Drove that bad boy to work this morning! What a view! Taking it to the shop on the way home for a Regear!
What did you do to your TJ today?

That's more of a "I'm cool and know it" face.
Maybe "my Jeep is cool, and I know it"
I haven't been cool since the 80's
Just old and ugly now.
My wife always complains about getting old. I tell her, it sure beats the alternative.
p.s. This was my best "smiley face" pic. Camera broke after taking it.

Is that after she smacked you around?

Actually, the local Cops did that (broken nose).
p.s. My wife does more damage.
It's mostly financial though. The wounds are deeper and last much longer.

Not sure, but mine was done in 1979, don't think roadkill was thought of then
Well they got the idea from you then.

The original roadkill came about when Granny of the Beverly Hillbillys used to make Possum stew for Jethro.

Removed the rear seat and installed a toolbox to hold my gear. Mounted the Sound Storm Labs powered sub to the front of it. Leaves enough room for the dog back there.
Also replaced the speedo gear on the transfer case. It's been a tad off, first when I got the 35" tires, and then the other way when I got the 5.38 gears installed. The speedo is now dead on, according to the GPS app on my phone.

You have to peel back the cloth cover on the rollbar and remove the Styrofoam padding underneath. It has two clamps that go on the rollbar and that is where you bolt on the t-bracket. The t-bracket has a lip and that is where you place the shelf. Finger tighten everything to make sure you have it lined up correctly and then snug it down. It does not interfere with anything.
If you need them, I will take more pictures tomorrow. I am at night school tonight.
