What did you do to your TJ today?

If it stops the boiling coolant in the puke bottle after shutdown (despite perfectly good/normal engine temps while running), I'll be happy. Temp *seems* to be slightly lower, but its only been driven 40 miles and the weather cooled off.
I was working until 5:30 am. Gotta get a nap in sometime.
Spent 6 hours tonight working on the regear/locker install on my dana35. Not done yet lol, but ready for final assembly
Are you happy with the reception with the antenna mounted there? How did you ground the antenna mount?
Since I just installed it hard to say. I had my son use his to test it and make sure everything worked and that was fine. I think I’m missing something on grounding these ghost antennas. I just mount them to a bracket and haven’t had any issue. I have them installed on two JK’s and they work fine. Maybe if I ran a dedicated ground I’d get better reception? On our JK’s I have the antenna mounted as high as the hardtop. I went with this style to see how well it works and I may switch it to the 6db antenna.

I noticed how the only vehicles that can handle all that terrain and elevation are Jeep Wranglers. Yes, they are in a class of their own. So glad I got one. Awesome Pictures.
I got the half-doors and Bull Dawg uppers installed:
At least it says ARB and not ABR

What was that old saying about dressing for the job you want not the one you have hahaha
At least it says ARB and not ABR
I'm gonna paint it red and then make it say ABR and see how long I can go before someone notices haha
Replaced my winch wireless remote. It was about 10 years old (ish) and just stopped working. $35 and 10 minutes later the wireless remote works again. Also instlaled my new AEV third brake light to make things a bit more legal.

Cursed at my stuck pitman arm. 3-arm puller I had was not the tool for the job, picking up the correct one today.
Not today but this weekend:
Finalized installation of cruise control on my daughter's 2004 Wrangler
Installed GMRS radio in my 1998 Wrangler.
Installed rebuilt mopar power steering pump (I rebuilt it with a Gates bearing and seal kit) in my son's 2003 Wrangler.
No photos as I was too busy doing the work.

No. I bought all OEM components on ebay, etc. I had to wire everything since her Jeep didn't have anything except the correct clock spring. It wasn't difficult. It was just time consuming.
Was hot enough to melt the balls off a brass monkey this weekend, so not too much...but I decided to remove the step bars on a whim early yesterday morning to see how she looked. I don't have an issue with them on but I also don't make use of them, I'm 6'5" and step in and out directly. I think I like it better without them, doesn't look as bottom heavy...and I swear it felt lighter on the highway today...
