Broke my fresh air inlet on the front side of the valve cover. Gotta take off valve cover to get the rest out and new in. Maybe tomorrow.

I've never done it before lol, but yeah that's what I was gonna go for. I might just have a shop do it since I don't have much time to myself now days (Full time student and work, it SUCKS)


But anyways, already pulled the trim in the Jeep, just gotta dismantle the trim around the sunroof and the liners out!

I never realized the trim in the rear was all metal....

Stared at from the five gang at work wishing I had taken the doors off this morning. 67% chance of rain. I'm a firm believer in that the weatherman is the only person paid to be WRONG as usual.

Default Back to 100%

I changed the actuators in the rear doors of the daily driver cherokee. In a true case of design genius it's built into the latch, but I got it done and everything is 100% working now. Finally had time to put on the borla exhaust, afe intake, firepower kit with coil/cap/rotor/wires, new plugs, new brake pads and rotors, oil/filter change, and last but not least fixed the rear hatch so it actually opens. Busy day, but having a perfectly running 99 xj with 101k is nice. Now on to the grand wagoneer build.

Purchased a set of 4 KC lights from a seller on this forum to replace the set stolen out of my TJ that my gf got me for Father's Day (before she finds out the set she bought was stolen). Just opened the Carr light bar she also got me. Obvious question she asks: "You gunna install them tomorrow?" Thank goodness there's rain in the forecast or I'd have no excuse for that answer.

Sycoglitch hasn't paid attention lol. It will fit fine. That filter is on my 1999.



It holds about a quart on its own. Expect to use .5 to .75 qt more than the tiny OE filter.
