I think I safely concluded that my flex plate bolts are the source of my engine rattling at idle. I figured out that it only happens in park or neutral, and the slightest bit of gas makes it go away. I feared for the worst...now to tear into it and confirm my theory.

I never understood just how easy steering stops were to adjust until today. probably one of the quickest things I've done to my Jeep. Thank god for impact wrenches.

The set that goes over e brake will annoy you with cups in it when you'll want to shift into 4th or reverse. Btw nice to see another xj with that color interior. Those are rare here in Cali

Thanks! Definitely don't see many that color. I love it until I'm trying to find replacement panels that match.

I discovered that my 2 week old windshield has a 6" long crack in it. The glass is covered under warranty but I have to pay labor. It cracked right at the top left corner I am wondering if it was not installed properly. If that's the case I am going to dispute the charges since there were no rock chips or anything on it.

Detailed the interior, tore my center console apart and found the boot on my gear lever is torn badly. Then fixed the speaker and power lock on my driver door.
