Yesterday I painted my fenders where I trimmed them with gloss black and finished painting the 1st body line and bumpers.

I also dropped my front drive shaft off to be rebuilt. I picked up my 99 intake, brake parts from my last jeep, and ordered my APN header.

My old D windows are going on today with an alignment.

I had my D windows mounted last night and I washed it today after my final.

Now I need to get my money back for the 99 intake because it is cracked and will hurt my Jeep way more than it will help since I have a 98.

And my front drive shaft is toast. Gotta find another one soon.

Not much is going on currently with the Jeep. Just sold a few parts from my last Jeep so I have a little money now.

Went to the CPO Swap Meet this past weekend and decided to go wheeling in 2 wheel drive. When I did my rear end slid out and I ended up hitting a railroad tie. Dented my front bumper and cracker my front clip pretty bad. I have a bumper to replace it already when I do my tow hooks. Just need to get a front clip soon.

Still having bad vibrations at 55+ mph. Talked to Garrett Fabrication and he said double check the drive shaft balance. Looked earlier and sure enough, no balancing weights or any sign of where they would have been. I think the guy never balanced it. Its being balanced tomorrow.

Heres a picture of where I hit the railroad tie at the CPO swap meet.

New exhaust today with a major help from Garrett Fabrication. Its brand new from tip to tail including: APN header, new down pipe, thunderbolt spin cat, magnaflow muffler, and 2.5" down pipe.

It sounds great and is quiet at highway speeds.

My old header was in fact cracked fairly bad. Im excited to **** my neighbors off when I get home tonight.

No. Didnt feel like paying top dollar for a custom down pipe. Its stock.

Getting somewhere close to 20 mpg currently and hopefully after I change my CPS and put a clamp on my muffler that is only tacked in place It'll get better.

Have decided to stop spending money on this Jeep for things that are not 100% essential. I have plently of parts and things I can do to the Jeep that I already have. Plus maintenance.

Yeah they're both OBD2 so I would assume the same.
