What did you do to your TJ today?

Bud I think we had 1/2 a free day while there. My wife had most of our time booked up before we ever left the states.
But on a side note, I now know how you got the ducks in POTM. Every duck I seen in NZ would literally eat out of your hand! I have pictures to prove it.
Beautiful country, if I ever go back we will be renting a sprinter van so we can enjoy the country side. My only beef would be you guys don’t show college football. Nobody cares about cricket ;)

Reverse LED light bulbs in my stock tailight housings to make reversing in my new spot easier.

Pretty sure I have a bad cylinder in mine. Every now and then it will grab and skid the rear driver side just by tapping the pedal. Where did you get the replacements?

I just went to a local autozone and gave them my year and model and they had em in stock.
 
Finally fixed my center console lid! Now it's actually attached again. Also sprayed some lock lube on the lock for it so the button doesn't stick. Went ahead and got all the outside locks too: drivers side was being a little finicky but seems better now.

Also had some annoying clunk I would get when turning right at a higher speed than a TJ ought to. After looking all under the suspension, torquing things down to spec and thinking about changing sway bar links (the bushings on them are shot) over the past couple months I found out my battery tie down was somehow missing (a "WTF" moment, believe me). Ordered a new one (discarded the tray) and put it on last night: no more clunking!

Not sure what next yet, I got a whole list, really thinking about just doing some more interior stuff though like butt warmers, LEDs all around, floor mats, seat covers, etc. So much to do, so little time (and money!)

Mine was sticking, it was a little annoying and I probably would have just left it alone but I had to take it out to fix the lid. So I just removed it, sprayed it with some brake cleaner, let it dry, then hit it inside and out with some graphite lock lube and worked the parts a bunch.

Feels good to have the lid be able to close and latch. Question though, as I don't remember from my last TJ: when you press the button does the lid pop up a little when it's unlatched?
 
It is me or did the forum delete some posts from this evening?

I wheeled about 10 miles total today after work! It was dark so didn’t get any pics. But the whiskey I sipped on was smooooth! Had a chick that wanted to get wild, so stayed out there longer than usual. I need a lj, the back seat is sooooo tiny!

Personally only witnessed it this time. Maybe @Chris broke something?

I upgraded to the latest forum software version and it broke everything. I had to restore a backup from earlier today (the most recent one I had).

So that's why there's some missing content from about 3 PM until 6 PM roughly.
