Fixed my charging issue .... replaced the Alt for a 105amp and put in a red top... however still had a problem figured out tonight it was a ground issue and some 8ga wire and some ring terms later the issue is fixed. .
Also replaced the headlight for a set of Delta xenon upgrades ... it will be cool to be able to see while driving at night ... lol no pics yet will get them tomorrow.

OK its been a while, But my Jeep and myself are still going.. The Jeep was put on the back burner for quite a few months as I have bee nhaving some major personnal issues I needed to sort out. However from a strange twist of fate my XJ went from a project to my Daily Driver 3 Months ago then due to an accident my wife had become the only vehicle in the family ...
Pretty much since the last update on my build, the winch has been installed, and the System has been wired.. also changed out the Head unit to a Pioneer unit with Bluetooth. I've also changed a hub bearing, front Calipers/pads/rotors, another alt, coolant res, and battery after the last time I took it off roading and caked the alt and Radiator in Clay. More recently I changed the thermostat and housing. But she is running strong and driving 60 miles a day... lol
More developments... I just scored a D44 and D30 from a older Cherokke that I will be installing on my truck, so the D44 will be a nice upgrade from my D35 and i'll switch the front to keep the gears matched.

Well Actually did some work to her last night... I FINALLY hooked up the roof lights .... (Only took me a year to do)

Also, because the company I work for does Disaster Relief and Snow removal, I have a service light .... just a magnet mount I use when I need it... Took it off last night but not before snapping a pic, lol
