What did you do to your jeep today?

[lfhoward]

Back to Philly. Oil change indicator is on again. The Jeep knows I was towing with OD locked out. 3000 miles since the last one but most all of it was at 3000 rpm towing a trailer.

Oil changed. Using the headlight trick again on the KK, I didn’t spill any oil this time.

I've found that most of the amber LED pods are too bright for proper low visibility driving. Guess most folks don't understand bright ambers are no more useful than headlights for low-vis operations. How bright are the ambers on these?

They are bright but will work for what I will use them for . foggy last night and just using them in the driveway they cut right through
Don't know where they will end up for sure
Have 3 sets of Rigid LED pods sitting on the work bench now
need to gather everything together someday

First trip to the shop for an alignment
Found small amount of damage underneath from the Deer
Brought it home to repair that, nothing major , plus a tie rod end, ( drivers side ) its not bad, but have one in stock so replaced it this evening
Stock one at 170,000 miles so its paid for itself
Tomorrow it gets alignment, General Grabbers installed
white letters or blackwall ( haven't ran white letters on anything since 1978 LOL)
got flare clips today in mail so this weekend have to decide which flares go on

Laughing on white letters. I honestly didn’t even know they still made them. Always assumed someone got bored with a white paint pen these days.
To really mess with your tire guy ask for white walls…or even better red walls! (Remember those?) laughing harder)

(L.ol is censored? More laughter)

I have a full set of F 70x15 red walls , NOS ( new old stock ) mounted on Magnum 500s
Would never run them but good for a show vehicle

and yes these Generals have white letters

 

[sota]

lots of tires have white lettering on one side.
i'm currently running whites out on the jeep. i'd probably do it again.
seen some cars running around with blacked out wheels and white lettering. it's a neat effect at speed.
y'all do you though, and think nothing of what others say.

Well out talking to the owner of the shop I took it to, ( we worked together from 72-77 )
Went back in to see how they were doing and already had two mounted ,......black wall out : (
oh well

Looking good, although unmatched spare is making my OCD twitch. LoL

I took the WK2 out to scout some duck hunting spots. It's been a really warm fall, but I'm amazed that none of the northern birds are even starting to come through yet.

Had to go through some sketchy muddy sections of track and it just walked right through with the AT/Xs. Still gotta get some pics posted of it with the Eibach suspension installed

Its on the way ( spare General ) LOL

Idled it in the driveway to charge the battery while I cleaned out the garage. If I had a life none of that would have been necessary.

I had to idle the Jeep this AM & then scrape all the frozen windows. Try not to let it idle too long, as carbon can build up.
I took it on a good hwy run. Interior heat was great!
Poor Jeep deserved an oil & filter change as it was kinda getting black by 3000 miles.

Wasted the entire weekend rebuilding the front suspension on daughter’s Nissan. She blew a ball joint on the passenger side…and took out the axel with it…just got it all back together. Ready to got to the shop for alignment.

Good practice for what I’m doing to Bert next weekend…finally…hopefully…

Working on the KJ will be like tripping over a skunk in the middle of night, drunk, in a strange mountain forest with Big Foot chasing you
EASY , easy , easy

Hey guys, quick question: the replacement radiator I purchased has 2 extra ports on the passenger side rear of the unit. Can I just plug them or do I return the radiator for one without the ports? Previous radiator did not have them.
