paid $4.37/gal for 14.6 gal = $63.80. (by the way, i went to the cheapest gas station, everyone else is $4.47-$4.5x for regular unleaded! here in Humboldt county NOR-CAL, we have the highest prices in the state w/ the highest prices in the nation.
drove her back home & gave her an oil change. castrol gtx high-mileage 10w-30 & fram filter. she took about 6 qts (actually 5 1/2 qts & i'm gonna add some lucas oil treatment tomorrow.) also greased any zerk fittings i could find. with some fresh blood in her, i ran around town trying to take care of other xj-related stuff, & didn't accomplish anything 'cuz this small town likes to roll up sidewalks early, especially sundays.

Beat part of the day My GF said the GC was the most comfortable car out of all the cars there.

Could you hook me up with some pics of the brackets I've been trying to decide if I want to mount them on what's already their or do some cutting and dropping the floor a little if at all possible. How's the head clearance?

i know this might not mean much to you but is your red Jeep a 88?
If so by the looks of the pinstriping on it and the color combo it looks like you have a special edition one year option of the Olympic package... just figure I would let you know...
