What did you do to your TJ today?

D's Jeep Wrld said:

Just do it! I pulled my seat out cause welp....im lonely , Haha no
But the extra space without the seat comes in handy, the pics of me posting my Dana 30 axle, That axle was once hauled from Moody Tx to my home for a good 2 hours in the back of my lj . What im implying is that the extra space is awesome and with an Lj its even better! Pluss the occupants that used to be backe there on my seat weren't all too comfortable either, Now my spare tire might reside to where the seat was,no too sure yet!

Alright my Hp30 is now ready for leaf spring perches for it to go on my LJ......Jk
I got the day off cause of newyears day so I've just Chopped&hammered off the brackets to get some more progress on this Dana turdy

Gotta work on smoothing out the welds that I added from cutting a bit too deep and from the lows that were around the "factory" welds....with that said I'm gonna give myself the excuse to buy a cheap tube sander from Amazon and see how it treats me,I'm kinda done using a diegrinder with a burr&file so the tube sander should help me remove the rust on the tubes and finish off the tubes!

And I used this little contraption with a drill on the inside of the axle tubes,I wish I took a picture before sanding but it did a decent job and smoothed out the scale in ther. Just need to get some 60 grit sandpaper cause this 180 grit ain't gonna cut it....

The scale In there was pretty bad but using that pvc tool helped

Also,I saw this clean example of a BMW E34 at home depot, It's a beautiful car man

Ever notice how the grill on a BMW looks like butt cheeks?

Google drill bit extension and flap wheel. Wire brush wheel could also help. The courser the grit the better followed by rust converter paint

Do these ground via the tub the same way as the OEM taillights?

mjonesjr84 said:

Sort of. You have to attach a wire to a ground spot after they are installed. I put a nut and washer on the back of the bold that holds them on to ground them.

Awesome. I keep dealing with grounding issues with my tails, probably partially to the dumb cage thingies it came with. This would probably be a nice way to fix that permanently

The instructions just said to ground them somewhere. I didn't want to drill another hole.
