Alternator died in the Jeep on Friday. Got it towed home, then swapped out the alternator on Sunday.


Battery ultimately died Sunday night after an outing with the girlfriend. Replaced the battery this morning. Good to go now. I hope.

Well, my last update is from almost 2 years ago. Sooo here we go.
Replaced front axle seals and added armored diff covers.




Did some wheeling


Killed some leaf springs

And various other things


Have a rear bumper ordered from AJs offroad. Need to replace the driver's side lift springs, install bump stops I just received, cut and fold the lower rear quarter panels, install rear bumper whenever I get it, and that'd be it for a while.

Forgot I also did the balljoints and a few other things here and there.
My rear bumper ships on Monday. I'll be doing bump stops this weekend.

niCE.did you do a bastard pack,or are the rear springs new lift springs?
Front axle shafts now have new ujoints installed.
Also opened up my rear diff to try and figure out where I have a noise coming from. It sounds like a bad ujoint, but very inconsistent. I do know it is coming from back the back somewhere.
The ring gear has a very slight gash on it. Not sure if this can be the cause of the noise, but makes me think its time for me to find another 8.25 soon.

Rear end is groaning pretty badly now so the Jeep gets to sit there until I can find a replacement 8.25 to build. Which sucks since my DD is out until Friday.
