new shocks and seafoam

Well, today I finally installed my front 4WD Hardware shocks. Rides a little softer than the stock gas-charged ones.
Also, I did the seafoam thing (in the TB). Never smoked. Didn't notice a change. Engine still ticks.

I repaired a crack and a hole in my hardtop just go to an auto parts store and pick up some short strand fiberglass filler and some glazing putty...scuff and then clean the area well with alcohol. Then mix up the needed amount of fiberglass and apply as smooth as possible. Sand it down once it has set for at least 30minutes then apply a second coeat, allow it to set and the sand to shape. once you have finished that apply a very thin coat of glazing putty (if needed) to smooth out the finish. Once that has set prime and paint with krylon fusion satin black...I did that and it turned out great...looked brand new

During the day I put a new oil pressure sending unit in and replaced my emergency brake shoes.


At night I adj. my antirock, but messed up one of the treads on one of the joints so i had to saw like 1/4" off one the the threads to make the nut go on again! Also realized my front axle is off center to the passenger side by like 1/4". But it doesnt cause any problems. Should i fix it?

It kinda was a bad night working on the jeep, Anyone know where i can get one replacement femiale heim joint for a currie antirock?
