Anyone else had this happen?
Are you referring to the c-clips being hard tonight back in. The last one on both of my axles for my XJ were tough and the last one on my friends LJ was a bear.

Moved the XJ to in front of my dd. I haven't driven it in about 2 months & wanted to make sure that it would start.

New 60" bar from Hi-Lift is only 25 bucks... in case you hadn't thought of it.

Literally pitching a tent over here. That looks fantastic. Nice work. How long until you fire it?

Finishing up the Gps install. The Gps is nothing special. Has a decent map with the added chip. But I also added the sonic hub so all my music and audio is controlled from it also.


.... The Jeep purist will notice I had to relocate the heater control up also.
