It will be a few months before that happens.

I did install my ghetto blasters. I definitely don't need two twelves, but what the hell. They were free.

FML. Both twelves exploded when I played some Cypress Hill. Good thing they were free. I guess I will buy some subs now.

I now have heat. I thought i did a good job of blowing the core out, but i didnt until today. That's pretty awesome. Lol

I got some brand new 31x10.50x15 Cooper off brand(Starfire) tires for free today. I didnt realize my Xj would look kinda goofy with 31's and no lift, but hopefully that will be remedied in the next couple of months. I will post pics tomorrow.

Yep. My dad surprised me when he called and said he bought me tires. He never does stuff like that. Then again, I shouldn't expect him too. I am 37 years old after all. Lol

Here are the new shoes. Very good road manners with little to no tire roar.

It looked goofy at first since the previous tires were small and wore the #@&$ out!

If I would've had the cash, I passed a very decent looking Comanche a few weeks ago for $1200. If I could find a job in my field(X-ray tech) I would have the cash for my project(s).

Resprayed my rims with satin instead of flat. It looks ten times better. I also put a few decals on.

I had to remove the front passenger seat and the door panel since my wife can't handle her alcohol any longer. The smell was horrendous. Got it all cleaned up and smelling great, and I have reinstalled the seats and door panel. I did scuff and paint the seat frame while I had it pulled.

That was almost a situation that called for a divorce. I was cleaning my jeep out at 330 am.
