didnt work. So now its on with Loctite 401. Looks much nicer than the OEM XJ mirror, lets see how it works.

I was having some high idle issues so I removed my coolant temperature sensor, crankshaft position sensor cleaned them up and I'm good to go

not 3 bucks a tire, but stilla good deal - especially for having it done at 630 in the evening after I got off of work

**for today's "What did you to to your jeep today**

The glass man should be finishing up on my windshield on my house as we speak... unfortunately I had to work today otherwise I would have painted my dash black while the windshield was off

The "rearview mirror adhesive" at the parts store is the ONLY thing that will hold the mirror on
Trust me.
U can try concrete or a welder if ya want
But in the end, you will buy the $4 mirror adhesive or ur mirror will sit on your dash for the next owner. lol

x2... consider it a conspiracy... some bigshot at the mirror button company got together with some bigshot at the glass company and decided that they would engineer both so that you would have to use a certain type of adhesive... but just a small step in their dastardly plan for worldwide takeover!
