not today, but i changed my oil and rotated tires, stripped a wheel stud because i was in a hurry, took it to the dealership because they were the only place that could get it done that evening and i had to go to work. My bro in law picked it up for me. Cost $80!!!

When I drove it something sounded extemely wrong like grinding, squeaking, and cracking, like something was loose!!! The sound change every bump i hit. Plus My Parking brake wasn't working for ****! I couldn't figure out what was wrong. All they did was replace a stud.

So I took I back the next day. I guess when they replaced my wheel stud the spring from my parking brake came off got stuck and was scraping my disc. hence the popping and squeaking... fixed it for free but i didn't get my money refunded, damn stealership

i asked the PO i got them from and he had no idea and i was pretty sure they were TnTs so i PMed them asking if there was a way i would know for sure and if it would be possible to order just a passengers side. I havent heard back from them but im not in a hurry.


I also started painting the passengers side above the new rocker and around the JEEP and Sahara badge. Ill get pics in a bit

Today i ripped off the exhaust manifold and smashed it with a spedge hammer. It was stamped "china" and the 3rd time it cracked. I dont have a new one and have no motivation insight to replace it. It can just sit there.

I changed my oil, filter, and put a new air filter in. The Heep is happy again. Strange how it always seems to run better with clean oil..AH
