conker Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Hit a bump and knocked my exhaust off while wheeling for the first time in a long time. Was my first time snow wheeling.
gogmorgo Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 surprised my swiss cheese exhaust is still on there after all the snow I've dragged it through... New axle shaft put in at 4am... I can drive again! :wrench:
AMCJeepMJ Posted January 28, 2013 Posted January 28, 2013 Threw in some Osram Silverstars and aligned the headlights.
Blue88Comanche Posted February 12, 2013 Posted February 12, 2013 last weekend dad and I replaced the front grill and headlight trim with chrome trim on dads MJ, it looks much better. We also replaced a fuel injector that was leaking. I replaced the windshield wiper motor on my MJ along with the intermittent control box. Its nice to have working wipers again! this weekend i will be ordering some C/V style axle shafts for my D30, and hopefully that will the the end of the clanking sound on right turns lol. Its been raining a lot the past couple days and I have been driving my MJ in full time 4wd. I have noticed i haven't spun the tires in the same spots as when i was in 2wd during the rain (up hill at a stop sign), normally in 2wd there is a little slipage but full time seems to put a stop to that. I am lovin my 242 now!
RubberDuck Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Replaced a high pressure line on the power steering, yep, spent valentines day with the one I care for most.
mvusse Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Pulled the Purple People Eater out of the shop, drove it to the end of the driveway, and pushed it back up the driveway and into the shop.Will be driving my RC for a week or so. @%$@ clutch grenaded when I went to pull out of the driveway.
HOrnbrod Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Relocated the IAT from the intake manifold to the K&N FIPK intake tube. Cleaned up throttle body and all associated sensors. Refurbished the backup ignition distributor and replaced the drive gear and sync pickup.
ComancheKid45 Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 Oscar got an Oil change, tire rotation and a grease job.
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Installed a new headliner and put sound insulation above the headliner and behind the back board under the rear window.
mvusse Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Flywheel is back on the crank, new clutch is in, transmission connected to engine again. Then I spent 2 hours looking for the transmission mount bolts. Eventually gave up, went to the hardware store, bought new ones and went home.
ComancheKid45 Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Just got finished Power washing road salt and grime off of 5 of the families Jeeps including 3 of mine.....now my hands are cold, lol
AMCJeepMJ Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Cleaned the contacts for both B-pillar lights... now they work consistently!
mvusse Posted February 25, 2013 Posted February 25, 2013 Drove it home after finally buttoning up the new clutch. Clutch is great. But engine runs like crap now. Almost impossible to stop without the engine stalling.
mvusse Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Plugged the vacuum line back into the MAP sensor. All is fine now.
SW86 Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 did a little rock crawling today. got stuck twice, caught some tire air quite a few times and best of all, didnt break anything! pretty sure my drivers unit bearing is on its way out. it was making some terrible noises :brows:
skidoo_j Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Installed my headliner from smsheadlinerbefore after
Vintage Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Replaced the brake booster and master cylinder. Having brakes will take some getting used to. :wrench:
gogmorgo Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 New pads and rotors... brakes started grinding. Pads were good, but when I checked the rotors, they were groovy, baby! Looks like the PO ground the pads down past the rivets once and did nothing to the rotor, since the pads had lots over a 1/4" still on them, just had worn to match the rotors. Guess I musta picked up a rock that made it grind, but I'm glad I checked. Braking is a lot less squirrelly now.
Minuit Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Topped up the tranny with some fresh fluid. Shifts much smoother now! :thumbsup:
AMCJeepMJ Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Replaced the water pump and thermostat. New coolant.
RubberDuck Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 Replaced the cat and muffler. thing was so full of holes it sounded like a rice rocket. It was my first time welding in a while, so i'm waiting to see if it falls apart on my way to work tomorrow.
AMCJeepMJ Posted March 19, 2013 Posted March 19, 2013 Pulled headliner to put more sound/heat insulation in this weekend, put headliner back in. Put a Ruff-Tuff saddle blanket seat cover on the bench seat, and put in LED glove box light yesterday.
