I really wish I could justify it man.
266 miles x 2 = 532
532 / 18ish mpg = 30 gallons
30 x $3.35 = $100.50
And itd take 8 hours to do it.

I just aint wanting to put that into it. Its a hell of a deal man.

I agree with that idea. My buddy talked me into running it to the battery. His logic is the body ground will rust out and cause issues. With it on the battery, less of a chance of rust.

I cleaned the center console I got from the junkyard last weekend, and then removed my old one, installed the *new one. it's black instead of the factory peanut butter color. it still looks good given all of the black trim. I was iffy at first, but glad i did it.

oh and I washed it.

Sanded, prepped, and bedlined Mr. Green Jeans' passenger side flares. Going to put all that trim back on tomorrow.

Tossed my old Mopar battery from before the winter into Auberjeep (maybe it's Auberjeans, can't remember). Read 10V but ran out very fast. Guess I'll have to find a charger to put the AC Delco one on.

Got my brakes working. Then promptly took it for its first off road trip with me as its owner. Now I've got grass and mud stuck in the rear bumper caps lol

And drove it to work for the first time.

Headbolt?

I looked at the date and wondered what dealership would be open on the 4th of July, and then realized you're in Canuckistan. Probably closed on Ramadan.

Hub bolt. Rounded one off somewhere around 30 or 40 ft-lbs. Ridiculous price. Gotta wait for the stars to align so I can get to Fastenal while they're actually open. However there's a (very expensive) Dodge dealership next door.

Yes everything closed on Monday here

Said I wasn't going to do anything today but I lied. Ended up pulling out the headliner which actually was not that bad at all. It was sagging to the point of blocking my view. I sort of like it without the headliner so I might take my time to putting some new cloth on it.

I would be elated to only be charged $6.67 per screw. That price is for ONE lol
