What did you do to your TJ today?

My 2001 Sahara driver seat has the loop on the front and will fold/tumble. And as of this morning, it also had the new bottom seat cushion foam from Summit:

All I can say is WOW! As comfortable as any car seat I've ever sat in, this is going to make the daily drive that much better!

Side question: my driver seat has the black latch at the rear of the seat base, but pulling that does not allow the seat back to recline. I soaked the coil spring and entire area in Kroil for a couple days while the seat was out of the Jeep and the foam was off. No difference. Should it recline?

It should reclaim although I have not worked on that function

Yes, that should recline the seat, but not by much. Maybe 6 inches (all the way forward to all the way back) at the top of the seat. It will not lay flat or fold forward enough to get a person into the back from that side.

About a week ago a gust of wind hit the neighbors pine tree. It blew a huge poof of pollen off of it that was somewhat shaped like the tree for a couple seconds before it dissipated.

It was actually pretty cool looking but I’m glad the wind was blowing away from me. 😄

Yes sir, between the god awful Bradford pear trees and pines, I was glad we got some rain last night and this morning. Wash that mess out for a week I hope.

Leaving a brake line attached but loose and ending for the day... Risky. Hope you don't forget!!!

So, second weekend since I bought this 05 Rubi. Spent the first week knocking off any rust I could find. Did a tune up. Oil change. Order my Safe T Caps and made the appointment to have them installed.

This weekend I finally got around to making it look good. Took out the back seats and seatbelts. New seat covers. Floor liners. New headlights. Detailed it inside and out.. compounded the Body and Hardtop, used a Black cleaner wax and a black tinted wax on the Top. Cleaned up the faded fender flares. Put in some cheap new fog lights. Cleaned up the Rims.

Once the Frame repairs are done and the new exhaust is on, I can get it lifted and put on some 33s.
