Watch out world, big update here!

 

When I swapped the dash, I didn’t change the glove box door lock. I was going through my extra parts and I decided I should finally do that. Yup, that’s the update.
 

The weather has been terrible this spring, so I have only put about 150 miles on it.

I put gas in it again Tuesday night, gave it a wash and put it away Wednesday night. 
 

Also the heater core went out. I’ve got a new one in the box, but not enough time before school to get it in. 
 

All said and done, I didn’t even put 400 miles on this thing all summer because the weather was just not great. Makes me feel bad for the farmers too. Most of the crops are behind and it’s already cooling off. Oh well. 
 

In some happier news, I might be teaching a family friend how to drive a manual early next week using the MJ.

Mmmm, the smell of a burning clutch. :driving:

I’ll probably start him on the tractor, then have him try the truck in 4 low. But you’re probably right. 
 

I also forgot to mention, 8,000 miles since July 2021.

I taught several people how to drive in my YJ. One of them was the girl who became my wife. Before her, I had no idea that my YJ could burn rubber in second gear. Hahaha

She didn't burn the clutch though. :laugh:

Starting on the tractor is a bad idea, in my opinion. They don't shift anything like regular vehicles. Start out in 4 low in the MJ and go from there.

I taught my current gf how to drive a manual in my MJ. That was fun. I haven’t decided for sure yet, but you do bring up a good point.
