Novak Conversions Jeep Wrangler TJ radiator

What did you do to your TJ today?

Dropped her off at the shop last night. Called today to verify work to be done:
Replace water pump
Change fluids in trans and transfer case
Replace serpentine belt
Ball joints checked out good

Still need to check toe, tracks pretty damn straight down the road, but steering wheel does not return to center as easy as I think it can. But I’m new to Wranglers, and with the 35x12.5x15’s , maybe it’s good.

Hope to have her back Thursday. Little lighter in the wallet, but happy for the peace of mind. As my goal is reliably and safety, then the fun stuff!
 
Got enthusiastic and painted the passenger mirror.

Finished the Flagstaff trip for my daughters birthday.

Drove out to Grand Falls. Just a washboard dirt road but I did choose a few hundred feet the minivans couldn't go.

We missed the major runoff by a week or so, but it was running. It's actually a couple feet taller than Niagra falls but you have to catch it at the right time. Well worth the trip, but just like Flagstaff the wind never stops.

Next time we're doing Schultz Pass to Lockett Meadow, top down.

Mighty nice. Amazing what you can create with a bit of running water...and a few hundred thousand years(y)

I sure hope you got some pictures of your TJ with that background, oh, and your family too.
 
New track bar a few days ago. I experienced death wobble for the first time coming back form a run 2 weeks ago, not fun. Just got the soft top back on (I even have windows now :) ).

Got my half doors painted and I have the windows and window frames on order (should be here in a week).

I have to admit, I HATE the f'n hard top, I don't plan on running my jeep next winter so this may be the last time I ever have to take it off.

4.88's going in very soon, excited to feel the difference going from 3.07's.
