I've done some stuff to the jeep. I can't remember if I said anything about the new gas tank skid I put on. I also got a new fan shroud to clean up the engine bay. I have a transmission leak in a soft line I need to fix that I've ghetto'd up for now. Then I put a new steering stabilizer on. Now with that and the drop pitman arm it smooth on the highway.

Repainted my grill and got a new passenger side bezel the other one was cracked.

Update on my dads jeep: it's drivable over the knuckle steering and closed cooling system. We also have a grand Cherokee zj brake booster to put on it next weekend. If all goes well we will be installing one on mine too.

Well my dads going to give me some 6.5" rusty's springs for free and some degree shims and some skyjacker shocks! Then I'm going to do a Dakota/s10 bastard pack, a longer drive shaft, and then raise my shock towers in the rear to give me more clearance and also more shock. I plan on doing it soon... If I'm really lucky maybe I'll get some new leaf packs. After that I'm also going to flip my tie rod over the knuckle and get a right hand drive drag link and do that over the knuckle. Pretty excited

I finally got stuck! I went up to porcupine dam with my dad. We went trying to find a challenge for his jeep and went down a trail that goes through mud to the bank. He had his tires 3/4's under mud and got out I went in in reverse after going forward through it and my whole front was under resting on the bumper and the back bumper tore up the ground behind me. Wish I got a pic but oh well. Looks like I need a locker

I've started making some lawn decorations to help pay for the jeep. It's not much but it's something. Oh and it's extremely fruity but it's money.

Haha that may be the only manly thing... But I own a jeep so its fine they make a man out of any one! I'm having the hardest time finding Horseshoes for these though if I did brand new shoes it would be around 4$ for one shoe and about 50$ a flower. I'd appreciate any one in Utah helping me find some for a cheaper price.

Oh and I almost forgot... My jeeps brown now! I found some deep mud up on a dirt road with my dad. His jeep is covered thick brown since his tires stick out so much.

I went down to hyrum reservoir with my jeep. The road that leads to the back side is pretty rough and flexed my jeep all the way out an took some good maneuvering to get back up. More reason to get a locker though. I wish I had a picture and could find a longer trail with this rough stuff.
