How about “Low CG” and “Rock out with your snorkel out”
My son was home from college for Thanksgiving and had to get in his "Jeep Time". He was out riding dirt bikes with one of his buddies and snapped this picture right before sunset.

I first saw that ad about a month ago and live not from it but haven't worked up the motivation to take a 10 mile trip. If you drove the 3 (or so) hours to check that out, I wish I knew you were heading this way, we could have met up, had a coffee or beer and talked Jeeps.
FWIW, I see that ad is from akroncanton.craigslist. Akron and Canton are both a good 40+ miles west of my neighborhood but that South Avenue dealer is about 10 miles to the east of me.

I don't think I'm getting my parts any time soon...seems instead of heading south from Portland to my place they missed a little to the west...

Replacing the battery. It had a Di-Hard 65 series battery. What's interesting is the battery is dated 3-12. Almost 12 years old!
Replaced it with a 65 series AGM battery from Wal-Mart ($179.00 before tax).

Welp getting done painting fenders,treating a bit of rust in the cowl area.
Got done seam sealing the brakebooster panel part thing? ..... only did the top portion since the ugly factory foam sealer stuff was looking ugly,since I'm respraying the firewall I figured I'd make it look pretty
Edit- Realized how big of an idiot i am and used 400 grit to smooth out the fenders instead of 600 so now im gonna have to sand down and respray
Why you may ask ? i can see the sanding marks on the whole fender from the rougher sand paper....
Note the 3M stuff is the same color so 400-600 uses the same color, Ya live and ya learn

Went from the above to this picture below.
Filled up with fresh coolant, topped off the ATF.
Ran it in the shop and got it up to temp 3 times, topped it off one last time.
Took it for a 30 mile test drive, pulled it back in the shop and everything was perfect.
I'm calling it a good day!!!!
Got some high mileage conventional oil and filters to change the oil in both Jeeps. FWIW, STP and Fram make it too. Not just Pennzoil.
Twice now I've lived the joke about how if the CEL is off in a TJ it must be that the bulb is burned out. At least this time the bulb wasn't supposed to be lit. Daughter's jeep now has a fully functioning dash. #74 bulb if you're interested.

I had the Alpine ILX-W650 installed. Great price and free install at Best Buy. Note: I set the time after taking the picture.
What do y'all use to clean the engine compartment, looking at my pictures mine is pitiful!!!
Torque values on the back, like bands do with their tour dates.
I’m liking it.
“Shift with this hand” and an arrow toward the wrist on the right sleeve.
“Air Freshener here”at the armpits.
@RINC gets a “hoodie.”
LJ drivers sizes come in long.
Blank spot to wipe with for death wobble.
Mounted the heated seat switches in the pod and just enjoyed it all evening.
If you have a good seat covers I really recommend the heated seat kits they’re easy to put in and they work just like stock equipment in any car. They are only like $55.
