I finally got the new front axle u joints and wheel bearings installed. So when I was done with that I decided to see how far I could get.

Got the rear brake line hooked up, but can't seem to break the front lines loose, so they're gonna soak with wd40 overnight.

When I bought the jeep it was pouring out power steering fluid. It has been almost a year since i drove the Jeep. When I was checking fluids the other day I remembered how bad it was. After an investigation, I found that the fluid was coming from the pitman shaft in the gear box. Since I had to change the pitman arm I decided to buy the seal. I tried to replace the seal with the gear box in the jeep, but it wasn't going to happen.




This is a pic of the gear box out of the jeep after I changed the seal.

If you look closer you'll see how unfortunate I was when I was trying to remove it from the jeep.




Broke off all three bolts!!! Awesome!!
