New o-rings on the new injectors I put in last week, the o-rings that came with the injectors sucked and leaked like a bad faucet.

It's been a while since I've posted anything. If you look in my photo album, you can see a lot has been done. Everything for the most part have been documented and photo's taken. I plan on doing a build thread in dedication too my Pops. He is now 74 years old and from picking up the Jeep while I was away overseas, to his last effort of love. Installing the rear bumper tire carrier, he has for the most part built this XJ on his own. I sure love this man! While I was buying parts while over seas, it was our plan to build this together when I would come home. Of course each time I would come home, he would have put on what I bought. Mom would say too me that "your dad was board and you know son, he loves you and enjoyed doing the work and having something to do". I would say I wanted to do this together. HAHA!! Anyways, next up, we plan on re-gearing, putting locks front and rear and finally install the Detours frame stiffeners/rock guards on here shortly, that I bought a couple years ago. I'm going to buy a mig welder to do it ourselves. Also, going to repaint the XJ with the U-Pol Rapter kit here at the house. I told him about it and I could hear him dancing. He's already been on You Tube checking it out. He's funny! On these last items, since I'm home now. I plan on sending them to my house. LOL. Then, it's off to Uwharrie to finally do some wheeling. Hope to see you out there.
Dad & I installed the new bumper and Winch.
Side view. It's finally starting to shape up.

Fishbone Bullhead Front Winch Bumper with Grille Guard & Warn Zeon 10K. Install on both wasn't too bad.

Here's Pops in the early stages of the build. Little did I know. A lot of the way the XJ has transformed has been idea's he threw at me by reading these posts and so on. He is a trip! He was 69 years old, when this photo was taken.
Dad getting it done!

Tightened a loose bolt inside the transfer case. Discovered that I will eventually need to replace the transmission mount.

Opened up the diff cover on the axle I got the other day and it turned out to be a limited slip and not an open carrier like the guy had said it was supposed to be.
