Drug it to my backyard with the jeep. Wheels are locked up so instead of doing the smart thing and unhooking the drive shaft I just threw the jeep in 4 lo and drug the bastard lol

Completely rebuilt the front suspension in the parent's 2004 this weekend. Everything was fairly easy due to large bolts/nuts and low corrosion. Aluminum parts are very nice. Except when trying to press lower ball joints...

Haha it really isn't too bad, and I have done it a couple of times now. I'll be out in a couple weekends...! :hidesbehindsofa:

If you plan on doing the front shocks though, best of luck... I could not get the lower bolts on my 97 to come out and ended up having a shop cut them out with a torch.

I finally got some strobes on order. Amber for my fog lights and reverse lights. And a red visor bar with takedowns.

Front shocks were the easiest bolts to pull on mine when it got the works up front!

I'll admit though I anti-seize everything- I had them off once before and now everything front end wise could come of w/o an impact if needed!

I did my shocks a few years back. They went easy.... if the rest of the suspension goes as well I would be thrilled but I don't count on it.

I've finally had it with these ipcw led tails. I'm on the 2nd replacement set and I start losing leds after about 1-2 months on each set. I loved the way they looked but for now I'm back to the stockers until I figure out something else. I had to destroy them to get my money back......it made me sad lol.

That sucks cause they are nice looking taillights. Cheap manufacturing...

Yeah it does, I really liked how they looked compared to all the other aftermarket lights I've found but, the wheels in my head are turning and I have a few ideas I'm bouncing around up there.

I recently bought it, doing some PMS changing oils etc. After PMS I would probably look for a good wheels and tires. Thanks!
