What did you do to your Cherokee today?
Took off my end caps/bumper/vaccumm egg/front skid in 45 minutes after work before it got so dark I couldn't see what I was working on...
Putting it all back together WITH the tow hook brackets installed tomorrow after work.

took for its first good long drive... was doing 70 down I-95 happy with her... :} then stoped by my old place that the bank is getting back.. and had to drive in ditch and take pic
Finished Header install!!!
It was actually not as tough as i thought it would be. Would of been easier if i didn't break-off a bolt.
Lesson Learned: More PB Blaster, "New" Header Bolts and Ratcheting Wrenches are COOL!

Seafoamed and it worked great. Smoother idle and better acceleration. Finished my 2" RC lift by putting the coil spacers in and while doing that I snapped both sway bar end links. Got some serious body roll around turns now, but great for offroad flexing.

New front UJoints 
Didn't do them myself because I have 10 thumbs, but its a relief knowing those crusty banging old POS are out of there. Garage said they definitely should not have passed the MOT inspection that was supposedly done a month before we bought it....
and its snowing!
Well worth £199 inc VAT.
