Got in a 27 tooth speedo gear, have yet to confirm that the reading is correct.
Also got some mucket seals in and put them on.

Mr. Blaine,
Thanks for the info , nice to know what he did has been done before with success . I could see how it would work just fine but you never know what un seen problem can arise using something other than intended . So I guess you recommend them mounted that way and supply the parts to use the stock cables. Clever way to fix that problem and great that it works. It's wonderful that you have worked out all the problems for those who want a plug and play experience . Not everyone has fab skills and others don't want the hassle and you provide a good service..... much to be admired. I have a bit of an advantage fooling with these things being a collage educated automotive engineer ... got a few stories about that !
Nice chatting with you....William
They exist to solve a problem with the rear calipers when you outboard the shocks and don't want to lean them way back to clear the caliper bodies under articulation. The easy answer is to flip them to the front side by swapping the backing plates and calipers side for side. Unfortunately that reverses the parking brake cable mount to the back side instead of the front as designed by the OEM. I needed a way to make that work again, so we came up with those cable function reversers.
getting my "groove on". Winter weather this week and these tires could be a little better- warming up the grooving iron- free upgrade while i sort out the future lift /tire combinations

Cleaned out the cowl drain and the blower air intake - both were full of dirt, leaves and gunk. Put a bead of sealant around the blower air intake to block water from entering and making it's way to the passenger floorboard. Incidentally, I discovered that in the past, as the water has dripped from the cowl area to the floorboard, it flowed right over the fuse box and all the wiring/connections behind the glove compartment. Hoping my cleaning and sealant will avert a major electrical catastrophe.
New half door seals and JKS discos installed.

Had a few small drips under my rear diff. Discovered the grommet for my elocker wires pulled into the diff. Pulled the cover to inspect, luckily the wires were fine. Reseated the grommet and got to use a lubelocker I received for Christmas a couple years ago. Also removed the CB I installed several years ago and upgraded to a Midland MTX500.
What is the meaning of this pic ? Low/high mileage? Border crossings this month? 😬
Mine rolled over the boobs a couple days ago and I missed the photo op.
At first I thought it was "8085", an early microprocessor.
It looks too nice , you need to take it in the woods and scratch it up a bit. 😃
I went head and purchased new Dorman differential check valves for both Tjs hoping these would be a little sturdier -
Got something cool post later.

Did you try to copy @RINC's hood detailing procedure?
p.s. If you ArmorAll the hood, it will match perfectly and no need to paint. 😬

Removed the Trek Top and reinstalled the hard top for the trip back to Arkansas. I'm selling the top to a friend and that's the easiest way to transport it.
I had to drive about 8 miles from the RV park to the storage with no top on. Since it was a beautiful 70 degrees in Quartzsite yesterday it was really hard to put the hardtop back on, wanted to stay topless. Maybe next year.
