I just moved back to Manhattan from Queens. Parking is a part time job everywhere here. I work nights, so I park on the street since I can move for street cleaning and I don't drive daily. I'm way uptown where parking has been very easy so far. My fender was keyed and my antenna was stolen last week, but that's to be expected, right? I use AAA to park downtown when needed. You have to print out the coupon, but it's almost half off.
jk i know how crowde the cdity can be

Had a brake line burst today, near the rear brake hose. Ended up replacing the brake line from the master cylinder to the rear brake, then the brake hose where it connects to the rear axle, THEN ended up snapping off the bleeding valve on the wheel cylinder. Gave up, went to the auto parts store, and got wheel cylinders, new brake lines, new shoes, hardware, and even drums. In for a penny, in for a pound, huh? I'll finish it up tomorrow - I wasn't planning on this being an all day (and then some!) project. Oh well - old girl is worth it...

Helped my dad put a 1 inch body lift in his wrongler today, we where going to do my universals but it seems finding a 36mm socket is a lil hard. Checked my plugs aswell, 6 months old, burnt to crap, serves me right for using Boosh.
No, I don't lick fish.

Put the factory flex to the test... completely stock suspension (aside from the negative arch in my leafs) sway bars still on and connected... not bad I'd say.

Took it out wheeling @ jeepskool and did a mild number on her. Broke shock mount off rear axle and split my rear driveshaft in half
On the plus side everyone there was super helpful and got my shaft tacked together good enough to drive her home. Thanks guys!

started to trim the fenders, the PO had a rough time so I'm trying to fix that.

Tis is as far as I got. Ran out of cutting disks. I have the write on my day over at my blog.
