Nice fix, and counter tops. We have the same ones and love them.
I was able to find a new to me defrost panel at Davies for a very reasonable $25.
What did you do to your TJ today?

I replaced the clear running lights with original orange which involved me digging out the parts Jeep in the freezing cold and snow yesterday. All that just for my dad to accidentally bump and break one on the side 
I cleared off the 10" of snow from my jeep today here in Virginia Beach.

Planning for an upcoming RV trip and want to be able to fit the bikes on the back of the TJ so I needed to tuck the back tire in a bit to accommodate. It also looked like crap and hanging off that far is putting too much leverage on the hinges.

Great fix... Have to put that on my list of "to-do for myself."
Then oil change on a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Damn things are like an East LA lowrider.
That's why I like the TJ,
easier access.

Driving home from grocery shopping this morning…. And bam!! 
instantly sounded like I was driving a diesel….
Had a look underneath and looks like one of the exhaust mounts broke loose and tore a hole in the exhaust right above the skid plate.

When I built my skid plate, I had to cut the exhaust off right passed the starter to fit and reroute. I've been lazy and not put it back together yet. 4.0s sound scary raw @80 lol

Yeah it would be deafining too.... I'm not driving her now till Thursday when she booked it to get welded up again..
First weekend I haven't worked in about 6 weeks so now my weekend away is down the toilet.
( I seem to be going through a phase of breaking shit on the TJ at the moment, its doing my head in haha)
Took everyone apart and looks like I’ll be ordering some parts. The arms have me thinking the PO was a plumber. Only tool he owned was clearly a pipe wrench.

Went back to the lake-all this is spring “pre- fishing “ to find the fish-
The crappie no showed. It was so cold my minnow net froze. 19 degrees. Ice was a problem on line guides.
We are fishing hard this weekend- will see what happens.

Drove Ruby to the local HAM VE and took my tech exam, and passed. Should have a call sign in a few days, probably Monday.
How fast did you have to drive to clear it off?

Its a TJ... the pic was taken after he drove fast to clear it off haha
How did you run the wire through the tailgate for the camera?.. This aspect has been keeping me from plugging the camera into my Alpine set-up.

Make him pay the $6 for a new one.
That doesn’t look like the kinda beaches I’m used too.
Time to move to the US and the south.

I think he was referring to the topless midget beaches down there.
Warm up the Jeep, turn the heater on, and that powdery stuff melts. It's against the law in Va to drive with snow/ice on top of your vehicle. Too many lazy idiots here that drive on the highway and that crap blows off, hitting other vehicles windshields.
