Project: Keepin' it clean
Thanks!! And yeah, I'm excited. 350hp is fun, but 500+ would be funerer... Bwahahaaa
It wasn't THAT bad... Just lots of JKs... The store was nice to walk through and actually see the products in person that I usually drool over online
I'm still annoyed that I didn't register for the show soon enough, because when I went to register the spots were already sold out.
There was one Prodigy turbo'd JK and maybe one or two RIPP supercharged ones, but no supercharged Cherokees...
So, I wasn't that impressed... "Oh look. Another lifted JK on 35-37" tires..."
I'm more impressed with a Cherokee on 35-37" tires that still looks clean. Even more impressed if it's boosted... Lol.

At least the Ford and Blazer drove there. The XJ came on a trailer and was having overheating/spewing coolant out of the radiator cap issues..
The fact that those drove there scares me... Whenever I see hacked together trucks on the street I stay at minimum one lane and several car lengths away

Yes, I believe, as long as you grab the wire harness with it from the donor rig. It was my understanding that once you grab the OHC, harness, and temp sensor that it's just plug and play back into your factory harness. Now, that's what I've heard for 96 below, so someone jump in if it's not the same for the newer models.

Btw. My XJ is an SE, so it didn't come with the OHC originally.

The console works in any jeep. You can even use a dodge caravan console. Depending on the year you may have to switch connectors but its very easy. There is a great write up floating around some where.

When I installed the ohc on my 96 country I had to get a temp sensor, mounts, cut the head liner, and get that wiring harness that runs down the a pillar. I got it from a 94 so the connection for the temp sensor was different so I had to splice that

SNOW!!!!! Yes. This is as far as I could get onto this frozen pile of snow.. Darn open diffs and small tires


Water got into my 10" & 20" LED bars so I decided to rebuild them and go crazy with the RTV.. 10" is done, still working on the 20". Probably going to do the fiddy at some point.



Boredom + open diff = rolling one wheel peels...
Did a little drifting in the snow. This parking lot was perfect except for the fact that it is right across the street from a police station (hence why I didn't do more)...
I also test drove a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk... Now I have some ideas for my Cherokee.. Haha. AND I NEED TO GET MY HANDS ON THAT STEERING WHEEL!!! heated steering wheel... mmmmmm toasty..
