That's why I park in 4wd, then all 4 are locked.

I go with the big f*cking rock behind the wheel inside the level garage. I need to invest in some good blocks. My Dad's cheesy 2ton jack set is worthless too, i have to use a block on the jack just to get it to reach the Axle xD

Left it sitting over what WAS an entire tank of gas before that wheeling trip sunday and took the OTHER XJ.

It was so hard cuz it was looking at me like "why you taking THAT XJ? Dont you like the way i look in my new mud? What, does it make my *** look fat? You don't love me anymore." lol

Yeah i have a sony in it. Still just rockin door speakers though. aftermarket, but they came with it. almost 6 yrs ago. for $500! bought that Jeep to last one winter. This will be winter number 5 or 6. Couple hoses, some tires and a starter are all shes needed so far. Thats the Jeep that convinced me to get one thats NOT about to turn back into earth and see what all the hype is about wheelin...soon as my front tires hit sand i was hooked!

Stupid vacuum ball thingy. Even though i checked it 5 TIMES when i had the bumper off, it came loose. Go figure i only made a real attempt to check this AFTER pulling the dash apart. Also, **** YOU Bestbuy!! Took me 5 minutes to stuff that mess back in the dash!
