Feel free to start a thread for that ZJ too!

Precautionary measures replacing the blower resistor. Will be doing the improvement to the blower ground ground at the same time I do my battery cables.

Excited to get the battery cables updated and get the steel battery tray in.

As I mentioned before, my wife and I own a sign and vinyl shop. I will be making a new printed/laminated 3M decal for the coolant bottle cap to freshen that up a bit and add some flair.

Used some scrap print vinyl with matte laminate. Much better.

Got to work on the 97+ air box bottom

Nice!

Refreshed the ground by the washer bottle and ran another ground from there to the motor.

 

Added a ground stud to the relay bracket for the blower motor ground and ran a 4ga cable from there to the battery. 
 

Also installed the crankcase breather hose back on to the air box, and a new air filter. So nice having a non-warped air box!

It has arrived! No cracks or breakage anywhere. Going to get that spray bomb off of it

Oh yeah, that’ll really class the truck up.

Thanks!

After looking at some pics online of color matched grills (limited XJs) and consulting with my wife, I’m really leaning towards going with something like SEM trim black instead of glossy color matched black. That way I can paint myself and touch up myself if needed.

 

Color matched grill is pretty fancy for a Sportruck
