Found a guy in town to do my alignment, he is an old retired mechanic who must have come into money because he has a major mechanical compound that he builds mustangs out of, the shop was on his property with his home set way back in the woods, it was the ultimate man dream.

New tires will be in tomorrow so I don't have to be terrified of the one in the picture letting go, $600 mistake I won't be making again...

Pulled out the old booster/master to get ready to put in a 96 dual diaphragm and ae350 master.

What's an ae350? While you've got it apart, can you see any reason the original (pre-96) master cylinder wouldn't work with that booster?

That's the exact reason I got it, I used to have one in my old Tj.. Never let me down, even with a days worth of heavy winching.

Found out that installing 235's on a Jeep with sagging rear leaf springs was maybe not a great idea without removing the stock fender flares.

Driving down the road today, hit a bump, heard the rear tires hit the top of the wheel well, got to work and found the passenger side fender flare hanging on by the bolt. Walked into the shop, grabbed a couple 3" tech screws and ran them through the fender flare to hold it in place until I get the money to buy better flares. (Just bought new rear suspension and a budget lift)... LOL

Put my 31s on the front because 1 of the 33s was flat. Was gonna do the rears 31s but if of them was flat. Then got it towed to my house. Hopefully going this weekend to get window regulators. My 33 was leaking 11 spots on the front bead and 4 in the back. (Stepdads old tires) pulled the tire off and had mud and sticks in the bead. I pumped up the 31 and its holing air so idk about that.
