Been getting a creaking/popping noise when turning the steering wheel for about a week. Finally lifted the front end and had someone move the wheel back and forth to find the problem. The steering box was a little loose. Re-torqued the bolts down and all is well again.

Used a little bit of Tuff Stuff to clean up some of the interior of the Jeep, stuff works amazing on that carpet. Although its not an XJ, but washed the SRT-4 as well.

Any tips for cleaning engine bay? Cleaned the outside and inside of the Jeep, but the engine bay is all muddy

Pounded pinch seam back in front wheel wells. Clears the 36 tsl nicely. Now time for bumpstops.

Not TO it, but FOR it.

Heading out on a 2.5hr each way roadtrip to pick up a used 3.5" lift for my XJ, a used 2" budget boost with shocks for a girl's 98 XJ and a power steering pump for a friends 98 XJ. Taking the Mowawk trail (a road, NOT a trail, lol) and it's gonna be gorgeous out! AND ITS FRIDAY!!!!
