The shop seems like a pretty cool place. John is the main driveline guy
Took measurments of the DS thurs. And pik up on Friday. Went with the upgraded ujoints.
So far today, I welded my muffler on again, it needs to be replaced soon though, its been beat to death wheeling. Replaced bolts that came out of my A/C compressor somehow, sold the ZJ springs I had for it to a buddy and ordered some RE coil spacers from Serious Offroad instead, and I'm about to go bolt the D30 in the front of the MJ sitting in my driveway (originally 2wd).

What I did today, went to walmart, got some oil and windshield wipers. Saw some rotella t5 10-30 but only had 4 qts so I went with the usual, Mobil 1. I did also try and catch a stray dog with a thick leather collar from getting run over on Arthur kill rd by me. Bunch of people got it to stay put under a car, I hope the owners find it. That was my day

Pulled the rear drums, removed the adjusters, freed up and lubed again, bit of brushing the drums, and assembled, adjusted the shoes outward, now a nice high firm pedal again. That's the way they should be, high and firm. If your pedal travel is getting long, you may just require an adjustment, often good pad remains and it;s the auto adjusters freezing up. It's a tough environment inside those drums and a little elbow grease will get the full life from your brakes, nice having that crisp response again.

Put on 97+ mirrors yesterday, and I cleaned out the bed today. Hadn't been done in about 6 months, so I took my time and enjoyed this newfound nice weather. Unfortunately, I found several more places where my Line-X is peeling up or missing. Gonna have to drive down there sometime soon and talk to them about getting it resprayed.
