i started by pulling the center console just wanting to clean it up, then i realized that i needed to fix the mount... then i saw a towel under the vinyl so i pulled the front seats and found a) the reason why the jeep smells kinda strange- there was a soaked/moldy towel on either side. and b)there is some rust in my floorboard (luckily its all surface rust!!!) 
so now im going to clean it all up, get rid of that rust, and repaint it. I just gotta figure out what paint im going to use, im not sure if i want to use just a regular paint or something more heavy duty.

Yup. I did a budget boost with the spacers and shackles first, and I also basically rebuilt the whole rear end. It got rear ended on one of the first wheeling trips I went on. And creamed the rails so I just ended up cutting it all out, bent new rails, and made new shackle boxes. So I never had to touch the front bushing on the leafs. Just added a leaf and longer shackles. Works for me I'm at 3.5-4 out back and was at 2-2.5 in the front so I finally bought some control arms, springs an shocks, so finishing that up now

I popped my front plugs and left them open. Fills up quick in river crossings, but it's all gone as soon as I'm out. Never even patched my floors cause now they don't stay wet (no carpet).
