I bought my jeep new coolant hoses, a double shear track bar and hack and tap sye from iron rock off road and new steering box spacer thing from jcr offroad. I hope she enjoys it. Oo and also found out my old jeep got impounded because the kid I sold it to never transferred it out of my name and had fictitious tags on it. (fill in explicatives of choice here)

Finished up (nearly) the front suspension upgrade. Rough Country Serious II 3". I'm sure it's not the greatest, but it's good for the budget. The "nearly" part was RC goofed and sent me SAE bolts with metric nuts for the stabalizer bar drop bracket.

Rear will have to wait for the next run of nice weather (I don't have a garage or a driveway, just a parking spot).

Yesterday was the real blow...I was going to swap the spark plugs and grabbed the first...oil, the second...oil. They were brand new plugs too. So someone obviously just scammed me on a sale. Shoulda known something was up when I got a Florida title from a Maryland resident.

But today was a good day, getting something done.

Doesnt even show how bad it is.







How long does it take for leafs to settle?

I should have an extra inch in the back, but it looks like a lot more.
