TPS thew codes otw home last night. Had very light throttle or heavy throttle else it bucked like a mule. Broke two t20 torx bits and then....drumroll....snapped the head off of one screw. Guess its time for an intake overhaul.

So much hate for the engineer that decided those screws needed that much loctite ><

More LEDs for the interior swap

20 black lug nuts, I believe they're one piece it didn't say anything about it in the description but they don't look like capped ones. The thread goes all the way down the inside. Only $25. Not bad.

Gonna throw on the lugs and rotate tires, and throw the LEDs in while helping my dad put a 1" body lift on his YJ.

My lugs look the same, except purple. Be careful and use one of those fancy pants non marking sockets. I didn't and as careful as I was they got scratched up pretty good, and that was with a 6 point and no impact.

Got the other rear shock in, it went much faster than taking the old one off. Then I cut out what was left of the PS rocker panel. Only did a rough cut and need to clean it up with the grinder when I get a chance.

Done playing with it for this week, tomorrow I need to tinker with the Stealth and take some pictures of the work I have done so far on the Jeep. Spending the weekend pet sitting for my brother, then weather permitting I will be back to playing/working on the Jeep. I hope have my HD rockers in and at least one quarter panel replaced by this time next week.

I put em on without an impact no scuffs/marring yet. I don't even care about the finish having matching not chrome crusty *** lugs is good to me. Lol. this is what came off

Pretty sure they're not aluminum. Not at $25 lol. They're definitely one piece though and I would recommend them to fellow jeepers. I absolutely hate the capped lugs.

A shot of the stock bulbs next to LEDs for the foot well. World of difference. Had to order a few more LEDs because the other overhead lights are different. But the foot wells, rear cargo and HVAC lights are all LEDs. I'll see if I can get a good night pic.
