Had to change the oil pressure sensor...hopefully tommorow i wont leak more oil than BP.

Also got a seatbelt ticket... i pulled outta the hospital im working at and was in the process of buckling and there were 3 cops posted up. BUSTED! Only 15 bux and no points. Oh well.

Got her some new shoes!

Went from 15's (the ugliest Jeep wheels EVER made) and 30x9.5 tires (worn-out General Grabber AT2's) to 16" MOAB wheels and the brand new BFG Rugged Terrain T/A's (255/70/16). BFG just released those tires last week, and I haven't seen anyone with them yet.

Got it running again. I was so happy. New water pump from NAPA, the reman from checker was a POS, the mating surface was not lapped and the hose fitting was rough, no wonder it was leaking everywhere. I stripped out the threads for the bottom bolt though, fingers crossed it doesn't leak since I just lost my job and can't afford any more parts.

jy run proved to be beneficial:
replaced my broken/cracked side marker w/ good one:

picked up a coolant overflow bottle from a 93 subaru impreza to finish off my cooling system "modification/upgrade":


here's a mock setup (still need to fab the bracket using part of the joist hanger in pic above):

Might be ok, but Xj sport will tell you that projectors are the best way to go HID because they have a solid cut off line and are very amiable. I agree. Norcalmr2 has the best. $200 but it's well worth it.
Sorry Xj sport.
