What did you do to your TJ today?

Replaced the OEM top on my 2002 with the Bestop sailcloth. After 17 years it was time to retire the original one :)

Installed a Rugged Ridge TC drop kit for now, good kit but no instructions. Correct me if I'm wrong but i torqued bolts down to 50 ft lbs. Also was a bit of a struggle because plate shifted on me while lowering it down and bolts would not align correctly was getting worried lol but managed to use strapps to pull it. Also installed some pillar spot light brackets i got from Amazon for $13 not bad suprised they where pretty good but the the body bolts were a pain to remove. Just need to do the wiring for lights.
New issue now i think after installing tc drop drove it shakes a little more on iddle and sounds like a tractor lol i think it might be the catalytic converters or exhaust. Is this a never ending saga ugh.... Lol

Pulled the steering column apart to try and figure out why i have movement in the wheel (up down).
After looking at everything I give up and put everything together. Still isnt tight but its livable.

Also made a mental note to remove the winch ground along with the jeep ground. (Duel post battery) i was confused at first when i reattached the positive wire and the lights came on. While looking at the ground wire hanging loose.
