Gotta love young parts store employees ... No offense to anyone
Some of them are completely unqualified. I bought a new battery but obviously wasn't going to let them touch my jeep, so I just asked for the channel locks off their tool cart, and the guy hands me vice grips and tells me that I'm wrong when I tell him those arent channel locks.

I asked a coworker to hand me a 1/2" deep well socket, he handed me a 19mm ratcheting wrench...

You know you drive an xj when...

When someone asks you about your jeep, you answer, and they look at you like your speaking a foreign language because they dont understand what
