it'll get tint on is first and I will have photos as I go along..
and as for the other jeep, it'll be in the garage for the mean time til I get it to the mechanic to have him work on the wiring...
all in all the jeep is very clean but it needs a good wash and wax and also be vacuming it out a bit... but as of now it's sitting at my brother inlaw's house til friday morning then I'll have the tags on it, Just in time to go out for the new year party! can't wait!!

:congrats: It is too bad you don live within a hundred miles of me. I could bring some meters and start chasing that down for you.

Maybe we can see how many people want to buy stickers, like we did for the t-shirts. The more people that want stickers, the cheaper they will be.

Ok, Now that I got the jeep home, I started giving it and good bath and vac.
then I took it for a drive to the parts store to get vacume plug as I had a litle vac leak on the intake, and as I was going to the store I heard sumin snap! and I was like WTF?!! and noticed the steering was tight and I thought ok I threw a belt (no problem) turn back home and popped the hood and saw that the belt was rapped arounf the fan... ok no problem undo it and put it back on.... while I was turning the fan arond i heard hit sumin and looked down and saw the damper was moved forward and I was like HUH??? so I got down and looked and I could not believe what I saw...:headshake: the damper came apart..:smiley-scared002:.... Well no problem I have 2 laying around so I repalced it and back on the road again :driving::thumbsup:
What a way to start the new year!! :smiley-laughing021:

Well once I get the other one fixed I'm going to drive it around and see which drives the best and keep that for road driving but will still put a lift on it and the other will be my weekend trail ride!

They grow in town here. You can grab an orange right now off the tree while you stroll.

That was at my brother inlaw's house he own 115 acres of orange groove... Yeah it is nice to walk by one and pick one off like I do when I go out there to replace all the sprinker heads... Thats a pain in the a$$ to do
