What did you do to your TJ today?

Went for a short drive to pick up Jerry Can I bought online.

Very nice!! Been trying to find some originals myself. Are you going to sandblast and repaint or just spray them with clear coat?
I have a about 4....haven't decided what to do with them yet.( I like patina tho')..The one I bought today will be painted Ford Lighting blue to match my mates 32 Deuce roadster...then I will sign paint the words 'Deuce juice' on it for his 60th Birthday.
I have done one for myself saying "Jeep juice' you may have seen in on a past thread here.
 
Did the rear main and timing chain. The chain had a fair amount of slack at 168k
Good news is there wasn’t any sludge, and didn’t find any angry pieces in the pan.

today was 100% random, plan was a simple bike ride so I tossed the bike on the rack & went down to my girlfriend's house & we did a nice ride. Was a perfectly sunny & warm day & early enough in the afternoon so I suggested we grab a beer at a little joint a few blocks from her house, we've passed it 1000 times over the years but haven't been there to check out their outdoor 'covid' spot. We got there around 2pm & were just about the only ones there but as time wore on people started trickling in as a band started setting up. Turns out it was a 70's tribute band called Lovelace that kicked ass in ways I can't even describe, these guys were freakin amazing, every song they did was spot-on. Here's a short clip I managed to grab:



here's their playlist:

Changed her oil and filter today with 10w-40 Diesel oil. Also installed a Fomoto Drain plug. So far no drips, no runs and no errors!

Do these just tighten where they stop,is there a way of clocking them where you want them?

Replaced front inner axle seals on my 06 LJ Rubicon. Had replaced the outer U Joints about a month ago and one of those plastic rings they put on the axle for assisting insertion made its way INTO the passenger side seal and it was leaking like a sieve.
