Not the place to put this. You'll get better results in the OEM Tech section.

My starter had been dragging and getting sluggish, so I pulled it out and opened it up and degreased everything with that special starter/alternator degrease spray.

popped it back in and its working just like before. AWESOME.

Then I noticed my jeep had been smelling terrible, so I tore out all of the old carpet out of the back, and sure enough it was all mildewy under the carpet, so I let it dry out, and Im gonna coat it with bedliner, I had 20 dollars in Autozone credit, so I got a can of bedliner for 3 bucks. Not bad

actually there was, not super bad, only 4-5 pen sized holes near the latch pin

hopefully the bedliner will help.

Ripped apart the back of my xj to try and fix my turn signal issue...again. Didn't get far, after I finally figure out what is wrong I'm saving up for wheels!

friday I got my superchips programmer, used the mileage xs setting for the drive to Vermont. As I've done this drive countless times, I'd say I used an 1/8 less of the tank plus having my 130lb girlfriend and her bag that was have as heavy as she was, well worth the money.

Had this happen to me once, you gotta remove the headlight bezels and unbolt both latch receivers from underneath. Wasn't exactly fun...
