No this winter has been dry. I replaced my cps this morning and still no start. Found the ground connector on the starter was loose (starter was turning over so I didn't check there first). So after a new starter and some convincing (pumping the gas till it started) it fires right up like a dream. Hopefully that's all it was.

Yeah Jeeps are starting to pop up in my neighborhood too, but mostly those minivans called "Grand Cherokees" and the FWD station wagons.

Looks good, that bumper looks like it could take on a tank.

Picked up some perfect leather ZJ seats at the JY for under $50 total. Also have them pulling me an 8.8 with 4:10 gears and LSD, got that for around $150 including what they charge to pull it.

I washed and waxed the Xj , Which in turn reminded me of why I hate wheeling when the trails are muddy from all of the melting snow. I also discovered my windshield cracked from yesterday or last Saturday . I am leaning towards last Saturday when I slid down a hill backwards when I hit a sheet of ice and bounced off a tree on the passenger side. Cause of a scrape on the a pillar right nexto the crack

Bedlined my door area so it looks good doorless, took off the valve cover and took out the stripped out bolt then replaced the gasket. Then changed the oil. Also bedlined rear hatch
