Got it waaaaayy stuck in the snow. No pics dammit, I'll try to get some of the ruts tho.

 

went to fleetfarm with my gf and her mom and got it a clock/compass/thermometer for the dash, snow plow markers for the bumper (dont need em but gonna put em on so i have an excuse to use my new tools!! haha) and got a clamp for puttin my side pipe exhaust on

 

installed 4 jbl speakers and a sony deck

 

Pulled a Cavalier out of a snowy ditch and did some ice drifting

 

Not a damn thing.

But....
I'm gonna do a thermostat and the belt on the 98 and a water pump, thermostat, belt, and other odds & ends to them both in the morning. (The more the merrier, help that is...)...
Rain or shine I'll be out there...

 

Cleaned, Cleaned, oh yeah and Cleaned it.

 

Held my baby girl tight as we both peered out the window and gazed upon Daddy's XJ, and it brought a tear to my eye as my lil girl said her third word, "JEEP". HEHE

(First word, Daddy, Second, Mommy0

 

I did the thermostat and new belt on the 98...

 

I cleaned and painted the new front Dana 30 high pinion and rear Dana 44 diffs i got to replace the bad ones.

but having problems with the new yoke on the 44 wont go on

 

It's a few days late, but I just got home from Georgia for the holidays. On turesday I gave her a good once over before the 540mi (one way) trip. Oil change, tranny fluid change, seafoamed it, washed her and detailed her, cleaned the interior 110%, and added some Sylvania Xtravision headlights. Glad to say that the trip went great without so much as one issue from the Jeep. Awesome!

 

Installed a Clarion deck with a front USB port from Crutchfield. Installation was a breeze and soldered all the connections. It sounds amazingly good through the stock speakers. I'm guessing the original owner (70+ year old doctor) never used the stereo, as the radio reception was horrible and the cassette door showed no signd of wear. Next is a replacement of the antenna since it's probably corroded at the base.
