Those are cheap to replace. The strainers are only a few bucks.

Replacing oil pan.

After I strained my knuckles and took an hour to remove the old pan. It was too bent for me to fix.

New Sprectra Premium from Advance Auto:

59$ with a promo code. Ordered online and picked up. What a deal!

Got all the water I can out and removed the rear quarters drain plugs. Boy the drivers side was full. Took it for a warm up and checked the fluids. She's all ready for tomorrow's road trip. Here's some photos of how tight it is in my garage

Haven't posted in a few days, but Wednesday and Thursday I slapped some more primer on my front passenger floor and seat brace, cleaned up rust elsewhere and primed it, then reassembled the interior just in time for the Christmas driving. Got a lot of work left to do. Before putting the carpet back on to-be-repaired spots I wire wheeled and primed then slapped down some rubber mat... there's now rubber in the cargo area and under every passenger's feet (driver's too). I think it's actually quieter now lol. Quite the change from being able to hear valve train noise all the time

lol yup looks familiar. Rear floor is okayish in mine, at least from the top, looks like the rear quarter panels are rusted out under the bumper caps (surprise surprise)

Haha some people after hearing about my problems and the work I've put into it (which is nothing compared to a lot of folks here) just say "Why don't you get a new Jeep with no rust?". After berating whatever the **** Chrysler thinks the WK2 is supposed to be I tell them about the JK's problems lol... bad trans after 6000km, radiator blowing up, Chrysler wiring problems, cat dies after 4 years, rust after 3... junk!



Also can the "ban-me-now" retards who keep bringing up illegal catalytic converter removal keep their **** out of this thread? You already trolled another one for like two pages last week or so.

Tried to straighten my bumper a little. And ripped two bolts through the bumper. So I just took the bumper and brackets off. Broke two bolts after taking a lot of care not too.
