What did you do to your jeep today?

[mx3_ryder]

Thats great!!
At least not waiting till the tires start to wear off the edges before going in

Handles much better now!! Doesn't violently pull side to side over bumps and in 4x4 anymore. Couldn't get caster in but I guess thats normal for lifted KJ with stock uca's and won't effect tire wear. Also .1 off on pass side camber. Here is the spec sheet.

Pulled out the IAC and cleaned it.
Don't think it's been cleaned since the wife bought the jeep back in 2003.

Man.... it really needed a shower. Wished my hands weren't super dirty to take a quick picture. Before it was all black with crub, after cleaning, I could see the metal cone plunger.
Cleaned the TB as well.

That shake is the same as the playing in mud shake! I know it well.

Changed the oil and tried to figure out which brake is squeaking.

Me too, on the squeaking brake. No luck though. :shrug:

I replaced the rear hatch struts as soon as they came in today (the wife smacked her head on the glass last week). That was an easy 5 minute job

 

[CodeWarrior]

Removed the passenger side Upper Control Arm and sprayed it liberally with silicone lube, then put them back in. Quieted the most obnoxious squeaking and squawking I have ever heard.

installed/installing lift and dealing with the endless amount of cross threaded nuts courtesy of the stealership :favorites68:

 

[ltd02]

Added some 50/50 premix HOAT coolant. Hmmm, about a half quart low. Don't see any leaks but noticed the top hose junction at the engine side was a bit "moist". Tomorrow I'll get under her and also pull that hose and put the spring clamp back on. Switched to a worm clamp (seemed tight) last time I swapped the hose. Oil level was fine and not a speck of moisture on my oil fill tube cap since doing the TSB PCV change a few weeks ago.

Drove to church, it ran good, so came home and watched various Camel Trophy shows on Youtube. Too cold outside , garage is 45 so the heck with working on any of them !

 

[krisP]

finally installed ironman lift. about 21.75 in both front and rear, will have to take real measurements after alignment and on level ground. Did it by myself with no prior experience .... learned a lot to say the least hahaarty52:

could use a black light to see where the leak is.

Some day I'll get one of those. Checked it over very thoroughly despite our sudden winter weather. Couldn't find anything significant so I'm not that worried about an external leak. More concerned my head gasket job from a while back (15k on them) is not holding. Oil okay and running very well so I'll just keep an eye on it. :shrug:

drove the snot out of her. She ran like a champ, up & down the hills and around the cars that couldnt go anywhere. Near 0 visibility, snowing like no tomorrow, wind blowing. Typical Central NY winter weather. Get to do it again tomorrow.

 

[Leeann]

Saturday, changed the oil & filter and PCV valve.

Today, drove it in the cold (16°) and was really glad I changed the oil when it was warm (51°) out.

How long did it take you? If you had it to do all over, would you do it again?

 

[krisP]

How long did it take you? If you had it to do all over, would you do it again?

about 6 hours, but that includes the hour drive to get new nuts and bolts since i live in the middle of nowhere and couldnt find my tap and dye to rethread them.

Would definitely do it again... just maybe not in a non insulated barn in the middle of winter without an impact gun
