Ho boy, Junior year was very very Busy and I let this thread fall waaaaaay to far behind, so we have some catching up to do........
Heres a picture of the jeep from fairly recently,
I'm going to try and list below what all has happened, but I'm probably gonna miss a lot of little stuff, here we go.
Upgrades:
31"KM3's
2 inch Pro-comp spring lift
UCF 3/4" plate Carbon Steel engine skid
ZJ steering upgrade
Icom 5100 Under drivers seat
TYT-9800 (6M mobile) under passanger
callsign plates
^ I got waaay to far into Ham Radio
upgraded tow hooks (old ones flew off in recovery)
Amber rock-lights
Aux electric cooling fans (this was a fun install)
Twin OTR switch panels (3 switches each)
Custom Relay/Fuse box
Custom Interior
full sound deadening Noico 80Mil
rear cargo light
sway bare quick disconnect
quick disconnect upgrade for limb risers
Custom Cowl intake - Ford V-10 filter
replaced Windshield and hood bolts with Stainless steel (royal pain)
Daystar winch hook holder (love this thing)
LED light RF isolators
AUX. LED reverse lights
Smoked light bar (still not sure how I feel about this)
Orange "Jeep" emblem stickers
DEI Fuel injector insulator kit
Stable Seat front seat bushings
Door limit straps (several times)
Bolder auto tire deflators (more of an at the trail head thing)
Extended Diff breathers
Brown Dog Motor Mounts
A/C water drain re-route
Maintenance:
Oil and filter change as well as suspension grease every 3K
TOB replacement
A/C condenser and heater core replacement
OPDA replacement
A/C control panel electrics replacement
Blower motor replacement
Spark plugs
Front U-joint replacement (Spicer 5-760X)
Full cooling system replacement (including water jacket, rad. cap etc etc)
Oil pressure sensor replacement x2 (just buy MOPAR the first time guys)
Diff fluid change (front and rear)
Transfer case fluid change
FM radio head mount replacement
Alternator replacement
Clutch master and slave cylinder
Battery Terminal replacement
Hood latch replacement
Rear gas strut replacement
Engine coolant temp sensor
Starter replacement
Cowl weather stripping
Lift gate bottom of glass weather stripping
Transmission shift bezle
I think thats everything, I'll try and add some pictures/opinions on some of them and maybe installs. The aux. cooling fan was a particularly fun trail blazing experience. If theres anything specifically you want more info on, LMK and ill be happy to tell you what I have found about it. The jeep has been great and with the Relax of COVID I have been able to go on more and more wheeling trips. I have found I really like "redneck off-road heaven" near Ardmore OK major limiting factor right now is my lack of lockers and 3.07 gears so hopefully those will be coming soon, I'm looking at some auto-lockers to go in the front Dana 30 with the new diff cover I have sitting ready to install
