Not just today, but this weekend. Replaced both front axle universal joints. Remove those stupid "chrome" plastic wheel covers, cleaned and sanded steel rims and repainted. Looks much better now and my front end doesn't make weird squeeks and noises any more. Next project - figure out why the 4wd indicator lights aren't working.

This weekend, painted the grill and headlight bezels white to match the rest of the Jeep, looks a lot better than all black. She looks more like my old XJ now.

Saturday: New front brake calipers since my right front one locked up on me two different times. Replaced the left front upper spring seat(rubber spacer thingy) cuz it was extremely dry rotted and falling apart.

Sunday: Took it to a car wash to pressure wash all the mud off from wheeling a month ago.
