This thread is to serve as an inspiration to others modifying their ZJ's. Pretty simple, just post what you did to your ZJ today!


Today I shamefully took my Jeep to get the oil changed because it was to hot to change it myself.

This weekend:

Changed front right axle assembly, put in CV style because that's all I could find. Shattered my old U-joint trying to get it out and broke the tone ring on it as well. :thumbdown:

Changed front rotors and brake pads. Put anti-seize on everything I touched. Also snapped a 24" breaker bar and a piece flew up and busted me in the lip. :rofl:

ordered a new motor for my M8274 which decided to poop on me (luckily i noticed it when trying to respool my line nice and not when i needed a tug) and removed the winch in prep for the motor swap and some other needed maintenance

Dropped it off at the body shop to get the hatch swapped out. No more rust! I'll have it back this afternoon, then it will be done for now. The Jeep and I are off to Rochester for college tomorrow. We'll see what kind of gas mileage I get over the 360 mile trip. I'm sure it'll be 20+, hoping for 22 (gonna have to try really, really hard for that). I'll post up tomorrow night or Wednesday morning and let you know what mpg I got, as well as what my Mom gets doing the drive in her 4.0 WJ (if I do better, I'll really have to laugh).

installed my RE 3" lower bump stop "hockey pucks" (I say installed, I just pulled the coil and dropped them in).
trimmed the front bumper as I kept pulling it off in the desert!!!
Found out I have either a bad relay or bad wiring for the e-fan. Good times as it is 45*C + here right now!
Oh yeah, and greased everything up for the fun of it!
