Got to get the state inspection done in a couple weeks. Checked the sheet from last years inspection. Only driven it 450 miles. I used to drive it that much a week.

But think of the savings in gas costs.
Replaced water pump, thermostat, hoses and flushed radiator. TJ has low miles and coolant is original. Preemptively ordered all parts but the TJ had other plans, water pump let go before parts arrived. Was able to get parts locally to prevent coolant leaking onto garage floor.
Drove to see a million dollar home I used to deliver food to. Owners were away in Spain, got an alert on their phone yesterday about gas in the house. Instead of calling 911, they called a neighborhood friend to see if she could check it out. She brought a guy she knew, to help. FD said the house exploded when she opened the front door. She was blown to pieces and the man was badly injured (lost arm and leg). Makes me feel really lucky about leaving the gas on for hours the other day and my wife coming home to smell it.

Just this minute saw this on the national news. They did not report any detail on those two people. Thanks for that, Boog. Very sad.
A friend of my wife works for the FD and was on the scene. It screwed him up pretty bad seeing the condition of the two people.
Moral of the story for all of you is shut off the power and gas from outside if you safely can and gtfo!
Those are 1/8” spacers that go between the skid plate and frame. They are needed because when you use the C bracket it creates a gap between the skid plate and frame in front of and behind the C bracket. Take a little RTV and slap it on the top side and put them on the frame around the nutsert, of course. Then, when you put the skid on, you won’t have the trouble of trying to slide them in there.

You'll be the receiver of my frustration on how far beyond I am on my build - F' you doorless and topless riders!
Otherwise - Jeep looks great! Enjoy the summer driving brother!!

Man get it knocked out - join the fun.
I have been there- jeep in pieces and the parade is going by without me.
Do a build you love, the joy comes later- every time you see it or drive it. You will get there man.
This forum inspired and motivated me over the years.
