Took the doors off for probably the last time in very long time, since it was 70 degrees in NC.

I ordered two of the relays and a dual socket that is now just going to sit at home until i get some use for them.

Anyways, door locks work great now. I am doing my 4.5 clayton long arm lift tonight!!
I, for one, am interested. This breathes new life into the actuators?

I'm interested too....




Barely made it to the gas station this morning. This workin' 7 days a week stuff is really putting a strain on my distance to empty. Filled her up - 20 gal tank and it took 19.6 gallons... that half a gallon was just sloshing back and forth past the fuel pickup. Made the fuel pump howl a lot. MAN I hate doin' that.

Washed the windshield and used it to jump start the dd. If I didn't have to haul so many people I woulda took the comanche on the road trip. Curse bucket seats.

Picked up a new pinion seal and have a new exhaust hanger coming in this afternoon. Also I let my Cherokee keep another Cherokee company for a while.

Took a badge off of one sitting in a jy. To replace my sticker that says 4.0 inside. I'm taking off a sticker, but adding a badge? What type of hp should I expect from this?

Badges are rated to 100hp. But, that depends on your paint color.
