Did the best I possibly could to bedline the trim and such. For being 16 and never bedlined anything I think I did a good job and hope it drys well. I hope you guys like it. It was previously gold now its black

New motor mount on my xj, new track bar on my buddy's and new transfer case on another buddy's. Then we went out and did some night wheeling and my track bar decided to start popping

Installed a pair of '94 ZJ front seats that I bought for $63 off of Craigslist. Pretty simple install; bolt on, bolt off. Took about half an hour per seat, as I was only working with hand tools. I have to say, they're significantly more comfortable. Funny how I never really considered upgrading the seats, but the opportunity came up and now I'm pretty happy about it!

Obviously, this is halfway through the swap so you can see the physical differences between the two.
