When I had stock bumpers I bought new ones for $43 each and I thought that was expensive (for what they are).
What did you do to your TJ today?

Not if you take care of it. My Buddy has 318,000 miles and it runs like new.Have 207k+ on mine and wonder if one of those is in my future.
PO was my Dad, (rip), but it sat in the elements untouched for four years. I changed the oil and filter, but need a mechanic beyond that as my skills are limited. So, I'm looking for a trusted one down here in southern AZ.
Finished my Hydro assist setup using MR. Blanes BMB ram and mounting kit with a Redneck Ram tapped steering box. Added a PSC trans/PS cooler and pump while I was at it.
Held out as long as I could, but just bought this last night...
I was definitely not happy with the reproduction CJ tailgate in my last LJ, and have been keeping an eye out for a good original candidate. I'll order the Swag kit again for the install of this one, and I'm working on something a little more trick for latching with the hardtop. I'm really excited to try some new things with this one, and I think it will clean up well.

Installed a short extension on the main transmission shift lever. Mainly to get my hands out of the CB mic cords, but a bit of extra length is nice.

Zorba sure is sexy when he talks dirty !!!!
Installed my new deck today.
XTRONS.
Sounds a lot better than the stock deck.

Set my '06 rear light wires up, found a great led for behind the back seat, and capped the stock bumper ends...painted on my metal insta trunk or whatever it is, shopping for c range mud tires, and generally having a big ol time ...
Drove to Weiss Lake where @Hog owns a lake house again tonight to take him 2 half doors we bought (he found them...I'm telling you guys he can locate anything)
My 03 is basically done for now...not saying forever, but it's at the point it works so well I'm afraid to mess with it (not because it's so awesome...but because I'm not)
I'm sure it will give me something that needs done if I don't create something.
@Claybirdd and I may do his hand throttle soon...if he has his squirrel problem solved. I don't want to steal the thunder....but he's got a new one for us he needs to post. It's great.
@Chief Brohician has a lift coming, he has already done some great tires and has his looking good.

Lol. Yeah I've had a case of the angry squirrels the last two days. I guess because of the recent cold snap this big mama squirrel decided to make my TJ her new home.
Got her out yesterday and today was right back in.

Time to leave the cat in the tj.
Tried that, they just chased it up into the dash. As much as I hated to do it, I had to break out the pellet gun. She had made my jeep her winter home.
Man's gotta do what he's gotta do!!!!
Them suckers are hard on wiring, seats and such!!!!!
As we worked on his Jeep, for some reason I kept dropping pecans everywhere....I thought, oh well....
I work on houses and I don't think there's a more destructive animal than a squirrel. I've seen them basically eat through a roof.
