Went to the parts store today and picked up a few things needed.

Case of mobile one
mobile one oil filter
champion double platinum spark plugs
Bosch high performance wires
Bosch distributor cap
New exhaust tip because the last one got crimped shut on a rock from last weekend lol
New fog lights
K&N Air Filter

Hopefully this weekend I'll get it all on lol oh and everything only ran me $148!!! Almost felt like armed robbery lol

To be honest i'd take the carpet out, i've gotten mine wet a coup,e times and even after vacuuming it with a fullsize truckmount carpet cleaning machine it took WEEKS to dry.

JerseyJeeper

Hmmmm very interesting idea I might steal that idea if I cant get the dents out with my dent puller.

JerseyJeeper

Eh true and if for some terrible reason it gets wet again it wont be as bad

Well I did a few things over the weekend while I had time.

Did an oil change which took way longer than expected due to an awful filter that crushed when I turned it. I ended up putting a screw driver through it and turning it that way because it was so stubborn. This is the last time I use a NAPA filter.




I also got some time to install some rear fog/driving lights on the roof rack.



Tailgaters beware

They've got two different beams in the them. One is a fog in yellow and the other is a driving beam in white.

I ran the wires down inside the hatch mainly because I'm too scared to drill into the roof.



Well that's all for now enjoy it.

Very nice!!! I really have to get a roof basket....Well, after I get my lift and tires done.

JerseyJeeper

It's awesome for carrying stuff out on the trails and I highly recommend it that everyone have one for extra gear.

Bimmer_2002

Yeah, I'll do like everyone does and put a spare, a Jerry can and a high lift.

JerseyJeeper

I need a highlift so bad lol

Haha, I like the rear fog lights. Those are perfect for those jerk offs that continue to use their high beams as they tailgate you. Anytime someone has their high beams on behind me and refuse to take the hints, I just pull over and let them pass. Then I get up right behind them and turn my high beams on so they get a taste of their own medicine. I'd have to say I'm a bit of an aggressive driver. I've been considering a roof rack, but only for spare cargo. I'm a little weary on keeping a spare up top because of the whole high center of gravity. Have you notice any excess teeter-tottering when going on some sideways inclines?

JerseyJeeper

Not at all. I practically had the whole thing sideways at Rausch Creek and felt nothing different at all. It's noisier with it up there because of the wind that's all.

96Cherokee113

Haha, noise is my last concern. My drivers door barely even closes anymore and there's like a half inch gap at top, so I've learned to enjoy the wind. That along with the bad pinion bearing in the rear makes me crank up the radio to drown out the wind and howling bearing.

JerseyJeeper

Hahaha I do the same to drown out my fan belt squealing lol

JerseyJeeper

Did a little home made T-case drop to prep for another 1.5" of lift. I know I'll end up with vibes if I didn't put it on. Once I have enough saved up for a SYE I'll be putting that on. For now this will do.

Nice jeep. It did pretty well at rausch.

Just wondering, Why use 3/8" wall 1" tube? The hole is only going to be a 1/4" hole. Many sliders use .120". I wanna do sliders, I'm not gonna have the tube on the side, but if I did, I would use 1 1/2"x.250 DOM.
