Yeah. That was the doing of my nephew. He decided to drive to school with a flat tire lmao.. I'll be getting a good tire on there this coming weekend.
What did you do to your TJ today?

I wish there was something that I could miss here, so far I don’t like much about it at all, except for my pretty girl that is
I’m very new to this stuff, are the “Oh shit handles” you are referring to the ones that go on the upper windshield corners?
I discovered I might have a timing issue yesterday when the jeep popped P0016, P0340, and P0344.
Swapped in the cam sensor that came with the Crown OPDA and it fired no issue. Started fine this morning and the CEL is gone.
Time will tell.
Spent the rest of yesterday getting most of my OR FAB tire carrier on.
Today I'll finish it up. Basically just hanging/adjusting the gate.
Snapped the retainer clip for the hose going into the air canister in the passenger quarter panel.
Anyone know where to source one of these?

Installed LED headlights, painted the headlight bezels black and removed the milk jugs.
Snapped a photo, as all the Jeep owning Michiganders impatiently wait for warm weather! Doesn't mother nature know we have lots of stuff to do on our TJ's?!!!

Removing those chrome grill inserts will help keep you jeep cooler
Made a floor mat out of a foam floor tile(?). It can also be used for a kneeling pad.
I repaired the marker light wiring: cut the wires offset, dipped the wires in flux, tinned the wires with SN63/PB37 solder, slid on 2 different size heat shrinks, one large, one small, soldered the wires together, cleaned the flux off with isopropyl alcohol, then slid up the small heat shrink, shrunk it, then shrunk the larger one, wrapped with 3m tape. Installed a bulb to test, works as advertised.
junk yard, look at the chrysler mini vans and cars of the same ear as your jeep.
When I painted the bezels I also painted the ring that retains the headlight. Scuffed up the plastic chrome on bezel with scotch write but it sill came off a little when I used a torx screwdriver to adjust the beam.
sanded with 150 grit sandpaper, 2 coats of paint, can't see any sanding marks.
Yeah I was thinking about those, but thought that a little chrome might accent it???

On my to do list! I have the black headlight bezels, but now that chrome ring sticks out like a sore thumb with the black bezels. Looks great!
Installed a USB port where I took the cigar lighter socket out. The sony receiver has a rear USB input for CarPlay.

Mocked up the drawer boxes and a cooler slide in the back. Also acquired a nice pair of Warn bumpers with swing away tire carrier. New fuel pump arrived from Rock Auto today and the Jeep goes in for a new clutch tomorrow. 10 Barrel Apocalypse IPA for scale . . .
