So today I added some horse power (the glock and wrangler stickers) what do you guys think!

So for the first time since I owned the jeep I fix the oil pressure gauge! I broke down and spent the 30 bones for a new oil pressure sending unit, the pic I posted are the cold idol pressure and the hot idol pressure what do you guys think of these numbers? the man reason I pushed to fix this today was because this morning when I fired the old pig up it had a nice knock to it (sounded like it had no oil) which lasted for about 20 seconds. It ran fine all day today and has't done it since but it worried me. I thought maybe I had the wrong weight oil in it but I think it was a fluke deal or something (I run delo 400 10w30) I will just have to keep on the look out to see if it does it again!

So I had a buddy give me a old junk Tj upper to you around with and look like they should work great with my softtopper! I am going to buy a nice set from him for 150! I know that last leg needs welded back on but keep In mind this was a text fit! Today I also got my new seatbelt buckle from quadratec so no more duck tape for me! Lol




So picked the Tj uppers from my buddy today now I just need to weld the last arm back on and i will be set!

o I am looking to do a cheap (60 dollars) mod and have narrowed it down to either a steering box brace or a set of gen right hood louvers! I don't even know if add a gear box brace would be worth the time since I am only on 33s right now all tho I am locked in the front, and I don't over heat or anything like that I just really like the look and idea of louvers! so with that said what should I do first lol?

here is a link to the louvers I want

Thanks for the props woody! I just got the phone with genright and have a set of long black hood louvers on the way (they are on a 2 week back order) I can't wait to cut some holes in my good hood! Also I got a tracking # from brown dog so I should have my motor mounts real soon!


4-27-2012

So tonight me and my buddy got my Tj uppers finished (welded the rear arm post) that's it for tonight lol!

So my mounts should up today, I got them thrown on tonight since I going out wheeling tomorrow! I over tighten the threw bolts on them and had the rig shackle like a dog passing peach pits (bad vibes from being to tight) so I went out and loosened them up and will see it that helps! So the drivers front mount witch I had replaced a couple of month ago was wasted and the passenger side was the one squeaking and it turns out the metal sleeve was ovaled out so I guess the squeak was the threw bolt rubbing I the wrong way! Lol

Went out today to walker valley with 91BoD and had a blast! It was wet and sticky out, so my winch got a really good work out today. I took no damage today but my buddy really tore up his xj all done today he shatter a rear window ,ripped a rear door handle off, tacoed both upper control arms, and a stick came up and ripped his wires off his fuel pump Which ended the day needless to say he got towed home thanks to 91bod!

Tonight I installed a longer set of shocks on the front to try and gain a little more droop in the front! I will almost be able to use all the shock travel on full stuff and hopefully gain a little down travel with the added length from them! I guess it's time to measure my rear shocks to see if I need to order up a set of longer ones for them to, then off to test the flex I will go! I also pulled of the valve case cover to take care of a little oil leak I had going on and man did the Po ever like rvt! I am take. The cover to work to give it a chemical bath than I should throw it back together tomorrow can't wait to drive it again its been a whole day going on two without driving it and I already miss it lol!
