To-do List

[kastein]

You could try putting another seal in, isn't that like the last thing that goes in before you slam the pitman arm on? Admittedly a steering box is one of the few remaining things I've never rebuilt on an XJ.

 

[MoparManiac]

You have to pull the sector shaft to replace that seal. I'll be replacing it in my Dodge this weekend.

Also, there's a guy local to me selling a PSC box.

yea, i don't have time to wait for a new seal to get here and really don't want to tear the box apart again and chance it failing again.

 

[Olympus Off Road]

Dyno Day on Monday
Limit straps
bolt in driveshafts
devise a mount for my ecu
bleed brakes.
hope everything works nice.

then there is what has turned into the maybe list:

drink Ross's beer and make him bend me a hoop to connect my coilover towers.
battery cutoff switch.
swap out rear tailgate for one with less holes
install sick 70's V8 badges
trim front fenders slightly
add rock lights.

I spend as much time updating this list as I do working on the jeep. But it makes me feel like Im accomplishing stuff.

[squashman702]

-Rear coil spacers
-Change fluid in D35
-Grease everything I didn't yet

i finally got my lightbar aimed correctly after shimming, trimming, etc. what a pain in the dick. topped off my fluids, and bought some threaded rod to make a j-hook for my battery tie down and will toss two tie downs in the trunk tomorrow too after work. also need to grease my front driveshaft and i should be all set.

 

[xcalibur223]
