2 helps in 1! lol It took me forever to figure out the correct P/N. Tons of them out there without cruise, and not many places confirmed that this was the correct P/N.

Default Oil Leaks!

Over the past couple of days I replaced my Oil Filter Adapter gaskets as well as the valve cover gasket. I'm hoping that this solves my leaking issue. Now time to start looking at transmission leaks! Oh joy....

I also grabbed some parts from the JY
fan shroud
3/6 injectors for the swap (only could find 3 good ones )
and grabbed some relays and fuses for that just in case moment.

Picked my son up from my moms, pulled the rig into the garage and saw my heat soak insulating wrap kit and new injectors glaring at me. It's been a couple weeks since a wrenched in the garage. Really hope to get something going this week end.

Got my 3 link in, axle bolted loosely back under the jeep and took the jack stands out from underneath the frame rails for the first time since december.

Still have a lot of little items to wrap up but it should be driving this weekend.

Pulled the studded tires off and put the summer tires back on. While I was at it, I took out the front Sensa-Trac shocks and put the Ranchos back in. Around back I removed the sway bar plates and installed a pair of new U bolts.

Also replaced the HB2 headlights with GE Nighthawk sealed beams.

Thanks I appreciate it.

I definitely will along with some better pics. I have a race on Saturday but I plan on getting it mostly buttoned up on Sunday.

Replaced the rear brake hose which had started to leak at the axle end. The new Wagner-branded part is 'Hecho en China' so we'll see how that goes...
