Don't think it's your imagination. Never been but I'm pretty sure @Kiwi TJ lives in an island paradise.
Not so sure about the "leadership", but the same could be said about us here in the US and many other places...
What did you do to your TJ today?

Ordered tires......unfortunately not for my TJ though.My wife's WJ needs tires bad, and she loves MT tires and the noise they make. She had Kenda Klever MTs on her KJ (not JK). Everywhere I looked, these Nokian tires were around $200 each for her size, even at Walmart online. I saw they have a manufacturing plant in Dayton TN. I found a tire place selling all 4 for $390 with free shipping. Christmas is coming early this year for her.

That's a terrific deal!
Can you share the vendor?
I sure will. They should be mounted by Monday at the latest and I'll "test" her Jeep out in the mud while she's at work.
The car wash only costs $4 for 10 minutes here.

haha alright, I mainly need something thats good in the rocks
For the ones that dont know i hate mud,5 minutes of fun results into like 5-8 hours of deep pressure washing and detaling

I get your point about mud. My paycheck used to get spent at the car wash after a night of mud "fun". It took me weeks to clean that crap off my frame and repaint it. I did it for years and don't regret a thing. Bouncing on rocks at a slow pace would drive me crazy.......um....crazier.

Yeah you know the pain to say the least
Also.....Im not into powerlifting competitively mainly for fun and thats kinda sad to hear id like to do it more "full time" if i had free time and get in better shape ! Cause damn i need too
But how long did you powerlift ?
I did it for 10 years, after racing motocross for 10 years. (detached biceps tendon that wasn't repaired, torn rotator cuff not repaired, 5 hernia surgeries, torn triceps tendon not repaired). People told me what would happen when I got older and I said, who cares about what happens IF you get old. All of my buddies took steroids and were incredible. Now they're all more screwed up than me. All the motocross crashes didn't help either. I wouldn't change a thing.
Oh wow! yeah if I were to power lift I'd probably do it "competitively" for maybe 2 years to see what I can do and be set
But I don't plan on doing that for a long time for Said reasons since I wanna be straight for when I'm older !
You're much smarter than me.
Yeah i try to
Most likely its just my laziness cause even 2 years of powerlifting seems a bit too much......But yes smart is another good word
That’s like the time you asked me to loan you $10 and only give you five- That way I would owe you five dollars and you would owe me five dollars and we could call it even.
Welp Clearwater Cylinder heads cant seem to get their Shit together
Guess she aint running on Wednesday
After being lied too 3 times i cant seem to trust em. Just got off the phone and after over 3 weeks they're just now getting it shipped out tomorrow supposedly? And after being told that its getting built and that it was gonna ship no longer than 2-3 days so originally i was gonna get it no later than the 21st of last month being that i placed my order on the 13th of Nov , a few calls later i kept getting told the same thing but now with a valid excuse that thanksgiving delayed everything even though it should've been to my house before thanksgivin and ect.... SO yeah

I'll take that damn head apart and make sure everything is good on the damn thing, if not they better pay up on that shipping case imma return that shit
Note im pissed off right now so all the words above are from my "anger" ⬆ Mainly just agitated Got colorful with the words with those guys so im expecting them to do something wrong after all i said to em, Oh well

On the shiny side of things
My firewall is shiny,minor specs on my clear coat,turned on the sprinklers to get the grass wet,wetted the concrete and ect. so that any dirt/dust won't land on my paint

Have to agree with you there....our economy and government/political side of things we are not as pretty as the landscapes
This is the problem. True leadership and governance doesn't exist and can't when politics are involved. Like oil and water, they don't mix. Not a single rotten bastard in DC qualified morally, ethically or intellectually to be my leader, but I digress...

Which is why I try and get out and explore, hike, walk etc so I can forget about what our leadership is doing to the country for a bit.
Look what we have in comparison.
p.s. Sorry @Chris, I didn't think you'd notice. Feel free to delete.

Basic fab for, lots more finish work to do tomorrow, lateral braces, grind, paint, nutserts, ect. But getting there, to my specs, and waaaay cheaper than the ‘overland’ stuff.
Picked up an alternator for my jeep it's a 160 amp model from a dodge Dakota
I had a question for yall
Would it be OK to take some fine grit sandpaper and take off the rust that's on the rotor and the other thing (don't know the name of it
I figure I'm good but I'm no alternator specialist so I'd figure I'd ask
Anyways I'm gonna get to desoldering this board so I can get to paintin
Gotta unsotter this board so I can take that thing off the housing! Let's see how this goes
Edit-board is desottered
Easy peasy
