Today I installed Grill Inserts from Drake Mfg. They went in easy and make it look a lot better.

What did you do to your TJ today?

Washed the LJ with a little help from my apprentice. Here's to hoping that it's the last wash before I pull the hard top.
Don't jinx it! It may rain before you take the top off!

After quite a bit of searching, I have found my paint color is Emerald Green Metalliac!
Now THAT's a bumper you don't see every day...it brings back memories of the YJ/CJ 'bumperettes'...Nice job repainting.

I installed the Hoist A Top Simple from Lange, needless to say it was not exactly simple. The mounting hardware for the crank did not allow the the spool to be installed. The problem was solved by cutting 1/4 inch off the bolt head. I also converted the pulley system to a side wall mount with an eyelet. [

Drove my new TJ for the first time in heavy wind at freeway speed (55 mph). White knuckle event! I fully understand the notion of driving a brick!

I have never seen a bumper quite like that. What's up with the single marker light on the right side?

Thanks...The bumpertte's are handy when the kids climb in and out of the back seat plus handy to stand on when needing more traction to the back wheels.

Ive never seen a bumper like this on any forum or driving around...but its handy (see previous message) Not sure what you calling a marker light though .... if your talking about the single red light its for 'Foggy conditions' when the rear tale lights aren't bright enough to bee seen from behind.

Today I cleaned the Throttle Body, IAC, tested for fuel pressure bleed down, (yep, it bleeds down), tested fuel pressure,(48psi, I need a pressure regulator), checked the brakes,(pads and shoes are good), cleaned the stock wheels and tires and installed them.

Well... you scared me with that post so I said F it and took it off today [emoji16]
Left the trektop in the sun all freaking day and still had a hell of a time getting it zipped. Will be getting a guy at work to make me some zipper pulls out of paracord.
Just picked up this Bestop Supertop with tinted windows for a screaming deal, can't wait to put it on :jump:
Be careful trying to muscle the zippers, they can be pulled apart with too much force.
