Novak Conversions Jeep Wrangler TJ engine mounts

What did you do to your TJ today?

Thanks you for the info! Yeah I'm also not a fan of the black center bezel,that's one of the things that just seem off to me with these jeeps!
I'm loving the interior setup man! I like the Mexican heritage repping on the seats💪🏼
I Essentially want to do the same once I get to the point of doing my interior! Getting some custom PRP enduro seats do that twill color like you did on the sides with the tan vinyl and maybe do the poncho center? but since i daily my jeep Idk if that's the best route.....I'll figure it out by then 😆
I dig it man 😎.....I really do 😁
Edit- I'm also going for this kinda of vibe for my interior,A dark walnut like color with a bit of tan i.e like on the seats !

While on this topic, I have a leather Wheelskins steering wheel cover, been on there forever and really like it, I recommend them to anybody. They also do brown leather, I asked for some samples the other day and this is what they sent. Dunno if any of them would look very good on the black wheel or not, but it's an option.

I'd like to stitch a shifter boot out of the poncho-pattern serape as well. I contacted PRP but they declined selling me fabric directly, so I'll need to find a similar fabric in tone/pattern.

My gladiator's also mismatched brown on brown, and my PC... now that I think about it, maybe it's becoming a problem :LOL:

That is hysterical. I have been on this forum for years and always told myself that I had no more input that what was already posted. I should just stay out.
Finally I registered this week. When it asked for a user name all I could think was I had seen something like this before, probably on another forum. Surely if it's taken it will tell me. Looks like I was off by a few number. Hahaha, no biggie. You won't see me much. Or I'll change it.

Edit: Looks like I get to become a supporting member to change my name.

Awww man good looking out with the "Wheelskins" brand ! I definitely need that,just need a new airbag cause it itself is kinda crusty.....not crusty but it seems like the p.o used some sort of armorall cause when I use an APC it just turns slimey and goooey 🥴.....not pretty.....

And dude your PC looks great ! I've always hated those Dookie.....puke colored noctua fans but man.....SIR you pulled it off with the colors! I like the readout that's under the gpu
Here's mines I built it a while ago spent a month grinding for it back when I was a gaming freak then life hit at 200% when I was like 17-18 ish so it's now just a pretty paper weight that's really only used for youtube videos and watching this forum 😆
Can't remember much since I'm not active to the PC building game no more but here's my specs
Asus Rog B450f I think?
A cheap ole ryzen 5 3500.....(the bottleneck) underneath a LTT edition noctua nhd15
Evga rtx3080 ftw3 not the hashrate limited one 😁 but the "og"
32 gb if gskill ram sticks
evga 1000 or 1200 psu either gold or platinum
1tb viper ssd card
All that stuff is cased in a white "Metallic gear" case

Here's some Rgb puke action,down graded my cpu when I needed money and since then it's stuck on rgb for the gpu and ram&motherboard.....too lazy to change it
Excuse If the picture quality is bad,I had to do screenshots it cause apparently it's too large of a file 🙃

I am in no way offended. I like the name. I have been PRNDL on several jeep forums for over a decade. No biggie and no reason to change yours. Honestly when I saw it, my thought was "Wait, what did I do?"

Find a local PRP dealer and have them buy the material for you. My local off road shop buys the material to match PRP front seats all the time to have rear TJ seats recovered.
 
11:30 PM and I decide to change the fan clutch- Started roaring today.... Now I am out on a test drive and the same Toyota Highlander is still at Hughes cave parking area- I’m going to talk to the dispatcher at the sheriffs department this is just really freaky.

Back on topic this jeep has really really brought me a lot of satisfaction- Basically I am happy with the choices I made and enjoy driving it- It is easy to get in and out of. Just a fun do all TJ.

The stereo has been a pleasant surprise- To me it is easier to work than one with knobs- I think one feature is the distance between places you touch makes it very forgiving.

Those rail protectors aren't something I'd have ever thought I'd want but that looks pretty nice and it'd be a lot easier to wipe the dirt and grit off... info?

They are showing $100 for a pair right now which I think is sort of ridiculous- this is Extreme Terrain

They are plastic, They are good to hide damage from people crawling in the back and they don’t have any affect on the fitment of a soft top system-

They are held on by 3 M double sided tape.

Ah yeah $100 is a bit rich for me for plastic caps but I'll keep an eye on them. Thanks!

Flowmaster SS downpipe/cats showed up. I've been running a 2.25" muffler. Actually, I've gone through 5 different mufflers trying to figure out what I like. Now I've got this Flowmaster pipe in front of me with a 2.5" termination before the third cat and it got me thinking...

So I spent money I wasn't planning to spend.
Ordered some 2.5" stainless pipes, a new 2.5" in/out muffler, V-bands clamps.
Radiator skid.
Sent some more money Blaine's way for a long overdue winch line along with the ST up fairlead and a power steering cooler.
Fuse block for the heated seats and other accessories inside the Jeep.
Got some floor mats for the Gladiator.

Resisting the urge to buy a new spice Trektop for the TJ and outboard parts. I'd love to get some intercooler tubes and gears for the Gladiator too.

Must stop. Overtime and holiday pay is a helluva drug.
