What did you do to your TJ today?

[Duner]

I do as much as I can myself for the same reasons…. But I certainly don’t trust myself with a gearbox ..

At this point the only things I haven’t done are welding/body work, transmission/ axle rebuilds. Clutches on the other hand I think are manageable

I don’t think I’d have any problems pulling it apart…. Putting it back together correctly without any bits left over is where I would come unstuck

Somehow I managed to not end up with a single left over bolt on my rebuild, and I was terrible at labeling things in the very beginning LOL

No bolts left over ??? You mustn’t be doing it right then… you should always have bolts left over, it’s like an unwritten rule

I had one nut left over but I ended up finding it’s home… unless I dropped one somewhere *gulp*

Had some alone time this afternoon. Picked up some rags, a spray bottle of Simple Green+water and cleaned the engine bay.

It looks good!

I need to do that to my 2.5, it is wrapped in a cocoon of caked-on sludge. However, I'm convinced that all of the sludge is acting like a scab and sealing multiple oil leaks (not a drop of oil is on the garage floor). I'm waiting for a weekend when I also have enough time to replace the valve cover gasket and various grommets.

Changed oil and filter and took Mason for a driving lesson. He can now shift to 4 of the 6 gears.

Here’s 2 though 6.

So far I've replaced the hood footman loop with the Vector Offroad JK footman loop delete.

The day is still young

Why?

 

[mjonesjr84]

Why?

I don't and wont use it and I was tired of looking at it. Why not?

Good enough reason for me. Just curious I guess.

Picked up some lockable storage off Facebook today. Thinking about making a cover out of carpeting or something to make it a little more dog friendly in the sun.

Waiting for the rain to stop so I can drop the 2.4 back in

Got another layer of wax on today after a short drive with the new PCM, hopefully it will allow most of the dust to easily rinse off.

 

[TheBoogieman]

Went by to start it and let it run for a few minutes. Hopefully I'll be able to replace the sensors this week, if my back lets me. Still painful even trying to jump up in it.
p.s. It kills me not to drive it daily. Stress relief at its best.

Too bad not closer, I’d come over and help out.
