Nice job on the jeep man so since the c101 elimination have you noticed a difference in how it runs?

 

I haven't driven it anywhere, just cranked it for a sec. Ill drive it aomw today and let you know

 

Yeah.....sorry hadn't checked your thread in a while. I'm just south of Huntsville. IF you ever get a chance to come up this way and ride, let me know.

 

Drove it today. No difference in driving/running. Of course it was never really bad to begin with. Next weekend im gonna wire up a trailer harness, and do a couple other little odd and ends.

 

Took a few pics. Really needing paint lol

 

Im up near there on occasion. My wifes sister lives close to huntsville. We deff need to get together.

 

Not alot today, changed the factory o2 sensor. Quite nasty

 

Inspection service on my rear diff. Looked good but found a bad bearing at the wheel. Painted my rear diff for my lil girl

 

Gonna service the front next weekend. Gotta wait till my front lube locker comes in. Might need to do some cleaning as well =/

 

Its been a while since I've done anything to my jeep, life seems to stand in the way sometimes. Anyways, figured I'd post up what I'm working on. My fancy new front tires started wearing on the outside pretty quickly, so I jacked it up and sure enough I had a lot of play. So I ordered some fancy new parts. Hub assemblies, ball joints, wheel u joints, brake pads, and rotors.

 

I got a late start today after work but feel like I got a good bit done, removed (from both sides) the brakes, hubs, and shafts. Got the new wheel u joints installed, tried using my ball joint service tool but wouldn't budget them. Ended up using my go to tool, the brass BFH and an 18mm impact socket. Worked like a charm.

 

Well I finally got finished today, got the new ball joints in, reinstalled my axles with new u joints. Painted my spindles yesterday, my little girl helped. Put new hubs on the fresh ceramic pads and rotors. Gonna clean up and drive it to make sure I don't have any crazy noises or vibrations

 

Well I drove it a little yesterday, then to work this morning and nothing crazy. Next project is to dig into the AC yet again. It didn't work when I got the jeep. I replaced the compressor, accumulator, and exp valve and charged it. Blower never worked right as I only had high speed. Now the blower won't turn on and the condenser fan is loud and whining. Gonna replace the both of those. Already replaced the blower resistor. Also gotta replace my heater core before this winter.. The list goes on

 

Big update today. Found a front d44 for it. It'll almost be free, just gotta put a new thermostat in the guys house. Still on the fence about the rear, can't decide on a built 8.8 or do a built 9. Ordered my new heater core, and HVAC blower.

 

My fun weekend projects, what joy. I hate having to pull the dash out of anything, but I need heat this winter. New heater core and blower motor. New aux fan probably won't be here till next week so that'll have to wait.
