What did you do to your TJ today?

Years of lifting heavy weights caused all my other issues (spine, shoulder issues, 5 hernia surgeries and two detached bicep tendons that were never fixed.) I still lift weights anyway. :cool:
Bicep tendon detached while doing kipping pull-ups. We heard it pop across the gym even with the music blasting. Never fixed it or the torn rotator cuff. I'm no worse for it at this point. My knees.. those are a different story. They just don't "knee" too reliably any more.
 
Since it was warm enough earlier (30 degrees) and the snow hasn't started again yet, I decided to visit my TJ and take it to the car wash to clean the 4 lbs of road salt off it. The frame was surprisingly clean, the tub, not so much.

I’m not sure I’ve seen this Jeep without Chucky
 
Went scouting for illegally dumped trash...made a reel on my Trash and Trail page on FB.

People can really suck sometimes. Thank you for doing what you do. I do my best to pick up small trash along the trail but it’s good to see people cleaning up the big stuff
 
Both my truck and Jeep sit baking in the coastal SC sun so I'm with you there that wipers don't last long because of that.

Spent $8 for the last set on the truck and they lasted a whole year! I'll be pissed if the set I spent $24 lasts the same time.

Put some foam split tube pipe insulation over them. That’s what I do with my motorhome & the wiper blades last forever.

We volunteer in Texas State Parks & the vehicle we use to make rounds in the campground is also called “The Popemobile”. ☺️

I switched to SilBlades.. Going on two years now and they are still great. Cheap ain't good and good ain't cheap.

I am still using the 13" Sillblades on my LJR that I bought in 2004! 20 yrs of So TX run didn't hurt them. Now I'm in No GA where we had flurries this year. I wish the windshield was holding up as well as the Sillblades.
