put down peel n seal and then swapped my interior from the 88 to 90 and then discovered my pinion leaking gear oil all over the place.

I thought i would have at least a month before the bearing goes but i think i will have to swap the axle now.. grrr.

what is the peel and seal i keep reading of???

As much as I want to make fun of you for doing that, I can't, as I've always wanted to do that, along with beefing the motor and getting some mud tires and fog lights on it...

I AM guilty of the crime myself, including a 24volt upgrade to my son's yellow corvette.

check out www.modifiedpowerwheels.com

next is a remote controlled VDUB beetle for my daughter, cuz she's too little now, and it'll be 12v instead of 6v

Got it back. 80 bucks for a guy to stick an effin little hook down my window. What a gip lol.

On mine when the floors were rotten, i stuck my hand up through the floor and pushed the power lock button, it was a beeeeeeezotch wrestling with the carpet backing, but i got it, luckily it wasn't in a public place where people could see, so nobody laughed at me.:cheers:

NADA-DAM thing, lost my keys to the heep and the spares are also MIA, if my floors were still rotten, i could have stuck my arm up through, but those days are long gone.

ANYONE KNOW HOW TO SLIM-JIM A XJ???

I'll just do the toggle switch/push button starting thingie, always thought that was cool anyway.

Installed my CB inside my 97+ center console. I can pull the cord out when I use the CB. Then when I don't need it, I can stuff the cord back into the console.

Also installed a new Ram mount for my Garmin.

Wheeled it this past weekend.

Just got my DeeZee truck box and bolted it into the bed.

So where's your ebrake now???

went from this

to this

It's painted with rustoleum sunburst yellow, did all the prep work, though i didn't get carried away on the bodywork and what not seeing how soon this will be a trail rig only, as i'm looking to get an MJ for a dd.

i'll get better pics in the sunlight as soon as it stops raining for a day here in NJ
