where did you order that sticker from?
Pretty sure it was Amazon... I bought it a while ago and forgot I had it...I think its listed as an easter egg sticker.
I’ll see if I can go through my past buys on there and find it for you

Dusted it off. Been setting in the warm garage out of the salt that the local road crews seem to keep spreading for no apparent reason.
Only thing worse is the pre-snow treatment they spray on the roadways when they suspect snow is coming. I swear to God it has molasses in it.

Not Molasses, automotive cancer, Salt.
 
Cleaning day today…. Finally got around to cleaning the vent pipe under the cowl… used my leaf blower, vacuum cleaner and an old wire coat hanger 😂 …. Quite a bit of crap came out underneath which explains the wet feet when it downpours.

Then disconnected the drivers seatbelt to give it a really good clean so it will retract better… fingers crossed this works

I have a license plate relocation kit in front of my spare tire. Took tire and plate off few days ago to work on extending snubbers. Current snubbers are few inches short with tailgate reinforcement kit I installed. Like always, didnt finish project, but wanted to get jeep out of garage.

Threw plate back on and it started pouring rain right before I was leaving for dinner. Took plate back off. Closed garage.

maybe tomorrow.....

Living all the way down here and being subtropical that sort of thing happens all the time lol…. Beautiful sunny clear sky day I wash the car and vacuum or start a project then it rains…. never fails
 
This Dorman thermostat house kept leaking no matter what I did. I scooped up an old OEM from the scrap yard and installed it. Leak seems to be fixed. No idea why the Dorman was installed by the PO or why it was leaking.
Also replace a sensor on the XJ and fixed a vacuum leak.

Many of the aftermarket necks have coplanarity issues - mine did. Permatex fixed it.
