I can't give up specific beer granted they don't change their recipe. I love Guinness. Even toured their factory. Sam Adams i only drink their ales

Got my wj knuckles from the junkyard off a 2000 and guess I was lucky since the jeep they came off must have went in for a recall and had akebono brake calipers. Grabbed those too for only $68

Soaking brats is about the only thing Sam Adams is good for

Im a craft beer kinda guy. Anyways, been doing alot of little things to the jeep. My heater core started leaking so i bypassed it and the leak proned valve for now. Relocated my vacuum canister to under the flashy new pressure bottle. Replaced all of my coolant lines as well. Ordered a new aux fan, mine sounds rough. Im ready for some cool fall weather so i get started on my rear axle swap and rear coil conversion. I traded a set of heads for a built 9" rear. Still needs some work for my application but its pretty solid already. Big shout to Cruiser for all the help these past few months.

Got my longer front brake lines installed, fixed my high beam switch, fixed my leaky power steering pump, Got my flex joint installed in the upper mount on my dana 30. finally finished cutting off my frame mounts from my short arms. Took my sway bar off again because the links would clunk every time I hit a bump.
