So this morning I finally got around to swapping my drivers worn seat bottom for the passenger side. Easy peasy and looks a ton better not to mention the added comfort. I hope the pic works lol

very easy. seat removal was three15mm bolts and one 17mm nut. you also have to remove the seatbelt from the seat frame which can be accessed through the side of the trim via access hole.that is also a 15mm bolt. cushion removal was removing the plastic trim, all Philips screws btw. you will have to remove the seat back release cables from their mounts, which is also a Philips screw btw, because they go through the side of the cushion material. then just unhook the plastic clips from the frame and the cushion just comes out. the clips are about 6in wide and have a lip on the inside so they don't accidentally come off. you just push against the clip and slide it off the frame. I know I know...shoulda took pics.

Put in a new transfer case shifter bushing. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/112525641157
Worked pretty good. Now it is all back to nice n snugg.
Just one ?. I see there’s a white retainer maybe that’s used on wranglers and other kJ years. Is one of those supposed to go on the end of the stud on the linkage? It’s actually been there without even a bushing for a couple years and had never come off.

Swapped out my front passenger side axle. Replaced it like 6 months ago and almost immediately after putting in the outer boot popped off. Cleaned it, regressed it and then developed 2 holes in the inner boot. Tried sealing them with epoxy but still let grease out.
Finally started clicking like two weeks ago offroading occasionally. Last weekend it got worse. Last time I used a reman from Napa. This time went with new from Napa. Laid them side by side and appeared to be the same length. Hopefully the boot doesn't come off.
The Spartan locker I installed in the rear is doing great.
Passenger side front diff mount needs to be replaced. Found the bushing on ebay for $40 + $40 int. shipping. Probably going to snag a few.

No additional retainer is needed for this bushing. I like that replacement you found. Half the price of the factory one. Think I'll pick one up as a spare.

Always get remaned. They accidentally gave me a new one once and it was clicking within a week.

messed around with my bluedriver and found the abs code was u1418 (right wheel sensor) time to track some wiring since both front and rear are less than a week old.
That bluedriver is pretty cool, lots of good live info.

I would start by clearing the code and seeing if it comes back.
comes back right when i turn the jeep back on. the right front wire was all good, will have to get time to pull the rear wire out of all the loom

Backwards.
Some wear on a reman is still there. Can't be less unless it's new. Confused parts maybe.

Drove my daughter to school, fitted my roof rack, fitted my maxtrax to said rack. Looked at her for a bit. Picked my daughter up from school.
