We had Christmas today (23rd) at my house. Here are 2 of my "jeep" related gifts.
I've got 3 vises but none are in the shop where I work on my Xj, soooo:

This will keep the busted knuckles to a minimum while using the drill press:

Well its Christmas day and I got a canon rebel t2i with a tamron 18mm to 280mm lens. Just what I asked for! Got the wife a video game and she hasn't put it down since she opened it like 4 hours ago. I did buy her other things to just I think she likes that the most! $20 well spent!

[702XJCruiser]

I got early xmas presents. Few days ago my mountain bike shifter broke so I ordered $400 worth of parts to upgrade that. Then my computer took a dump. Then my transmission took a dump. So I had to go buy a new computer so I could get on here and find out about fixing transmissions. Oh yeah! hahaha

[BlueXJ]

702XJCruiser I have about 4 spare trannys under my shed i have been robbing parts off of 1 and the others are Renix years so 21 spline. I stockpiled them and a few transfer cases as well. Most were from CL but one was out of a 89 that was a rustbucket we cut up and sold. So my suggestion is to start doing the same thing and buying up ones from CL. I never paid more than $50 for any of them.

As to Christmas presents, we open presents after supper and we eat late, so I have not been surprized yet. I do know I got a box of cigars that I wanted since I was asked what brand and size I liked.

[Carves]

............i don't need all that recovery gear....:rolleye0012:

What sort of recovery gear ????

365 discount vouchers ..... from the local tilt tray driver ??? :p

:D:D


I have one of those drill press vises, very handy indeed.

Most definitely .. :thumbsup:

[HPI_Savage25]

I got my dad'd Ithaca 37 featherlight 12 gauge that was given to him by his dad years ago. Also got a vest, ammo box and some money. Also the GF is getting a RC 4.5" lift kit as a Christmas present but I wont get it for about another 2 months.

[dagr8tim]

I only wanted some small things. I got a Smith & Wesson 'tactical' ink pen, a set of bug eye safety glasses, OBDII Bluetooth adapter for my phone, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II for Wii, and a ton of gift cards to Amazon & Harbor Freight.

[LizardRunner]

I got a nice bottle of Rum, A new Sthil chain saw, a SOG Machette, a ship in a bottle and a line on an M-110.:D

[Joliet Johnny]

The Metal Gear Solid collection for the 360, a robe, ebay gift cards, and a really nice metal detector so I can look for treasure as the wife swims.

Oooo... details on the detector? I've got a low end White's that's pretty nifty. My first time out afew years back I found a 1944 Walking Liberty 50 cent piece. It was my first find and most people were amazed that I found silver the first time out.

Gotta love those Stihl saws. I have logged with them and cut fire wood commercially for years. :thumbsup:

[HPI_Savage25]

Hey, great GF:thumbsup:

Lol yeah! I can't wait to get it! In the meantime I will be saving for rims/tires. I am using my Christmas money to get a new headliner put in. Should have it back today or tomorrow. Doing mossy oak on the headliner, roof center console and on the sun visors.

Don't park in the forest, you will not be able to see the inside of your Jeep :rolleye0012:

That is a nice looking rack... That was one of the ones I was strongly considering picking up once I take care of a few other items on my XJ, so I look forward to hearing a review about it after some use..

[XJ Wheeler]

I got a headlight harness, EBC pads and rotors, custom gauge faces, Jeep 2500 taillights:D, an original 92 xj owners manual (mine didn't have one), a couple knives (utility and hobby), round file, and seasons 1&2 of Titus on dvd.

Where did the gauge faces come from?

I got em from ebay, these have their own lighting so i'm gonna have to wire them in. Looks easy though. Here's the link - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Jeep-Cherokee-91-92-93-94-95-96-Halo-Glow-Gauges-/150456479015?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr&hash=item2307e7ad27

you HAVE to do a writeup on that bluetooth setup! Ive been wanting to get one for a few months now to use with the android app "torque" ... let us know which model you got and how it works with your setup!!! im sure MANY of us wanna see the operation!

[XJ4IV]

I got a new socket set from the inlaws YAY... and my folks sent me a GC to sears... cause I said I needed to replace lost tools... guess I can put the gift card towards a nice compressor!!! WOOT!!!

Muddyroy has the same setup. Infact he gave me the chipset model number of the one he had, and I ordered one with the same chipset. I already plan on making a youtube video of the setup once I have it done. (It's currently about 25 degrees in Ohio & the inlaws are in, so I can't go hide in the garage right now).

the only thing that would make those better is to have black gages during the day

[4.3LXJ]

Sigh, they won't fit mine.:mad:

[bluedragon436]

Well it was a few days after Christmas, but got a set of mounts for my D-Cell LED Mag-lite from my Uncle.. Can't wait to install it, as soon as I figure out where I want it.. Didn't know what mounts I would end up purchasing so hadn't figured a place to put them yet..

[dagr8tim]

This is where I mounted my 3 d Cell mag. It's easy to snag as you're jumping out.

That is actually the same spot I can up with using for mine too.. Only going to be my 2D cell LED Mag for now, but will put it so that I can install 3D cell later once I get the LED version.. I love my LED Mag's as they are brighter, and the batteries last way longer.. the batteries that are in mine right now, have gone through two complete clutch changes in my wife's car, as well as working on my BMW and a few other cars in Germany.. Been in there for over 5 years, which I think is pretty amazing for any flashlight..

I wanna do the LED mod on all of my mags.

[bluedragon436]

I've done it on my 2D cell Mag, I have a 3D and even a 4D (which I just found under the back seat of my XJ when I was looking for place to mount my Mag mounts), which I would like to convert over to LED..
