Slapped some stickers on now that winter is technically over

From WF25. Hopefully this year I’ll have my jk30/44 built and swapped in before WF26 lol 😅

I’ve been driving it to work for a couple weeks now. Brakes still aren’t right but good enough to drive it. My other issue I have going on is my temperature gauge doesn’t read at all. It cycles when starting the Jeep and I’ve replaced both temp sensors on it and no change. Next when I have time...

Yes I bled it. I’ve bled the whole system a few times. I’ll be at WF with the xj.

I’m still having issues with my brakes. Pedal is soft and goes about 3/4 way to the floor before stopping when the engine is running. Only guess is still air somehow stuck in the system somewhere. It has brand new hard and soft lines, new rear wheel cylinder sand brake parts , new pads and...

I’ve repaired the d30 I’m swapping in. Had rotted passenger coil bucket and bend passenger control arm bracket. Got those patched and bent back then welded Barnes control arm skids on the LCA mounts. Replaced both uca bushings and made my own passenger uca mount stiffener. Now the axle is ready...

Got a brand new windshield installed with the rubber gasket. I made a adapter harness for 94xj dash to 87 mj body/fuel pump/tail harness. I fit an xj ebrake lever into the tunnel then started to assemble the interior. Picked up a silver dash bezel from a friend and installed a new used radio as...
