Went over to my mom's house where it is parked.(blown auto transmission) Took the radio, the system and all the wires out of it to put in my Celica.

Then started to put the list together to do the AX-15 swap into my ZJ.

My mom's Ford F150 broke down and I got to push her with my XJ about a 1/2 mile down the road to the nearest gas station because she was blocking traffic and the tow truck wouldn't get there for like 2 hours and her truck has a third of the miles my Jeep does Woo Jeep! Ford sux!!! Ahahahahaha!!!

Switched out 1 of my strongarm struts to a stock one cause it was causing the liftgate to be forced open and having it rattle bad when I went over potholes. Gonna test it out now and probably switch it back for the cold weather

Fixed my rusted out floor boards, fixed the rotted out nipple on the radiator overflow, replaced the water pump, thermostat, heater blower resistor, vc gasket, rear main seal, oil pump, and heater core. Long day... but got a lot done.

Wheeled it... FINALLY!!!!!

Did way better than expected out of a 2wd... didn't get stuck in mud or sand... I avoided going through a couple of mud traps just because of the stock height it is sitting at right now... only got stuck once and it was because I underestimated the depth of a road side puddle and got the rear axle hung up.... couldn't be more happy or impressed with my xj... at one point, my wife even said, "are you sure this thing doesn't have 4wd?"

Awesome day.
