"NewKindOfClown "I won't have problems with Fram when I use it because I never had problems with Fram when I didn't use it. Your warnings are childish."

I don't have cancer because I never had cancer before. Doctors are a waste of money.

That's what you're doing to your Jeep.

Back on topic:

Got the last of the front hitch bolted in, that was a fun battle.
Re-routed the aux light wiring so my left foot stops ripping it off the sidewall.

How old was it? As much as I love to bash, that will happen to ANY paper filter if you let it soak in oil for a year or so.

Sand paper and flat black rust ilium rattle can would clean that up nicely.

On that fram thing, one of my College instructors said he had a Wix filter disintegrate inside one of his cars once. He didn't show any pictures, but he DID say Wix gave him a fat check for the damages.

Still rather take Wix over Fram. But for now I'm using Motorcraft. Cus it's free for me :P

Anyways to get us back on topic, took Raider out to check on an old flood sight. Got hit by a big storm last September, this bridge was about 4 feet underwater. Same storm that almost totaled my Mom's WK with hail damage.
And sorry, my cell phone has always had the most retarded autofocus.
