What did you do to your TJ today?

[Kiwi TJ]

Wasn't today but Monday. Finally pulled the trigger on Bartact seat covers, took advantage of the minimal savings for Cyber Monday. UPS says they're in Illinois today, with expected delivery to me in Michigan tomorrow. I wanted to recover the seats with original color Sahara tan and green, but the cost from the local upholstery shop was out of range for my TJ, since it's not my DD.

I bought a set two years ago absolutely love them… money well spent

My new hog ring pliers showed up around 5 this morning. But because I’m lazy I didn’t put them to use until almost 8. (I love being retired.)

Anyway, after exactly 35 minutes of leisurely work I now have new seat base foam in the drivers seat. The remaining three foam pieces are obviously a bit worn after 26 years of use, but not much. The difference is truly amazing. No more sitting at a weird angle and I can now see my whole hood from the drivers seat. I even had to adjust the steering wheel tilt up a bit so I could again see my gauge cluster. Best $90.00 I’ve spent in a long time. Summit Racing for the win!

I may need to try these. I like the idea of seeing my bonnet and gauges and I can then get rid of my booster seat..,

Velveeta is more cheese than stuff like Kraft Mac and cheese. You can make it yourself with sodium citrate

Don't be so hard on yourself, they dislike everyone.

Cats hate us & if they had opposable thumbs they would have killed us all by now & be ruling the world.

Installed the JKS rear trackbar relocation bracket this morning.

I know @Weasellee warned me, but I wanted to get the trackbar off the fuel tank.

I will keep an eye on it and if it gives me any trouble I will replace it with a Rockjock.

It will be fine. The only time I had one fail is when I got hit in the rear wheel by a car traveling 50 MPH. Lots of other stuff failed too.
p.s. You might need these though.

Bartacts are hard to choke down but no one ever complains later.

I've live by the moto you get what you pay for. That's why I went with PRP seats instead of Bestop or Corabu.

I got mine used from a form member. Think I paid 1/2 price.

One of the best interior upgrades i have done.
