I wish. That would have been amazing. Lol

Definitely dude! I'm going to be running a 4.5 inch lift. I have it already but I'm going to do some things before I toss it on. I go to local places around here. Back in the woods. Nowhere really famous. I'd love to go to north Jersey.
Haha I'm still burlington county (on the border with mercer and ocean though) so I don't exactly consider my self north jersey were still 609! but yeah man hopefully by December everything will be on

Nice. You will get the 2inch lift and Def want to go bigger trust me. I did the same thing with my 95. That's why this time I'm going straight to 4.5.

Hung out with my jeep buddies tonight. Big day coming up tomorrow. Going to the junkyards first thing in the morning. Then onto everything else.

That huge puddle of oil is a 4 banger in a yj. It needs an oil pan gasket but he's too cheap to replace it. I did talk him into letting me replace his TPS tonight so that his CEL would go out and the motor would stop bucking like a bronco. Lol

Yeah that'd be great man. I'm to get a south jersey meet together sometime once everything settles down with the hurricane problems. Probably looking for late spring early summer so it's nice and warm. That's a good amount of work to do in only five days.

Had a good day today! Changed the oil, flushed and painted the diffs, and installed my exhaust. I also greased everything in between jobs.

Here are the diffs all full and painted. I'm really happy with them. They are going to look great once I toss my lift on.

Bummer, I was going to do my oil filter adapter o rings but my tool I made broke. So I guess it's going to have to wait until my next oil change... Yeah right. I'll be doing it this weekend. Lol

Threw some oil and a new air filter at her and called It a day.

To whoever asked to report on how the exhaust sounds: perfect. Not too loud and nice and deep. I love it!
