Changed fluids in my front differential and transfer case, and the fluid and filters in my transmission. A few weeks ago, the power steering fluid got flushed and refilled so now my ‘02 has only fresh fluids in every system.
What did you do to your jeep today?

Finished building the rear shelf & covering it with carpet. Used 3/4" plywood.

Our place always has a spare bedroom (plus the RV), but my husband plows the driveway with the Cub Cadet. We just have to shovel out what the plow throws at the bottom of the driveway.
That said, the plow goes by at 50+ mph and there's 3 lanes until my driveway....
Hey like I said, if someone local wanted to do the leg work of finding the customers, laying out the routes, and getting the 3 squares/cot/shower aspect handled, I and my shovel guy would be down there ASAP, provided we're not hammered here ourselves. Other than not wanting to hot bunk and shower with 10 other people, I'm pretty low maintenance.

Well, it's the thought that counts...You can come to SC here to plow...oh wait...we don't get snow.
Listen I'd take the trip out to Ohio to plow, if i'm not busting drifts here already. Just have to have the right financial incentive.
I can't imagine there isn't already a large contingent of plow jockeys out there already though.

My 05 is driving me crazy. Unknown coolant vanishing. Pressure tested the system, held 16lbs for 45 mins. Next started her up with pressure attached to let her build, which she did with no problem. Saw a post on KJ page about possible pass through leak in the reservoir so changed it for a new one. The oil is clean and was changed about 2 weeks ago, no sign of AF in it. Started cold and watched the tail pipe, no huge white cloud. Passenger floor carpet and mat are dry and clean, no smell of AF at all. Going a little crazy here.
How fast does your coolant disappear? If it takes weeks, you might have a bad water pump. Coolant can slowly drip out the weep hole, but then only when it’s running. In that case it evaporates quickly and it can be hard to trace.

It will drop within a days use. Water Pump is new, but not by me. The confusing part is that it holds 16 pressure when my Stant pressure gauge is hooked up. Both with engine cold or at temp. Did the hydro carbon test in the res, and nothing there either. Res is brand new and is it's cap that came with it.

Titled & registered the KJ in SC a couple days ago. A total of $362 ($51 for the county tax & a SC $250 "impact fee" when you register a vehicle without paying sales tax, remainder was the title & registration fee).
Took the 03 on a job interview this morning
Yes I'm 66 and retired from the state, but people seem to think you are too old to work anymore when you get older than 60. Wife told me I had to work until she was ready to retire so I have another 14-15 years LOL Thats what I get for marrying a woman 20 years younger !!
But this would be a interesting job, couple of guys own a private Nature Preserve ( over 1400 acres )
Just need someone around to keep people off of it, plant corn, sunflowers etc for the wildlife in spring, mow paths to various areas
put out about 2000 lb of corn etc a week, during winter, at various spots around the property
3 tractors, 3 side by sides, 2 4 wheelers etc all there even an older 4WD Toyota pickup
got to show them what a little KJ with lockers front and rear will do as we went around inspecting part of the property
Oh plus can do all the hunting, fishing, trapping I want to do as well

How much do you have to pay them per month?

so, this is my first post here...
just finished building the rear shelf and a drawer/table
everything is tied down to the vehicle.
left side of the drawer is the water tank location (planned for the future).
the drawer has a latch (not seen in the pics).
this was a fun project

They even offered me a 3 bedroom house with free gas to heat with, etc, only have to pay for electric , out in the middle of it all with no neighbors for over a mile and a half or so at least
Yeah, it really does.
