Well I have a really bad hole in the exhaust now. So I guess its time to contact kolak for an exhaust. Gonna have to wait for a paycheck. Also my instrument panel decided that it doesnt want to work. The key with the line through it lights up and my guages all stop working at random and then decide to work. Its kind of annoying.

Well I got a cheapo muffler put on until I get enough money for a full exhaust. Just couldnt risk a ticket. It was soo loud.

you gonna keep replace with stock exhaust? or buy aftermarket?

Kolak priced me out a magnaflow hiflow cat and flowmaster 50s series so ill probably go that route.

Doesn't sound very "budget"-esque

sounds like a plan man, i actually almost bought a 04 WJ with 103,000 before i bought this 99' classic. i went and looked at it and it was decently clean except for previous owners spraying walmart spray paint on the plastic trim.. haha

Yeah its not very budget-esque but my budget has recently increased with this new job I started.

My jeep has the spraypaint on the plastics, lol. But I have an idea im pretty sure im going to pull the trigger on. It involves removing all the cladding.

Ok, a little late on the update. Just been busy with the new job. So I went to my buddy's property over memorial day. He has a bit of property in Kimbolton Ohio. It started off as a nice drive down dirt roads until I started finding some more hidden paths.

She looks so pretty before the mud.

A little butterfly on my rim.



Most roads looked like these

Found a bunch of random mattresses

And all was good until I hit a swamp. It was hidden so well I was stuck before I knew what happened.


Hard to tell but I was sitting on my frame. All 4 tires spinning freely. Had to walk about 8 miles back to camp to have this bad boy pull me out.

Had a 454in it

Well it was dark when we got back so no pics of actually getting her out... But she was a biiiitchhhh getting out. And as we pulled she slid into a tree. Well when she hit the tree he went over a log and thought that's why he stopped... Well he backed up and pulled her into the tree again. Got her back and the next day snapped a few photos. The damage isn't gonna be fixable I dont
think. In the end I learned my lesson and can't be mad. It was a fun day and well, as all you guys know. **** happens haha.

Battery cables are good but now my jeep wont stay started for more then 2 seconds. I read up on it and it says that that's supposed to happen if in fact I didn't have the right chipped keys, but i do. So I am at a loss, I will check the wires in the doors tomorrow I tried takin the boot off the wires but didn't really have time to fiddle with it today. Is there a trick to get that boot off? It didn't seem to want to just come off.

Well short in my pci bus causing all kinds of problems like the skis to malfunction. So she sits at a shop waiting to be fixed. Quoted at about 500 dollars. Oh joy...

Well my WJ is done for. Has a short in the pci bus. Took it somewhere and they blew my motor or something. They gave it back Friday after having it for about 4 weeks, and all the electrical issues were still there. And she was running like **** and the engine knocking and black smoke pouring out of the rear. Shifting in and out of gears while I tried to stay a steady speed. So I'm looking into legal action because it's obviously their fault and they are refusing to fix her. Unless I give them another 1700 bucks on top of the 600 they took to fix the electrical issues. Even those aren't fixed... But I do have a little good news... I picked this up yesterday. It's an 07 Sahara 6 speed with 98xxx miles.
