Gave my Jeep a lecture on littering....Going down the highway at 75 and BLOOP! The "Cherokee" fender decal falls off and goes bouncing down the embankment. But, there's a silver lining....It was picked up by a buddy with a Jeep as well. I engraved my name and CB channel onto it just out of boredom. He knew who's it was....Now I gotta find some good double sided tape or adhesive!

I just slathered the back with rtv black, stuck it on and taped it with masking tape while it cured.

Today I tied the exhaust back up. Guess the steel wire rusted away again. This time I used a stainless 4" hose clamp.

When I was done I apparently gained a few ponies. The leak in the exhaust sounds like **** but it feels like the Jerp breathes a lot easier now... must've flexed a pile of rust away, diverting gas from a clogged somethingerother

Ahh I think I see why people criticize that TB so much now. The single-shear heim setup looks like it wouldn't last very long.

Bailed it out of the shop yesterday and drove it to work today. Nice to be behind the wheel of it again. My little car isn't as much fun to drive on the ice when you have to hold back, but the Cherokee just eats it up!
