Anybody who's reading I gotta question. I'm pretty sure I know the answer but I want some opinions. My front brakes started vibrating really bad on my way to work this morning. I would assume the rotor is warped, the pads are messed up, or there's something caught in between the two. If I replace the pads and rotors it should fix it right?

Just changed the front brakes. Holy crap the drivers side was so gone. Passenger side looked okay but I replaced both sides. Pics in the morning. Don't know how to link them from photobucket on my phone so I'll take care of that at work tomorrow

Just ordered my welder from Harbor Freight. Should be here sometime next week. I figured I'd just spend the 7 bucks to get it shipped instead of driving almost an hour to get to the closest one to me.

Brought the trailer into work today so we could load up a giant skid of old scrap drawers to take to recycling in the morning. I just thought the XJ looked really cool with the trailer behind it haha

Alright all of a sudden today on my way to work the jeep sounded like it was either misfiring or backfiring. I know I have a check engine light because of my downstream O2 sensor because everything after the down pipe in my exhaust fell off. Anybody have any ideas why it would just randomly start doing this? I would thing maybe IAC but while idling and sitting there it's fine. I'm confused on this one.

The Plug in vacuum. Box on firewall. I'm guessing. Possible. Culprit fuel relay or pump, filter or injection. Issue it goes on man
