Nice! I've been wanting to get rid of my POS chrysler column. I love the look of the 2011 jeep steering wheels and I wanna see if I could somehow transplant it in. That would be a dream come true lmao
as for some junkyard finds of my own, I got two headlight projectors (with a nice cutoff line) out of a daewoo for $7 and a factory XJ dash clock out of a '96 country for $3. SCORE!

Today I watched her and thought wish I had 1500 to invest in her right now for tires, a new cat, bumpers, and maybe Hellas and some other goodies. Oh well least she's reliable and strong even stock. Oh and maybe a small 3"lift too

Edit: although i probably will invest in the new cat cause that's something that needs to be in good shape.

changed the diff oil today. Wow does that stuff smell like sh/t! My front diff was making noise so drained and put new in and did the same for the rear.
Used a shampoo bottle squirter to get all the diff fluid out. Autozone surprisingly didn't have sh/t to do this so had to improvise.

Also changed out the transfer case fluid. Working on the steering column as well....
