well took out my rear sway bar = more flex in rear...fixed my rattling exhaust...put on my steering stabilizer and my old one had absolutely no resistance you could push the piston in effortlessly and it blows dust out at you...quite a productive day

I just bought a 8000LB winch for my Cherokee. Now to find some 3x6 tube to build a new bumper to mount the winch to. I hope I just didn't put myself into a tough time spending the cash....

Removed the rear track bar in order to change the bushings. I found out they need to be pressed out. I picked up a Energy Suspensions poly bushing kit from Auto Zone for 12 bucks.

Put my new husky liner floor mats in and got the new rock key cut that my better half got me for fathers day. I'm lucky to have her. I also loaded the new mower into the back so I can give it to my dad tomorrow when I see him. Fathers day gift.
