What did you do to your TJ today?

Drove my jeep to work today. 1st time parking it in the wilds of the city. Windows off, all washed and shiny. It was right out front of the clinic for only 3 hrs. (I try not to work too hard 😂)

I was epic ducked! This sucker was huge. They reached right in and put it on the centre console. 😮

I had it for a total of 22 minutes until I saw JK mom loading groceries and passed it along. No yellow ducks staying in my gothic jeep. 🤣

What a strange tradition it is…

Don't forget to fumigate your Jeep to prevent re-infestations.

I had no idea that @AndyG moved to the 51st state. ;) 🇺🇸
 
Today, my cousin and I put the front shocks on. For the record, all shocks are now Bilstein 4600s. The old shocks were completely dead. We also installed RT-CTZ metal hood latches which not only look great but keep the hood from vibrating up and down when driving into the wind. The jeep now drives almost like a regular automobile. At some point, I will probably replace the steering stabilizer but I have tractors to take care of first. It has been an educational experience so far. I'm sure it will continue.
 
Ok, let me pick some brains here as I'm a little stumped. The fluid on the L is ATF+4. The fluid on the R is what came out of the 42RLE. Now here is the weird part, what came out does not smell burnt, or is it red/pink. It's a gold/brown color and does NOT smell anything like ATF at all. Smells more like hydraulic or power steering fluid. So, I have no clue what the hell the previous owner had put in the transmission, as the only "gold/brown" trans fluids I've seen have seen for CVT's or HD trucks, and how the hell has it been working this long with no issues?!
