Got a set of 235/75 Michelin LTX M/S2's installed w/lifetime rotation & balance for under $600. Nice street tires! Now my speedo's accurate at last!

Gave the Jeep a wash and put a nice glossy finish on the new tires.

Took my old battery to return it to a different shop in same chain. Turns out it's still good! The other shop lied to make a sale. I returned it & got some Mobile 1 synthetic oil & filter and some tools with some of the refund.

Durango 98 or 99 direct bolt in. I'm doing it now. However, id recommend a better inner plate. I got mine from c-Rok. Yes, your pitman arm will work.

Ill be hitting up the junkyard for one of those ASAP. And by inner plate u mean a plate to go between the steering box and frame?

FINALLY had a good outcome from going to the local salvage yard... Replaced my headlight housing



(though it was black, and my Jeep's white), so......





And of course some hot pink duct tape to hold the busted mirror on


What do you guys think of the black?
