Cussed at it mostly. Who would have thought that it was that hard to install a new front bumper. Got the old one off after messing around with a broken bolt mount, started to put the brackets for the new smittybuilt XRC front bumper on, found out while removing the steering gear box that the spacer was broke in a dozen places (how does that happen?) found enough washers to replace said spacer, now I can't get the bolt holes to line back up.


Ahh jeep gods... Did I not sacrifice a big enough import? Please smile kindly on me. I wanted to go to the badlands today

Pull your carpet out! It almost immediately cured the musty smell in mine
