hey man, sucks that you bought a new tranny just to find out it was fine...i woulda thought it was something electrical first...i havent really heard of a bad jeep tranny. and awesome brake lights! i put two strips of leds on the inside of each window, heres a pic. also i got those type of fog lights, put them on, and they said 55 watts....my 35 watt walmart lights were brighter. and in 2 weeks the black painted screws and bolts are completely rusted...waste of $20 haha.

Just picked up an old school cb radio for 25 cents at a garage sale
and the I made a waterproof pa system speaker housing with sheet metal and electric tape and drywall screws (the cone of the speaker is pushed in)

mounted it under my master cylinder

sounds great! And waterproof!! For now

i dont think i like those taillight covers very much haha. i just painted the flairs and bumpers on mine...took alittle longer then i thought...but i did 2 coats primer...2 coats color....2 coats clear coat...hopefully it wont come off anytime soon.
also mount the foglights above the bumper...if you do any offroading youll agree with me....i had some cheapo walmarts mounted under bumper cause i liked the way it looked...didnt last long haha. filled up with sand and water....

Yes, if you have a Dana 35 rear the disks out of a ZJ will bolt right in, you need everything from thr backing plate out and a new proportioning valve for the ZJ. If you have the 8.25 its the same deal you can use the ZJ ones or you can use the ones from a liberty as well.
