The traditional bore gauge is really a dial gauge and two non-moving contact points. It comes with a ring to set it. I’ve never seen one like that. Where’d you get it, and is it a reputable brand?
Does your tool shop have a calibration ring for it? That way you can verify that 1) it’s accurately measuring, and 2) you’re reading the vernier properly.I borrowed it from my tool shop. Not sure what brand but I’d imagine it is reputable with the product we manufacture
you might be right, I tried my best to really nest it correctly but I might just have to pull the block and have it looked at.

More importantly, why are you walking around your garage barefoot?

Airing out his stinky feet?![]()
Tossed on a new bestop trektop, and also a new exhaust manifold to replace the who knows how old cracked one. Beater half doors are also now back on since the weather is finally nice.

Nearly burned my daughter's jeep to the ground just now.
It's been in the garage not driving for the last little bit, doing the stereo (I was slow and not motivated due to the rainy weather & other competing interests). Go to start it today, battery is dead. So I go to jump it off my Lexus. Here's the thing, the battery terminals aren't labeled, and by now you know where this story is headed. One of the terminals has a black cover, although that cover wasn't on the terminal, it was hanging off to the side of the battery, So I think "black cover, gotta be the negative terminal."
I hook it all up and i know something is wrong because the headlights didn't turn on in her jeep. Then she goes "dad something is smoking!!" And she wasn't kidding. I ripped the cables off the jeep battery and prayed that the smoke circuit would finish up ...for a hot second I debated getting the fire extinguisher.
Anyway, that's when I figured out that the black terminal cover has a small red (+) on the other side. Luckily no damage done. I'll do a more thorough inspection of the wiring in that area, but it seems like we're ok for right now. Once corrected, it fired up no problem and we drove it for a little while.

I got one too!
‘Love it! So much easier.
I install a front license plate holder from BMB. @mrblaine does such fantastic work on the customer experience! The shipping, packaging and the delivery notices are all above and beyond any other supplier I have used. The license plate holder is an elegant design that finishes off the front of my LJR very nicely.
