What did you do to your TJ today?

[Rescue6]

Got another new windshield installed. If I get more than a year out of one I am super excited. And it isn’t even a daily driver.

 

[BeavisTJ]

I order stuff and it take 3-4 weeks...Amazon or ebay. I cant even get some things out of the States anymore but I could pre-covid

I'm with you there

I soon found out that windshield insurance is worth the money on flat windscreens.

Yeah i get free chip repair with my insurance and the new windshields only cost me $100 usd when the crack instantly so it could be worse I guess.

...So I grab a jug , sit it on the floor and start filling it with waste oil...black diesel oil....and it was the jug I had cut the bottom out of...

Nothing stains quite like that black diesel oil!

It's a CJ tailgate and I modified the family bar.

I like that bar, the slant back looks awesome.

Put in some ventilation.

I've always liked those older style minimal vents.

Be careful with that. It does look awesome but we may now end up hearing why the Bestop Trektop NX is even more awesome.

I used some Penetrol on the faded plastics last week; gas filler bezel and license plate holder. Results were so good that I did the third brake light today and it turned out great. Even cleared up the lens.

Then of course caught the Jeep during a killer sunset after a wash so I had to take an obligatory photo.

Penetrol is illegal here in CA. It took a while to find someone that would ship it to me. I tried it on my Hardtop and my fender flares a couple of years ago. I didn't get the results I was looking for. Maybe I ended up putting too much on. Anywho, I went back to Wipenew. They don't package in bottles anymore so it doesn't leak/dry out before you get to use it. Has always worked well for me. Your application looks clean, though.

I just bought Flood Penetrol from Amazon last week, shipped to Escondido, CA. Hoping it restores the fenders.

Enjoying the pleasures of a heater core change. If I have less than 10 screws left over, I’ll consider that a win.

4 screws, 1 nut and a bypass pipe is what I have left. Bonus, everything works.

Put a 3/4in spacer on top of the front springs today because after installing the new winch & winch plate it needed a little boost.

 

[Viking Jeeper]

33a installed. 35 for comparison. I expected better take-off but I’m not seeing yet. Probably need a few more miles.

By better take-off do you mean better performance from a stop?

Amazon didn't have it in stock when I tried years ago. The ebay seller and Home Depot both refused due to my destination address. I ended up finding it from a hardware store in the mid-west that shipped out.

PRoductive day.

1. Installed my modified OEM Foglight switch to have the ability to control my AC
2. REplaced the aftermarket rocker switch with an OEM fog light switch.
3. Finished installing the Double Din Car play stereo and aligned the backup camera.
4. Replaced the bulbs in the switches and ac control with LED's.

Next up: automatic door locks and reset of LED replacements.View attachment 191135

Nice job!
It looks like you have parking lines from your camera AND from your head unit. If the head unit's lines are adjustable, I'd get rid of the ones on the camera (there is usually a loop of wire you can cut to get rid of them) and adjust the ones from the head unit to work just right with the way your camera is aimed.

yes. Acceleration. I have 4.56 gears.
