They do make tinted windows. I had them on my 98'.Wow, they sure did look tinted. LOL Oh well, guess I get to save money now.
What did you do to your TJ today?

Bring that splitter by my house and drop it. I'll put it to work
The JKS are better links than any solid links, simply by design, fit and bushing strength. They really change the way a TJ handles.
Replaced the stripped out soft top frame ends and also added a hidden toggle to the ASD.
I'm sure you know that the sway bar end links don't change how a TJ handles on the street, unless they're disconnected or the bushings are missing. Maybe for this guy.
Dumbest Jeep vid ever IMO.

That was 3 minutes of my life I will never get back. I'm ashamed to say I watched the whole thing. I sure hope that's not the new jeeper stereotypeI'm sure you know that the sway bar end links don't change how a TJ handles on the street, unless they're disconnected or the bushings are missing.

went exploring and got a bit muddy.
Yes, quality sway bar links do affect a TJs street handling -especially with larger tires that transmit more movement energy to the chassis.I'm sure you know that the sway bar end links don't change how a TJ handles on the street, unless they're disconnected or the bushings are missing. Maybe for this guy.
The large, denser bushings and tighter tolerances mean instant engagement of the link with the sway bar , less roll and more predictable handling.
The only time they wouldn't is if the sway bar links it currently has are in perfect condition..and that is seldom the case.
Unless you have installed a set of JKS links , none of this will be believable.
At the same time, I won't argue that they make it a Corvette ...it isn't, and a Corvette can't do what it does.

Installed some Autozone lights on the bumper (spot beams on top and flood beams on bottom), a horn that's actually useful, and made a bracket to hold the relays for the new lights out of a Mr. Gasket spark plug wire spreader. There's three relays for two sets of lights because the I wanted the flood beams to be tied into the fog light switch as well as a separate switch. Pardon the ugly bumper, I was going to paint it this weekend and turns out one of the weld nuts inside the frame broke the weld (thanks PO).
Not much - decided that since I had replaced the radiator and heater hoses, that the puke bottle hose should be replaced too. It was missing a clamp on the radiator end as well.
Thanks @Hog .
He helped me come up with this.
Any of you guys that don't have a Jeep buddy you need one like him.
It makes some of these crimes go smoother

Did an oil change today at 55k. Put in six quarts, got 5 back. Not sure when they PO last changed the oil so we’ll see what consumption looks like in 5000 miles when I change it again. They grow up so fast 
Also test fit the new half doors. They fit perfect except for one hinge that sits just 1/4” high. I’ll fix that before I paint them. Interior panels are a dead match to my interior so that’s a huge plus as well!

Yep. First time I saw one for sale I knew that was the one I wanted. Took me almost six months!
