Well, it wasn't today but yesterday I towed with it for the first time. The second load consisted of a range, washer, dryer, refrigerator, deep freezer, and two dressers. I am impressed, It towed it like it wasn't there. I sure noticed it while stopping though! Now i gotta get me a small camper!

Well yesterday I was driving down the road & a big chunk of tree limb got slammed into it by a bushhog mowing about 150 feet away. Received a small dent but if it had hit the glass or a person it would have been ugly. Scared the crapola out of me!

Installed new fuse block and rewired all spotlights, 5 sets, each with its own fuse. Installed a pitman arm and tie rod from a 94 Grand Cherokee. Installed newer injectors from a 93 XJ, They are just a little bigger, we’ll see how that works. Also checked all the Renix sensors and they all tested within parameters.

Wed night a friend and I reinforced my brackets for my roof rack. the week before one broke and another one was cracked.

Then yesterday I did some tune up stuff, replaced; cap, rotor, plugs, and plug wires. Also cleaned out the throttle body. Then while I was doing the 5 tire rotate, I noticed there was some play in one of the front bearings, it was under warranty still so I swapped it out. it was a busy day, but I'm headed out of town this weekend so I needed to get it done.
