seriously, one of these threads needs to stay alive in the XJ/MJ section and what better time to get a real one going then now with the creation of the XJ/MJ GD. now, lets keep this going.

for me, all i did today was take pictures of my newly cut front bumper.

picture a few posts down.

replaced all the indicator bulbs on the drivers side in order to stop the fast flash. but that didnt work :brickwall
so we tore half of the dash out to get the flasher relay and turned back after it got to complicated. so all in all we accomplished nothing

i am happy with what i have seen with the motor mounts my dad has on his cj-5. and on my stock mounts the rubber part looked like crushed styrofoam, they were really bad on the drivers side, but what can you expect from 15 year old Arizona rubber

A bit of 'off roading' is always a welcome backup . Seems you had good weather for either 'sport' .

it was actually snowing earlier today and all of the roads were muddy. but the sun did eventually come out

^square tube with plate? Looks good.

Got the fill plug from BTF that 4wd forgot to send with my cover. Only took one day, awesome customer service for both of them.

Also got the 30 back apart.

30 on 30 action :teehee: Just have to pull everything else out of the housing and pray like hell the old shims come out right.

i bought them from rustys offroad. and they were expensive, always remember to not surf the interwebs when drunk :cheers2::nono:

X2 i dont think i ever saw those before. I like the rear ones especially.

snaped some pictures, kinda hard to tell with the amethyst paint, IMO it looks really killer in person. (edit) do any of you know how to get that white stripe below the door handles off? without gouging the paint too much more than it already is?

use a rubber eraser wheel.

i have a neighbor who owns just about one of everyting it seems, so i went down there and asked himif he had one, and he did. worked like a charm
bad news, the stripe is ghosted into the paint.

had 0 temp issues. Only time I have had temp issues is climbing really long steep grades (like 3-6 miles of 6%+ grades) going between phx and payson.

you're from az, are you familiar with the 87, going between phx and payson. There are 3 or 4 really steep hills, and a 6 mile stretch just outside of payson, and while I never got into the red, it did get to that last white line before the red... a little too close for my comfort. and that was just me and some camping gear, enough for 2 nights. Coming back down from that area, 0 issues and never got close to getting that hot. (with my wife kids and about 3x as much stuff.)

every time, lol

drove it to a movie tonight, and got pulled over by tribal police. i guess using my hid driving lights is frowned upon. he was cool about it though, except the part where he made me get out and unplug them.
