What did you do to your TJ today?

Not mine, but helping my buddy prep his jeep for a Savvy 3” lift. Got it into hover mode last night!
I like these and I’m not ashamed.

I'll be doing something to my Jeep soon. I just found out the IRS is finally giving me the past two stimulus checks on 4/7. That's $2,000 to NOT tell the wife about. 
Took mine out to play for the first time since the lift was installed. Super happy with how she performed and the amount of flex. Not sure I need much more, however fenders are in the future!

Looks fun where did you go ?
Also like the countertops in the paint can picture I have the exact ones at my house.
Thanks! Just ran out to cetico creek and mad dog out in Tellico. I agree I’m over these drops in temperature, had the top off and had to put it all back on yesterday.
TN must be like VA lately. I went to work at 2am two days ago and it was 60. The past two nights (days for me) it was 28-30.
Sorry, the quick disconnect power cables, what brand are you using? Just anderson connections on the ends?
Got the rear done, minus the shocks. Rubicon 44, sitting on H&R springs, Savvy control arms, and Currie rear track bar. Took some work, but I'm very close to 10" shock travel, with 1.5" suspension and 1" body lift.
Changed oil and filter: Pennzoil High Mileage Conventional 10W-30 & Wix 51085.
Lubed suspension and steering.
Rotated all 5 tires.
Also replaced the air filter (AC Delco A1548C).
I was going to put the one I removed back. While updating online maintenance records I saw the dealership replaced my Jeep's air filter just before I bought it. I checked the number on the old one, it's an STP, looks just like the AC Delco, but I decided to go with the new one anyway.
Once I jogged my own memory I realized I read a forum thread here on K&N Filters where @Jerry Bransford talked about AC Delco being pretty good at particle filtering yet still allowing good air flow. That's why I had ordered the thing in the first place! So I left it in the air box.
It's hell getting old.

Finished installing the speaker grilles that came with the Kickers I installed in the soundbar a while back. The OEM grilles were cracked and starting to rattle, so they had to go.
The Kicker grilles were just a tad too wide to fit into the recesses, but after a little Dremel work around the edges, they fit just right and mounted easily.
In the process, I discovered that either the PO, or whoever installed the stereo, did a janky-assed job wiring in the passenger side speaker. Can't imagine how they got the old speakers connected with the inch and a half of wire available inside the sound bar. This was really odd because the driver side had plenty to work with and easy access.
I was able to splice in a good length of wire, making access and the install much easier.
