What did you do to your TJ today?

Early Christmas presents!

I removed a couple of Windshield Body Bolts the a hard way... with a cold chisel! The Torx Bit Stripped two of the bolt heads. The cheap "easy out" I used on one of the bolts broke off in the hole I drilled in the bolt. I then had to back the screw out with a cold chisel and a lot of patience.

Lived in San Antonio for seven years, two Air Force assignments...loved my time in Texas. Now, I live in NC, love it as well. Like that we have four seasons, even though they can happen in a span of a week!
Where in NC? I am up in the Asheville area. Those new carpets look good. Can you share a link where you purchased? Cheers!
 
Do you have your light bar rigged to it's own switch, or did you choose to wire it into the back-up lights?
I used the switch and harness that came in the box. It will be used as a utility light, and it is so damn bright I don't want it coming on when I reverse. Nice and small so I installed it right on the rear bumper under the spare, so it is tucked away.
 
While prepping to line the tub, replaced the shift tower to my nv3550. Discovered more nasty fluid (even after I drained it from the bottom). Literally sucked the nasty stuff out from the top through a tube....4 cups worth.

Tower was shot too, so a replacement was necessary.

That's crazy!

I’m in the Hickory area, and also have a house in the mountains (about five miles from Grandfather Mountain.)
The carpet in my TJ is original, but I bought Rough Ridge floor mats to go over it. Want to eventually replace the carpet with Bedrug.
 
And they are on. My wife and I hopped in and just drove around the block where the speed limit is 25mph. Both first impressions of the load range c vs e are the same, it’s smoother. I’ll hopefully get out a bit later today on some different roads and at greater speeds.
