What did you do to your jeep today?

[Johnny O]

Magnificent weather today. Punching the clock and blowing out early to get that tank armor on…maybe bust some rust on the tow hitch while I’m at it.

 

[tommudd]

Drove to work
Had to check some things at work and down over the hill by the old motocross track ( over a mile and a half long track up and down over the hills )
so had some fun playing on it , well part of it , jumps too extreme for a DD LOL

Went to salvage yard near me, there was a 05 renegade hit front drivers side. I got the remaining 3 fender flares, factory tow hooks, and roof rack. Roof rack looks different than the earlier model renegades I've seen pictures of, it looks more like the standard one but with larger diameter thin wall round tubing.

Figured I'd put an oddball question in here too, I'll be doing a handful of things to the kj soon and wanted to know what's best to do with how to post it. Do I make separate threads for each of the projects that I wanted to share, or make one thread?

Yes the 05 and up had a larger diameter pipe for the rails on the renegades
One way to quickly spot them
But they did not get the Tupperware that 02-04s had on the renes


Now go to the section

Members' Journals​

where you can start your own journal and make posts of what you are doing to your KJ in one section

Some like to do that to show what they do
Others just do it like me and never hardly show anything LOL
of course Im old

Only way I found out I was crazy, doing it wrong, or wasting money was from all the good advice in my Journal.

Brakes are done did. My wife picked up 2’ of 1/4” tubing for me, and I found an empty pop bottle. The fluid that came out wasn’t terrible. I’ll do a full fluid change later when I replace the other hoses.

 

[Johnny O]

New toys arrived. Installed anti-glare on the hood. Just a few more things left to do and Bert is desert ready.

On a roll. Good weather and no students means lots of Jeep time. Now to see if I can get the last few frozen bolts off to mount the tank armor….

now the kid gets to put in a bunch of sweat equity for it to be his when he's of driving age.

 

[profdlp]

Will you adopt me?

 

[LibertyTC]

If I'm not mistaken your son's head appears to be taller than the windshield.
1st mod a roll bar.
Then..
Hey Dad, don't you think it would be so cool to lift it just like the Jeep !

 

[sota]

I think he's sitting up so he'd appear in the picture.

And the first "mods" are to get it running. Has no go. The seller thinks it's the clutch is totally smoked.
We'll get into it and see what's what.

Sweat equity is the best way to teach a kid automobiles. Very cool you are doing this project. It was how I learned. First car was an 82 Buick Le Sabre Custom. Was told the engine was smoked. Discovered that the carburetor was plugged up. Learned that I liked aircooled VWs better. LOL

[sota]

She doing all right?

 

[LibertyTC]

My Thoughts are with your Mom right now Tom. I hope she will be fine.

 

[Johnny O]
