What did you do to your TJ today?

[All 4 Wheelin']

Replaced a battery. Good times.
I hope to drive it to work tomorrow but am nervous as what if there is a pop up shower.

Drive between the raindrops.

Replaced the passenger sway bar link. I also forgot to take a wrench off of the front bumper. It came off about 1/2 mile down the road on the way to dinner. Recovered safely...stupid lesson learned.

Plans the next few days:
Wire powered sub and reassemble consol.
Drill additional holes for new bumper
Weld nut plate to secure new bumper to frame
Wheel it at Topless Day in NE PA

 

[Kiwi TJ]

Finally made some brackets? Tabs? The red things.....to hold my axe and shovel to the rear tire carrier.
Check out the cool dingo with the Detroit locker bandanna.

Today I finally replaced my front lower control arms, which involved cutting out the 100% seized axle bolts with a dremel and sawzall. Replaced bolts with grade 8 pieces and used the Black Magic Johnny Joint washers. Continuing the journey to replace all the old rubber on this 15 year old beast.

Repainted the fenders and made some new door straps since one was useless Velcro.

I did that with a Makita cordless drill (set in behind a Warn 8274 winch mount) and another time with a snap-on ratchet and 10mm deep socket

Unfortunately neither time did I find said tools

I love my working fuel gauge.

I love my working fuel gauge.

ok glad I’m not the only one getting 130 out of a tank! Hahaha

 

[GEEP4ME]

Filled up at 176 miles. Still had almost 4 gallons left. Which is what I'd been getting for most of the last year.

If those photos were taken about 10 min apart that fuel gauge seems about right ....

Love how your "Extremely Rightwing" sticker is on the left side of your bumper

Replaced a battery. Good times.

Bring a pop-up bar of soap!

Not exactly today but over past few weeks.

Installed Windstar cowl intake in prep for GR high lines.
Replaced old dry, crumbling wire loom in many places in engine bay.
Replaced leaking valve cover gasket.
Replaced injector insulator shield with new OEM part from eBay

Dingoes make great Jeep dogs, got a couple of Heelers myself.

I did something very similar last week. My favorite 1/2” ratchet and my extensions made a 35mi round trip on top of my winch

 

[Midtenn]

When I see these wrenches show up in peoples tires, I now know who to blame.

 

[John Cooper]

Fixed my 1494 code, thinks it's why I got a good deal on my Jeep, just plugged the hose back onto the pump

Nice.
Now back to the trails and test if the paint adhered properly

That should be the OEM version to be honest.
Nice work!

Definitely something to look into. Any cooler air at all, or just cleanup of the engine bay?
