Lol, true.
Wait, it's gotta be like 1:15am where your at right? Wth man, I thought I was bad and it's only 11.
As to our jeep, nothing new, waiting on the next paycheck to get wheel cylinders, then, bleeding again..... I'm going to be a pro at it soon. Maybe this time I'll remember to loosen the lug nuts before I lift it...

haha more like 2:21am! I don't have to be up early for anything tomorrow, so I felt like watching 80s reruns of cops and posting stuff on CF.

Yeah you wanna torque or loosen the lug nuts with the Jeep on the ground hahaha. Hope your Jeep is doing well besides the brakes man

In between rain showers and thunderstorms... I was able to begin bondoing the bottom of my XJ. I sanded down and fiberglassed the traditional rust area. I also have attached new sheet metal in spots where the rocker panel had disappeared. It seems like this method would be cheaper then having a new rocker panel shipped, plus I don't have access to welding supplies.

I began the day washing the mud off of my truck so i could work on finishing off the rust repair. It rained pretty much on and off all day for the loss.

Can't wait to get it done.

Not today, but... Picked up some hardwear to put my old hatch struts under the hood, started the bastard pack this past weekend. Six leaf heellll yeeaah.

Should I keep the old style factory rubber or get poly bushings?

Going to be taking off the rear sway bar and converting to bar pin elim... Don't think I'll need the sway bar with a six leaf pack.

How do you get the rubber bushing out with out a press?

Drilled two holes on my stock bumper for a set of 6' off road lights. I'll probably wire everything up next week on my next day off.
