been on leave since the 19th. So far:

-JCR tail light housings mounted
-JY rear aux lights sanded, primed and bedlined
-Oil pressure sensor replaced
-Shop cut out rusty front mounts for leaf springs and welded in Poly
Performance spring brackets.
-Rear leaves in (rear lift matches front now!)

Go back to work on the 3rd. Gotta finish:

-Mounts for Rear Aux lights
-Replace Fuel Filter
-Cut and fold rear quarters
-finish sanding, priming, bedlining spare front seat brackets in prep
for floorboard repair
-Mount my 102" antenna to my rear bumper
-work on some rust prevention

Just tinkering...

Spring will be the SYE/D44/DC tom woods/gears/locker
 
Installed the IPF H4 conversion. Went from 55 watts to 185 watts. There's a slight difference in the visibility now.



Tieing in the wiring harness to the headlight controls.


Mounting the relays


Relays out of the way


H4's complete








I found out that it's illegal to change your own oil or transmission fluid here. I also found out it's illegal to ship transmission fluid through USPS, but it's legal (and I kid you not) live chickens.

Still no 4x4 until I can get transmission fluid. Ordered some from Amazon last week, so maybe I'll have 4x4 by February.

Do they not sell transmission fluid anywhere? I just can't fathom why they make it so difficult to do such simple things. I could NOT live there.

I've been to maybe 8 stores looking for transmission fluid. First off, automatics are extremely rare here. Second, it's illegal to change your own fluid.

I even stopped at the Jeep dealership and they don't have ATF III in stock. They called their supplier and couldn't get it delivered.
 
I just bought a 360 for my 88 MJ :D

Now just need an NV4500, an NP231, axles (probably 30/8.25 for now, maybe 44/14b in the future if I have issues with the stock axles), and a suitable 97+ donor for the interior, doors, and fenders/header panel.
