Had a set of Gamblers given to me for the MJ. Now I'm thinking I can polish up the lips and paint the center either black or gunmetal. What do yall think?
I'd paint it black to go with your theme...
This week has been insane...Wednesday and Thursday was so bad I felt like my head was going to explode...had to pour iced water on my head to cool down
Just recently bought a booney to not burn myself with the sun...
Sun and bald head don't match well...

Sweet! I've been wanting to do a set of flush mounts as back up lights on mine too. That's the perfect spot!

Worked all day in my garage on Thursday. I was definitely feelin' the heat. Thankfully the big beast shop fan that my dad made 30 years ago is still going strong and moves air around really well. I've got a side door on the garage that allows for a cross breeze too and that side of the house is in the shade so it cools things down pretty well.... y'all defintely be careful down there though - that humidity doesn't allow your body to cool off real well.

Sup guys, been hell of a week. friday afternoon i change gear oil in front and rear diffs. Coming home from work afterwards, Right caliper siezes up. So saturday morning at work have parts guys order me a new right caliper, and pads and rotors for both sides. Throw everything on. Bleed right side first, good. Go to crack left bleeder open. Bleeders siezed up. Still pedal goes to floor after bleeding right side barley have brakes on my way home. Messed with it for a hour today rounded off the bolt to try to hopefully be able to gravity bleed both sides, and rear. But Awsome. Buy new caliper today.i will Put it on tomorrow when i can use the lifts and my airimpact to pull lug nuts off of wheels. And i need to buy new track bar and track bar frame mount cause the old factory frame mounts is oveled out, so everytime i turn mny wheels left or right from center i get this huge bang cause the track bar, is slaming back and fourth in that one hole where the ball joint is in the frame mount.

Can't remember if you have a 2.8L in that one or not. If so, I have a spare one coming out of an 86 MJ.
