I'm thinking about it. Tested it just a few minutes ago and the battery is at 14 volts now unlike earlier. And the gauge is sitting between 13 and 14 volts. Gonna see how long it will last me. I have a lifetime warranty.

ZJ tie rod upgrade went on. Driveway aligned. Definitely had a bad end on the stock one but it wasnt the rattle/clunking over small bumps I was thinking it was. Got to get it off the ground and investigate further. Seems to be coming from the shock area but all is tight and I have BPEs.
ZJ bar makes a nice difference however.

I love having my ZJ tie rod. I'm pretty sure my stock one would have bent already. I put mine on the day I lifted my Jeep and put 33s on it.
it's not that hard erin. lol.
but to the dude with the girl, good luck man! I'm gonna have to convert the girl I'm talking to now from trucks to Jeeps. haha.
and speaking of that, my first step is complete. Got it fixed and running again. Wasn't charging and I was fearing it was a wire problem. thankfully it was just a faulty alternator from autozone. got it replaced and it's been good so far.
starting work again next week, and it's time to save for new rims and tires. and a set of SRBs. going to get a second job as a busboy which will pay for my Jeep hobby while my cashier job will pay for all my gas and other usual expenses. living at home has it's perks.

Passenger side headlight low beam crapped out tonight. Should I replace with another set of sliver stars or upgrade? Already have the harness upgrade. I'm pretty happy with the sliver stars.

Today? I drove the hell out of it like I woulda my Wife's 300+HP car across town the the ER,cause the school called n said my daughter went into anypolactic shock over a mild food allergy in Culinary Arts class (she's very allergic to onions,didn't know the rice another student cooked had any in it). That's 3 times in the month or so I've owned it that it's gotten me or me and a sick child to the ER in a hurry (once in 6" of/still pouring snow) without complaint...Jeep just moved from "vehicle I really like" into "family member".
She's fine now,BTW (or I wouldn't be home telling the mini-story,LOL,I'd be at the horsepital still). A sports car it will never be (I can drive the Wife's car when I feel need to hit the track),but a family member it'll always be,till rust-away/accident do us part
