Painted my diff covers

 

Dude I wanna do that. Looks so good.

 

What kind of gear lube ya use like a synthetic 80 90w?

 

Nice keep clean oil in her always! Mine hit 152 today I drop the oil every 2k just so I know its clean! Lol

 

Yea I need to get into that habbit.. Lol, I used to with my lexus and that was like twice as expensive... After my school tour (GTC for those of you in GA) on tues. Im changing the oil, and checking and topping off the rest of the fluids as well... Probably get some new wipers as well and other random stuff.. Lol.. on another note: I really think this is the best picture i've takin of my jeep thus far... I freakin like it...

 

a well deserved complete tune up:

-new Spectre intake filter
-Autolite spark plugs (only ones autozone had enough for my XJ)
-spark plug wires
-stabilizer shock
-tie rod end
-fuel filter
-replaced differential gasket and flushed out the oil
-battery tray and clamps (PO had a shoe under the batter to keep it from moving lol)
-oil change... Pensoil 10-30

I now feel alot safer driving the XJ knowing what's in it lol

 

Technically yesterday but I put on my new nates bumper

 

today i did something im not to happy about but it was probably the better choice. I left my rig with my mechanic to do the rotors pads and hub. I wanted to handle it sunday but i dont know how well a 10 yr old hub would come off without someone to help so i figured they can do it for me. Longest 8 hours ever while im at work ahhhhhh. GOOD news though my repair parts are en route to my house so sunday i can repair my front end and map sensor. Pics will come. Hopefully tonight i can "bed in" my new pads and rotors with this rain

 

Well, I was going to finish my lift kit today and get it aligned and put new tires on and all that and then take it out tomorrow. Looks like instead of that, I'll be doing school stuff ALL DAY. I have a research presentation at 2 and an experiment after that. DANGIT. I hope I can get done before it gets too late tomorrow and firestone will still be open. All I have left it to grind off a leaf spring bolt and put the new springs on.

 

Hook up to our club ramp and drove it into work. Will be going to a weekend function with the ramp. Its the first time i drove the xj after getting my grand back. But it fired up first hit like always.

 

Blue led lights on shifters, bypassed my headunit, added a switch then enjoyed some fresh prince of bel air and lastly I fabbed up a whip mount using my oem spare tire mount. I hammered it out and drilled some holes then bedlined it and mounted above the right tailight, looks pretty good now

 

Both batteries I have are dead. Im going to guess its coz I had to recharge them too much... Stupid altinator dying on me...

So Im taking in 1 walmart and get some trade in deal. And Im going to take my BIG battery to advanced and see if its possible it can be saved. I REALLY like my big battery. But 100+ for a new one? Yea thats not gonna happen

 

Worked 11/7, came home tore into my lift kit. Front is done, rear leafs are built and bolted in loose. The rear upper shock bolts were rusted and snapped so now I have to decide how to handle that. Its now 5 pm .....I'm really to tired to care at this point.....any suggestions for the morning?

 

Happens to most XJ's I just drilled mine out. Then lifted carpet in the rear. Drilled out holes and used new hardware. Plugged the holes with rubber.

 

Mine are broke too! Im going to cut the floor and put bolts down through. It was fun laying on my back under the jeep drilling!
