Changed engine oil and cleaned air filter. Still surching for the "rattle and hum" coming from either diff or side shafts - getting worse by the day.

Flushed the heater core with water and compressed air. Now I have a spectacularly brown driveway but the Jeep has heat.

ordered scratch & dent sale OR-Fab rear bumper from SflXJ and went to JY and managed to get 4 784 neon injectors for '99-'01 cherokee swap and 4 703's that are kind of shot looking and seemed like the idiot ran diesel through the engine so in the garbage with those...

Not much, put some vent visors on. Those things are awesome for a rainy day. Especially when you don't have a/c, and you don't want to get rained on!

finally got back to my project... its been almost two months and thats way to long.

Today I reconnected my fogs with upgraded harness, just to give a little more light output. ordered the upgraded headlight wiring harness.

proceeded to remove all the trip and repaint them black! looks rediculously better then crappy white with faded black trim. now it looks like freshly polished white with awesome almost looking new trim!!

began to convert all the lights to LED, so far taillights are done and dome lights. still waiting on the rest.

also got a quote for some new 33s. hopefully picking them up tomorrow so shes currently sitting on jack stands. Oh media blasted my high lift jack and repainted it black with silver components.
