What did you do to your TJ today?

[Kiwi TJ]

I put it on mine. Took the unbearable temps down to a comfortable level. It was absolutely unbearable in the summer. The only problem was it lifted the console up a bit and I had to push down a bit to put the screws in, but it wasn’t bad. 80mil I think.

Cheers ... Thanks for that...I thought it would be ok... but rather ask first before trying to take the stuff back out again haha.
Planning a long trip in a few weeks and Its Summer over here so it should make the trip alot less like a greenhouse on 4 wheels

Failed a coolant exhaust gas test and had some light milkshake on the underside of the valve cover. Worst sludge i've ever seen in an engine from god knows how many previous owners. Don't feel like putting a new head or head gaskets on a questionable 200k engine, sooooo engine out time. Good excuse for cleaning up the engine bay with the engine out at least. I'm within a few hours of Titan Engines so hopefully I can just drive down there and pick up a fresh reman engine.

Got around to installing a new shift knob and leather boot at least!

I think you should install a stroker...

What is the name of the manufacturer of the shift boot?

Quick question..... Does anyone know if you can put sound deadener on the transmission tunnel...I know it can get very warm which is why we have the foil protection on the side of the carpet but just not sure if I should slap some deadener in that area ??
Any ideas anyone ??

I put DEI tunnel shield under the tunnel the last time I pulled my transmission. I think it made a noticable difference...but not enough of one. My PO pulled all the carpet and bedlinered the floor top and bottom. I made a post somewhere about it with pictures.

Was the reward a back country pass that only pass holders can go on ?

we need a pass for vehicle access in all National forests that I'm aware of

Don't need pass for national forest in WA. State parks, yes. Now, if you're talking National Park, you will pay to enter with a vehicle.

Redline Goods. Shipped out of Poland of all places, but got to me quick enough and is good quality. Went that way to fix the rubber accordion boot interference after doing a transfer case drop.

Pulled the ome shocks off the Jeep while I’m waiting for the new black max shocks to arrive from fedex. One of the front shocks has lost its nitrogen charge and dang they both are hard as a rock to compress. No wonder my Jeep rides like a log truck. The back seem to be pretty good but I’m replacing them too.
With out shocks the Jeep rocks and rolls it’s hilarious to start it rocking.

Doing this interior between work and other jobs… finishing at 11.30pm the last 4 nights
Just doing the final piece now with a little help from my trusty friend in a can..
I will add that doing this in very high humidity is not the best haha

Then you know what I mean , you pick up a screwdriver and already you’re sweating …

Drove out to Crale Creek Road...my brush cutter just fit inside my TJ...along with two chainsaws, gas and a ton of other tools... volunteer crew of 10 brushed the hiking trail and cut out a 32" old growth hemlock that fell down the trail.

I thought V-Power was something only women possessed. Who knew NGK harnessed it for spark plugs.

In college my daughter was in the show they put on called the vagina monologues. She asked if I wanted a ticket. I can see supporting your children. I vagina'ed out. I did feel bad about it though

Not a lot of time tonight but enough to grab my Fedex package and mount them. Patience now and not to rush the wiring but I love this location for these light- just these and a set of good headlights does most of what I need.

Ordered a 3rd brake light. I'm a big F1 fan so that's the style I chose

Made it an appointment to get new windshield installed Monday morning after a trash truck put a rock in the middle of the present one at 65mph yesterday. Momma and I were on our way to lunch on a back road when it happened. Installer claims the one he is getting is the only one available locally. I claim BS to his claim.

Got a few new parts in today. New pilot bearing for the fly wheel, some new O rings for the injectors, new radiator hoses and a fuel injector tester. Since installing the injectors from the used engine I am running I have noticed a slight miss that I’m guessing is injector related so I’m going to clean and test my old ones and stick them back in while I do the same with the ones currently in my Jeep.
