I finally got off my lazy a$$ and geased the bushings/sleeves on my front and rear track bars. Should have done it 2 months ago. The squeeking is gone and the world is right . Now, another 300 miles and it time to change the diff fluids. Man, I love those 5.13's.

 

oil change... 16 bucks at the dealer. cant even buy the oil an filter for that.

 

Installed my new stereo system and now I can actually hear the music when the top is off.

 

What did you put in it for the stereo??

 

Finally got the lift on last week.

Pre-lift on cleaning day



and lifted

 

RgnNxn08, that's an awesome looking rig. Just right. Thanx for sharing the pics!!!

 

Well geese. i was all proud of my new grab handles (some ass-hair stole the old ones out of it in a parking lot) After seeing that Rubi, i think i need to rip up my man card.

 

I didn't have any time to do anything to it because I was busy doing something with it on the Padre Island National Seashore.

 

I finally got up to PA this past weekend to pick up my rear tube bumper and front tow hooks--got those put on I had my Hella fog lights installed--didn't have factory lights, so I got the kit with the upgraded turn signal lever.

I'm taking my JK in to Trick Trucks tomorrow to have my 2.5" BB installed.

On the downside, my wife informed me yesterday that I was done...no more Jeep upgrades...booooo. I've spent about $3500 so far. I probably should take a break for awhile. Post those low cost/cheap/free mod's so I can keep going please. I've already done the grill mod (twice-second times a charm...hopefully) and turn signal mod. I think I've figured out a good place to mount my high-lift jack also

I'll post some pics later of my tube bumpers--I haven't seen anyone else with those on. Though I do understand there not the best choice for off-road use, but I think they look a heck of a lot better than the plastic stock bumpers--sadly I ordered them before MOPAR had their off-road bumpers out.

I put on a soft top boot also--definately cleans up the appearance when the soft top is down. I installed the MOPAR (Besttop) one...pretty pricey, but well made. I saw a generic one online for about $40...looked okay for the price.

Well, off to find the camera to take some pictures. I need to get some before shots before my lift tomorrow.
