Maybe I just have bad luck but out of the 3 times I've used the permatex rear view mirror adhesive it has failed twice. I'm sure i could go to a glass place and have them put it on for me and have no worries but the Loctite has been good so far. And as for the rear view being on the dash for the next owner...unpossible...i'm the last owner of this rig!

Had all the dents(paintless dent repair) taken out of my XJ for $75.... She is perfect now. I'm glad it's not 4wd because then I would be to tempted go offroading resulting in scratches and dents... And buy more stuff I don't need(lift, 33s, etc), but I still want a locker lol

I put a new fan clutch on, I added a few LEDs to my dash two for switches and one for climate control, I put a decal on and took it for a little spin in the mud just to make sure the fan clutch was working alright. Haha Oh yeah and I washed it.

Have you done a right up/do you have a link to one on the LEDs? They look awesome.

Had a tail light mounting nut break off a while back, welded on a new nut.

Wired in two tail light sockets to finish out my 2500 quad tail lights.

Thanks, I used led 360 degrees 6500k white bulbs off ebay for my gauges, I also used LEDs in my switches and climate control (second link). My gauges have whiteface gauge overlays so that makes them brighter than if they were stock black.

I have the front axle almost completely detached from my rig. Only thing holding it on is the track bar and the drag link. I'm plowing through a control arm bushing replacement and the upper arm was giving me fits on trying to line it back up. Just have to replace driver side upper bushings then put it all back together.

Changed my fan clutch as well I just ran into some problems with getting it on because it's bigger than the stock unit an my radiator seems to be a little bigger as well but all is well now but no fan shroud cause by The Hammer of Thor it was a pain to get off and since everything is bigger it's just gonna lay in the garage. Today is an oil change cause I finally hit 170K

Drove her through all the snow to Akron yesterday. The new duratracs are hands down the best tire I've ever driven in snow.

Just out of curiosity... the "loctite" that you used... is it for rearview mirros? 'Cause I know they make an adhesive for mirrors and I think the confusion is that people think you're just talking about loctite for screws
