Changed oil and filter. Usually run a Napa Gold filter but thought I'd try a Mopar filter as I've been getting dry starts in the mornings lately.

Wix filters are among the best apparently, running one for the first time after always running Fram, no issues!

Discovered that my grill was actually mounted upside down (probably by the PO and explains why the headlight bezels and grill just didn't appear to mesh correctly). Managed to get the old fog lights off without removing the bumper and flipped the grill over.
I had already bought new fog lights and had every intention of replacing them after I got the old ones off but, I like the way it looks better without them so I'm going to look for something low profile, that I can mount to the bottom side of the bumper.

Flushed out the cooling system and heater core...Now my heater blows nice and warm Also the jeep had an L7 with a huge box that took up a lot of cargo space, so i swapped the 12's out of my car so now my jeep has more cargo room to fit all my stuff.

Changed brakes for the first time, rotors were seized on and a real PIA! They took alot of convincing. This was my first attempt at brakes so I almost gave up but they finally came off! Change calipers, pads, rear shoes and hardware. I went pretty well, pedal feels a little spongy so I will probably bleed them again tomorrow.
