Took an old toothbrush to the trim and Jeep/Cherokee logos. The guy I bought it from let it sit a year and there was a nice layer of dried slime in the nooks and crannies. Its raining today so it will help wash that gunk away before I end up washing my rig....if it ever stops raining here. Shoot, maybe I'll just throw a layer of mud on her and call it good.

Also bought a little 3 ft shovel that I have clipped in on the driverside between the seat and door on the floor. It's held by some clamps for a Maglite there.

 

Put on a new steering stabilizer and also replaced my u joints on my front driveshaft (they were very worn!). I also began to hear my chain in my t-case rattle along the bottom about two weeks ago, but as soon as i put on new u joints and tested the 4wd, the rattling went away!!killed two birds with one stone!!!

 

2 new tires.

 

Started loading it for my 19 hour trip to florida on Friday. Also checked fluid levels and tire pressure.

 

painted my steering tubes and my front diff cover
then i got a new drumset set up in my room and banged on that for a long time used my XJ to haul it all in

tomorrow ganna paitn the rear diff cover and get some pics up

 

drove it around town and enjoyed the smooth new ride

 

I finished installing my JCR winch bumper. Now its too wet to wheel in my area.

 

Cleaned/detailed the interior. I did everything short from a full carpet/seat shampoo! it looks so pretty now =] even if the outside doesnt....

interior has 1 seat rip(1/2") and a small crack on the dash from where i drilled into it, other than that it looks like it rolled off the factory floor! minus the additions like gauges and switched and PA and CB on the inside lol.

 

Last night I started hearing a grinding noise coming from my rear end. Got home and pulled the rear wheels off and found that my rear breaks are shot. So this weekend I'm doing front and rear breaks along with replacing the brake fluid. Also I'll be rolling my finders and triming some more body parts off.

 

its never to wet

 

Replaced burnt pinion bearings and put the rear axle back in. Tomorrow gotta put shocks back on and bleed the brakes so I can ride this weekend.

 

... brought her home from the shop where she had surgery performed in the cargo area to remove some rust. Glad to have my baby back home
