So I am planning to post a little summary with all these as soon as I get a chance in the morning or as soon as I get back from town tomorrow. But I will definitely get them to you guys.

I banged my phone around a bit today dragging chains and stuff, so it's mad at me... lol

The airsoft bbs have been working great though.

ETA: In all fairness, those Nankangs were out of round... so honestly, I really can't say I gave 'em a fair shake. The airsoft BBs, however, are easier to install and remove. The one thing I did notice that I didn't like about the ceramic beads was that they have a tendancy to stick to the inside of the tire at the sign of a hint of moisture. So watch out for that. Airsoft BBs, don't seem to be effected by small amounts of moisture.



...such as?
This is the first time I've used something other than airsofts. I had also heard of the clumping issue. For that reason, I did not use soapy water when installing, I used a spray silicone instead, worked great, a little went a long way. I live in a fairly dry climate, and have filters and water traps on my compressor, and do regular drains on the compressor tank. We shall see.

New shoes!



Those black wheels make my bleached-out plastic trim look terrible!!



Here is the DOT approved E-code Bosch H4 housing I mentioned the other day. Has anyone else run across a E-code housing that has DOT marking on it?

Replaced my broken tail light, packed it full of stuff to take back to school since I have a trip in a couple of weeks to choccolocco, cleaned out some trash, and I plan to shower and then go back out and fix the light in the defrost switch.

Replaced the cracked coolant reservoir in my wife's 2008 Taurus X.

What's that got to do with my Jeep? Well now her car is back working so she can't take the XJ!
