man...what a weekend. I wrenched my ass off.
I'm afraid to start it up...and find out the new radiator /fan clutch don't work and leak like hell....
the exhuast manifold gasket still leaks after busting the knock sensor and snapping a bolt on the collector to pipe union to replace it...
the axle seals still leak after replacing those while putting in the new aussie
I KNOW I have to get new calipers tomorrow after one sprung a leak trying to put new pads in :skull1:
and those c4x4 tow hooks are gonna pull right out of the frame the first time Tony saves my ass :guitar:

overtime, I've concluded that anything that should take 1 hr, will take 1.5 to 2 due to issues that present themselves along the way. So take your estimated time and double it and thats how long wrenching on your jeep will take.

so I took a total of way more hours than I wanted to to get all geared up. Oh...and I lost my cell phone to antifreeze on my fingers. :wierd:
