He ripped me off hardcore. Bought it sight unseen while I was stationed in Germany after he told me it was race-ready, and I've had to replace the engine, trans, shocks, struts, tires, and more. I didn't find all the hidden wiring til I came home, drove it 800 miles to my new duty station, and tried to troubleshoot a short that was blowing a fuse.

ok cool. i got a good friend who's been in Germany for a few months now on a 3 year leave. before he left, we put toyota axles under his sammi on 36's. he never got to drive it before he left so it's gonna sit in the yard till he gets back.

Nice job, I was thinking about doing this down the road while I was fixin my speaker wire last week.[/QUOTE]
Thanks...left my speaker wires out of the harness. Looking for an additional sound bar to place behind the front seats. Will run those up the pillars to the headliner and connect there. Anyone have a soundbar they are willing to part with?
Been searching the local JY and haven't found one yet...

Get to work and suspected something happened so I pulled my Jeep on the ramps and found the one the bands holding the gas tank in place broke. Thank God for bungie cords.

dang straight! i've been looking a reason to move mine to the cargo area. i've got cut fenders, cut and folded rear quarters, no bumper or reese hitch and all i can see when i look down there is the big 'ole gas tank. such an eye sore.

I corrected the LCA'S that the previous owner had installed upside down, backwards, and didn't bother adjusted to compensate for the lift. God, how I love cleaning up other people's dirty work. Last weekend was a fun time of tracing wiring, correcting faulty wiring jobs, ripping out wires that went to absolutely nothing and more. Hopefully everyone else is having better times than I lol. Next week is oil pan, gasket, and rear main crank seal
right through the pinch seam on the back, no fold there, just a cut, and a **** poor job on the front where he tried to hammer the metal under to round it out. and don't get me started on the wiring....
taking 3m leather repair kit to my WJ seats swap-ins. Hope the product turns out decent. Also pulled seat cover and wrapped foam in towel and stuck with 3m spray on glue to restore where the side bolster was sagging.

Ordered 62mm throttle body bore for my junkyard pick, I'll ship it out tomorrow. Ordered a ZJ shifter, they are bigger. I know its not a huge difference, but.. why not?
