Don't go spend money on a used carpet if yours is in good shape. Pull it and take it down to the car wash with about 3 dollars. Power wash it using the soap mixture then go back over it with clean water. Take it home and hang it up. If the weather is good it'll dry out in about half a day. Then spray it with some lysol (to kill any mildew) and reinstall. The best part about this is it'll get rid of any coffee stains at the same time. I do this to every car I buy and it is amazing the crap that gets washed out.

Good advice here if your carpet is in good shape. I pull my carpet every once in awhile to clean it with a pressure washer. The OEM carpet is rubber backed, hang it to dry afterwords. Pull the old insulation off the back though and throw it in the trash.

Epic. Absolutely love it. Makes me want to find some wood vinyl for my white Wagoneer. You've done everything I plan to do!

Tail pipe decided to separate itself from the muffler... again. Took it off.

Also noticed gear oil all over the passenger rear wheel and pinion seal looks to be going out too. Time to get me a new rear axle. I hope I get lucky and find a D44.

Everything is here. going to run to O'Reillys to get longer lug bolts, new parking brake shoes, and see about some shocks. Hopefully we'll be able to get the rear completed tomorrow. Then just need to see about putting the control arms in on the front, some V8 ZJ springs, and new shocks.
