Got my freshly bedlined front bumper back on, added cheapie lights to it ($13 Princess Auto H3 specials... booya), wiring harness for them is sort of in. Have yet to reattach the bumper caps and do up the rest of the wiring for the lights.

Thanks!
It definitely does, and is stupid easy to do! This was the first time I've used a clay bar and I was really surprised at how much more dirt and grime it got off even after washing really well.

Did a compression test on her before I decide to drop money into suspension goodies...135-150 range across the board so I'm quite happy with my purchase

The connector at the firewall was to big. Ended up breaking one of the tabs off. But it's possible they got me the wrong one. They got me another and it was the same. A little convincing and I made it fit no problem.

Alright thanks for letting me know, I'll have to watch out for that. What did you end up doing? Just sanding it down a bit or increase the hole in the firewall?

I just opened the hole a little with a screwdriver and pinched the tabs with some needlenose as I pushed it in. Very snug fit. The length is fine and everything else connected with no problem. It's been working great so if that's the only problem I had, I can't complain.

Passed California smog. Left the paper in the car, but everything was WAY low. 93' ZJ 5.2 with 77,000 miles on it. And a couple bolt on mods.
yesterday...some mid life crisis guy in a X5 decides I'm driving too slow for him then floors it and pulls around then pulls back around in front of me with no signal... Not sure if the X5 has a tuned exhaust or what exact model it was...sounded like a Borla.
After that...the favor may or may not have been returned. But if it was, I bet he wasn't able to keep up. Probably his idrive got stuck turning on the wipers when he tried to swap to Sport.

Bought new plugs for my tranny. FYI they are now discontinued so if you need them, get them quick. Also, as i found out, the gaskets are sold separately so don't forget to get them too.
