Now, I'm broke!
Took me all of 48 hours to break something. Got her back on Thursday and kept her in the garage all Friday. Our Jeep club did the monthly group run on Saturday in Richmond, NH (great turnout, 19 Jeeps!). Within 4 hours, I apparently did something to my brake line in the left rear wheel well. One of the other guys noticed that the line appeared to have been caught on something (my new spring??) and snagged it. Our club president did "field triage" with some zip ties to lock it into place until I can get it replaced at Elias 4x4. Been told that it was only minor field damage. I am two for two getting trail damage. Last month, ripped off the rubber boot on front driveshaft and replaced it with a new Tom Woods DS. This month, brake line. They say things come in threes so what does next month hold?

Took the door hinges off to paint them, found that underneath paint was missing. not under the hinge itself, but closer to the front, on the door. like they put the hinge on then spray painted it.
what kind of half ass workmanship is this on jeeps part? and half ass work on a 25k vehicle. hell, fords cheapest model is at least made correctly
worried about what else they missed when painting it.

Bed-Lined my rusty seat brackets. Hopefully this will last for a while...at least longer than the one winter the factory paint did.
