Default finally got her back

Finally got Bessie back into the safety of my driveway!! After an agonizing two and a half days, our insurance finally decided to pay for a tow to my house. The pics are the drive home and the parking. Im glad I know she's relatively safe now. Haha

After a day of wheeling, my alternator went bad in a taco bell parking lot. Lol

I am my own mechanic, so I don't ever miss my Jeep. Sometimes I wish I could spend a little less time working on it.

The PO was a little rough on it. Therefore, I have to fix all the stuff he ****ed up. He didn't fix things when e screwed them up so I have to, but I would still say it was $800 well spent. It came with a lift kit and 31's and it ran ( not too well).

x2, I just want to wheel not spend every weekend tinkering with it. After I had an alt die on me and drove home on battery power, I carry a spare alt in the back for road side fixes.
