I noticed a nasty front differential leak, so I ended up swapping out my front pinion seal and servicing the front diff. It's all good now.

Also, last night I noticed a little group of baggy pants punks checking out my truck with lust in their eyes, so today I picked up this...



Viper 5901 Responder LC3 SuperCode SST 2-Way Security and Remote Start System5702V

Responder LC3 – the 3rd generation of Responder, complete with SST One Mile Range, the new Priority icons and text seen on a 20% larger liquid-crystal display, an onboard lithium-ion rechargeable battery with mini-USB recharging – all in the slimmest display remote on the market.

Going to get it installed tomorrow afternoon. I'm also not going to feed my dog for a few days and let him sleep in the truck in case they come back. Got a shovel and a bag of lime all ready to go.

Put on a glasspack and moved the exhaust over an inch or two to stop it from hitting my leaf springs.

My starter went completely out. So I had to replace that. the front seal on my power steering pump blew out replaced that but there is a still problems with the pump so I will have to get a new one. The guy that wired up the electric fans did not know what he was doing so I pick up a dual fan kit and rewired it. next I figure the alternator will go so I will just pick one up. I am also going to change all fluids again. Some one really did not take good care of this XJ. tranny fluid was brown, gear fluid was black and so on and so on. everything is starting to look the right color when I drain it now.. So I am getting somewhere.

Haven't installed yet but picked these up.
They are Beard suspension seats and were used for 6 months in a sand rail and the guy wanted a bench seat for the back and he wanted all of them to match so he took these out. He bought all of them 6 months ago like i said for 250 each on the seats and 80 each on the 4pt harnesses. So a total of $1400 or more including shipping he spent! Stole it all for 420 bucks!!!

Finally after owning my winch for 3 months I got around to mounting it on the Jeep. Its ugly but strong as hell.



Tomorrow I'm going to paint it and mount my 6" lights on the plate. I'll get some better pics tomorrow.

We'll play the guessing game. I'll post a before and after picture and you guys tell me. I did 2 small things today. 1 of them might not be obvious because I was close when I took the after picture.

Looks like you put on the "Cherokee" badge and painted the "4x4" badge white.

I took the air intake temperature sensor off my wrecked TJ and will put it on my XJ after I teach my Dad how to get the error codes from the check engine light.

and looks like he removed the plastic end pieces on the rear bumper. Any reason for that? I was excited when I put my new rear bumper on because both of those were intact.
