Actually picked it up from this group buy: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=990154
His was a little bit cheaper. I have been watching the prices on these things for the last month and they have went from being around $330-$350+, to running $400+ . I HAD to jump on this deal, thank the lord the wife let me!

put a new coil in, he starts like a top now. I also installed a tranny temp gauge from B and M. I'll be doing a full write up on it after a few days of driving and wheeling. At the same I picked up a cooler from them. I'll put that in after some good results with the gauge for comparison.
Removed my "fender studs" (fills in holes from flare brackets) and picked up some plastic plugs for holding fender well plastic in place. It looks so much better. Not really ready to start cutting sheet metal, so this looks nice and clean for now. Then I proceeded to cake er' in mud down some country roads. GOD I love this thing!

It all starts out, fight with one guy about parts... Then go argue with another about my ability to piece it back together myself (been there, done that) then finally tell them all off and get help from another person. Get a call yesterday, time to pick up my pride and joy... Went over and put the front end back on it, then put the fan clutch and radiator back in and fill it up. Started right up and drove away as if nothing ever happened to it! I LOVE MY JEEP!!!! Made it home and finished mounting the bumper, grille, etc back, then drove around the field... So much fun to have my toy back! I have almost converted another friend to our world... That will happen soon. Finally sit back and say 'this is a good day'
Started installing my BB 2" kit....did the front today, gonna do the rear tomorrow and put a new Exh manifold and Cold air intake on tomorrow, then go get my new 31's mounted up...
within the last few weeks i've changed the plugs, brake pads and put a new glasspack on it. also i added a 2" spacer/AAL lift which i finished up about 1am last night. today i got an alignment and removed the mudflaps, and made sure my wheels were nice and clean.

I installed new wheel joints, and pass side hub, got tires rotated and balanced to. No more popping from the front end anymore! and no signs of death wobble anymore, but still need further testing for that.
