Took off the driver side tire and rim on my 98 and found out my pads and rotor were in decent shape, going to turn them and throw them back on after i get the axle.

Thumbs up

Well this is more of what i did this whole week. Took the old timing chain, and timing sprockets out, Also changed my oil and filter. Hooked up my new power steering pressure hose, put in the new ignition switch and started taking my old cracked grille off, took off my radiator. thats pretty much it, hopefully next week i get it started.

Started at 7pm and finished at 7am. All this work for a free axle all I had to do was cut out the welded spider gears on a xj and install unwelded spider gears.

Then when I got home to unload the axles my friend slid on the frosty grass into my shed and knocked over my 09 Suzuki DR-Z400
That looks like a nice TOY! I hope the DR-Z400 didn't get damaged.

Luckaly no damage to the DR-Z but my tool box didn't get so lucky. No big deal He came back over this afternoon and we beat the hell out of the wall and got it pretty straight.

I installed a new blower motor and got the heat to work in my Jeep today. Then I took her to the car wash for a good bath. Its been a while since she was this clean. I wanted her to look good for my date tonight.

Installed new rotors/pads. Pulled the front skid plate. Think it looks better without it.

just got a much needed vacuum and bath, replaced the rusty screws in the door sills, got new sylvania headlights (not silverstars) put in last night and new wiper blades all around. I'm about to go look into some wal-fart fog lights to go in the stock locations.
