Got started on a cooling system refresh. Already have a new pump, radiator cap and thermostat installed.
Made a fan clutch removal tool from a scrap piece of the front bumper
Worked great.

I asked a different question above, but just saw your post. Mine is a 99 TJ, but I'm not sure what year seats, or even if my seats have been changed or just reupholstered. I know they don't match as far as one has plain vinyl on the sides and the other is all cloth all the way across.
Mine neither slide or tumble when I pull on the loop. I can get mine to tumble but I have to reach underneath and pull (or push?) on the lever to do so.
I'm really thinking my seats are really messed up. LOL
Ya gotta do what ya gotta do.This weekend, I started handling the joys of Fall (a.k.a. dealing with the mountains of leaves that the trees drop on the yard). Fortunately, there’s a mulch drop-off nearby:

I was able to take 7-8 full bags at a time, which isn't bad considering how small the TJ is.
Installed grabars and de-oxidized the orange turn lights.

Just an observation, but that hook looks like the type of Hook they use on flatbed wreckers for winching disabled cars up onto the flatbed, or a car trailer.Yesterday I bought this,

And today I took this off of the funky mount it was on, and got it ready to install on the mount I bought yesterday. I was going to reuse the bolts that were in the big mount but the PO used several different bolt sizes and I can't stand that. LOL I will go get some bolts tomorrow and get it mounted. Then we will have to run power wire to the front and back of the Jeep.

I know it is not a Warn, but it was free so can't complain.
Think this hook is big enough for a recovery hook? LOL It was the one that was on it. As you can see I removed it. Will be getting a much smaller one.

Judging by the looks of the old Mount that you have, that may be what this was used for at one time,
Had to throw my two cents in from someone who knows nothing about everything and something about nothing...
I used leftover 3M head light restoration kit that I used on my wife’s accord headlight. But you can basically do it by sanding it down with fine grit sandpaper then apply a wax. The 3M kit gives you a bit piece that you use with your power drill to sand and buff.Looks great..!!
What did you use on the front marker lights..??

Either that or spend $12 and buy a new set off amazon lolThanks,
I'll add that to my ever-increasing list of things to do...
I spent all day trying to clean my rig after wheeling in Badlands in Attica Indiana this weekend. Only 2 of us in jeeps all others were in side-by-sides.
