Well it’s officially been two months since I’ve taken possession of my first TJ aka the Ugly Duck.

Here’s what I have accomplished so far, not in any particular order;

Oil/filter
Front / rear diff oil
Coolant system flush
Correct thermostat/ new housing
Serpentine belt / tensioner / pulley
Spark plugs
Evap leak fixed
Coolant temp sensor
New windshield
Windows stripped and retinted
Wheels and tires (x5)
HD steering kit w/stabilizer
Adjustable track bar
Quick disconnect sway bar links
Alignment / steering wheel calibration
Extensive interior cleaning
Front / rear turn signal bulbs
Fender flares
Tailgate bar
Inner shift boot
Outer shift boot bezel
Seat belts / mechanisms serviced
12v plug repair
Speedo calibration

Pending items;
Complete brake system overhaul
LED headlights

Items on my radar:
Shocks
Ball joints
Front hubs/bearings
Steering column bezel if I can find a nice one
Some good spot lights for the windshield mounts that currently have floods installed
Battery cable kit
Maybe an LED taillight option
Maybe reinforced tailgate hinge to put spare back on and ditch the swing out bumper mounted tire
Maybe a better soft top/frame
AC compressor repair kit
Blend door repair
Legit sound system

That’s all I can think of for now

Greatly appreciate all the help from the folks on here.
