Default Floor Liners

Finally got some floor liners. Serious Offroad had the best deal and I'm impressed with them. Now what should I do with the OEM floor mats?

Default MOLLE Visor

Been thinking of new way to have MOLLE gear in my Jeep. So I came up with a MOLLE visor, then I found out that I wasn't the first to think of this. http://zulunylongear.com/visor.html

Well my idea is similar but different. Mine is 10"x6" compared to 12"x6". Mine is made of fabric from Joann compared to Milspec nylon. Mine has a different pocket design on the back side. I came up with my design and my wife brought it to life on the sewing machine.

Finally got my new muffler put on. On thanksgiving I went wheeling and got stuck in a rut. Broke my stock muffler off and been driving around since then without a muffler. So I bought an offroad muffler off ebay and found a local shop to weld it on. It's not loud, just a deep tone.

A "brand new to me" roof rack basket thingy! Its from a 2004 Tahoe. Just got it off Craigslist for a good deal. Not sure if I'm gonna keep it on the back of the roof or move it forward. Any opinions?

Decided it was time for a "new" look for my dash area. Took out my CB wires from the cigarette lighter since I'll be doing a better set up. Took out the factory clock, never liked it. Now I got an open spot there. Most importantly, I swapped in a Wagoneer wood grain dash bezel.

Had an epiphany moment on the ZXJ group. Custom license plate. However NYS limits only 6 characters. So how's ZXJNY1 or ZAVNY1 sound?? I'm leaning toward ZAVNY1.

I got my application approved for the ZXJ Zombie Response Jeep Club. My number is ZXJ-NY002. I think when I get new license plates it will be ZXJ-NY2 (Can only use 6 characters on a custom NY plate).

Number has been changed to ZXJ-NY02. Still thinking about the same license plate as mentioned before.

My front right caliber has seized on me. So I will be doing a front brake overhaul ASAP. Which sucks to have my jeep out of service. Especially since I replaced the rotors and pads within weeks of buying it.

On the positive side of today I picked up a parts comanche. It's an 88 MJ Pioneer, I6 4.0l, 5 speed, 2wd, long box. A buddy found it and we went halfsies on it. Doubt any parts will go into this but will help idleservice with his.

So parts are coming in slow from NAPA so I just redid my front brakes. New calipers, rotors, and pads. Still waiting on pcv/ccv parts.

Now this has just been a bad day for me. Let my wife take the Cherokee to school and after lunch decided to trade cars back. Well someone at her school decided it was okay to hit and run with no note. Tail light is totally smashed up and bumper cap got hit too. Hopefully the guy gets caught on camera cause I don't wanna pay for the new parts.

Wagoneer tail lights. Decided to just hit the junkyard for these since they were cheaper than online. I like the all red Wagoneer light compared to the normal Cherokee ones.
