X2, I think I spent so much time at work getting the play by play that the forum is now blocked by our administrator at least on this base.

I guess I will just have to start leaving earlier to get caught up.

Yeah, it would have been great of people were closer, and could have come by to help or just hang out. ...and though I will be overjoyed once she is running again, it will be sad to see the end of this thread.
I mean, I still have a lot to do to get it back to what it was, but I don't think anybody really cares about that kinda stuff.

Ive still gotta do
some type of seat covering
fender replacement
rails or steps
turn signal repair
front bumper
repair airbox
radio?

I'll post updates here from now on, in case some of the addicts can't let go.

Haha so true, they have gotta know that a good portion of them are going to be used and abused.

It was great, at my dealer I took it in and they were like "Looks like youve done a lot of work to it but it's so clean, you dont wheel it do you?"

Then I told them to look underneath. All they saw was scraped, dirt coated everything, and skid plates bashed all to hell. Yup, that shut 'em up.


I dread the day something big goes wrong though, my dealership isnt nice about mods when stuff goes wrong

And as for your thread, knowing me I'd probably follow it if you just posted that you waxed your jeep, as soon as I see the title of your thread at the top of the list, its like a natural instinct to click it now.

I think I'll be ok.
They've done warranty work when it looked like this.



that's when my alternator, fan motor, etc went out.


And "waxed it", Tay?
That's some funny stuff right there.
I may do it just for you.

i bet it feels lonely in the left side of your garage right now with tonka in surgery, but on a brighter note, u now have room to work on fixin ur cool front bumper! i wonder how hard that would be to fab a set of fogs into the rear bumper.........

after seeing ur AEV hood it has convinced me that i need one as well.

Rear fogs wouldn't be hard.
And my new empty space is now occupied by my seat revival project.
The bumper is something I'm not sure about yet.
As for the hood, check in here with Screamin Lizard.
They're not to far, and had it in stock.
I went up there, installed it in their parking lot. They even disposed of my old one..though you'd probably keep yours, as it is undamaged.
