Parked it in the garage to defrost drivers side door. Couldn't unlock or open the door. Come on summer! Don't like crawling in the passenger side and lifting my body over to the drivers side.

Finished swapping my passenger front caliper to find that both the bolts that hold it on are striped. Pulled the entire hub off my spare axle and put it on the axle under my Jeep.

Had to order a new set of bolts from auto-zone and they won't be in till the morning. So I came back home and bleed the entire brake system.

Working on my Jeep suck with a broken foot. Everything takes for ever.

your 97 has a carb? Doubt it...


pulled the radiator, unbolted the bottom support.
Found out someone at Chrysler decided its a good idea to bolt AND weld in the bottom support. Now I have to try to cut the welds with my dremel...

Default exhaust

Got header from ineedparts .com, slight mods to get it to fit.
NAPA down tube.
High Flow cat,
super 44 mufler,
tail pipe
turn down exhaust tip.
All from header back is 2.5" sounds amaizing, and yet not annoying on the highway.

And a big thanks to all the recomended parts from this forum.

I flexed it the most I ever have. I had the front driver side wheel rubbing the front portion of my fender. That's with cut fenders I was really surprised. I would upload more pics but it won let me load my email.
