And while I was changing my oil, I figured out why my cruise control isn't working.

If you can't tell, the small vaccume line between the servo and the main vaccume line is cracked in half.

Looking good. I've always liked the ZJ's wish I would have bought one when I was first looking for a vehicle. Keep it up I'll be watching to see where this goes.

Its about time someone read this! anyways im tossing around the idea of a 2" BB and 30s instead of the full 3.5" kit and 31s because honestly, i would never need 3.5" and 31s where i plan to do all of my wheeling. it will be alot cheaper this way. also thinking maybe 1.5" BB and doing an up country conversion.
I wish shipping wasnt so damn expensive! found a gas tank skid on ebay for 34 bucks, but 88 bucks for shipping!!! found a transfer case skid on ebay, same seller, for 14 bucks, but 49.99 for shipping!! front skid for i think 20 bucks but 67 bucks shipping!!!!

took the ZJ instead of my moms patriot today on a trip to the lawn mower shop (im a small engine mechanic out of my garage) about 30 miles away. ran great, but on the way home it started to run a little hot (around 230) and oil pressure dropped a little (to around 20 psi). i was only a couple miles from home so i babied it the rest of the way. part of me is hoping everything is ok, another part is hoping my engine is on its way out. it would give me a great reason to swap in a 5.9

Who makes a good set of sway bar disconnects that will work with a 2 inch BB that arent super expensive? rough country's are the cheapest ive seen but it says they only work with 3.5" to 6" lifts.

While working under the front end on the jeep, I noticed a 4 pin trailer connector hanging down from inside the front bumper. I'm guessing this is for towing it behind an RV???

That's what I would assume it's for. Although I've never personally done that or seen it.

Wonder if that has something to do with the "rear lamp failure" message I was getting on the VIC before I unplugged it. The beeping is so annoying

Nice, I'm working on a 95 GC Laredo myself. Glad to see another 95 GC getting built up, I'm watching and maybe stealing your ideas lol.

Love the zombie stickers too, I have the big 9" around Zombie outbreak response vehicle stickers in my rear windows
