Pulled the Jeep into the garage to change the water pump. Don't even remember what prompted my to try but now it wont start. I hadn't even touched the Jeep yet! Guess I'll be trouble shooting this instead today.

Bought some front brake lines, and started spraying all my bolts

I started cutting away at the front lower fenders to make room for the bumper. But I realized I dont have any safety glasses, and I need a better cutting wheel. Sooooo ill try again tomorrow.

I got it started by crushing the gas and turning the key. Fired right up. I guess it was flooded. Tightened the serpentine belt and checked the tension with my new kricket II.

Don't mind the hack job on the fenders and flares. I'll be smoothing things out later after I get a few other things done.

I finished my D30 1 piece axle shaft upgrade. Took out my Posi-lock cable. Tomorrow I will install my new CB antenna and remount my CB in the rig and then do the same to my DD

Pulled off the header panel and the passenger fender so I can bang the corner back into shape, smooth out my fender and install my new header panel. It will be nice to not have a smashed up Jeep with one headlight pointing at the ground 15' away.

Tried to get the Jeep aligned this morning. They gave me a demonstration on how my wheel bearing was worn out so I changed it out tonight. My new best friend is my new 24" breaker bar. It sure did some flexing while taking off the axle nut.
