    It's a shame because the driver side is mint. But looks like a tuck and fold is coming up for both sides.

          Finally removed the smashed up rear bumper and fitted the straight stock bumper. Trying to plan a full day to dedicate to the rear suspension since I have a feeling that bolts will snap.

            Well, I pussed out of doing the rear shocks again....

            But hey.....rims got painted!


            Not the greatest job, but it will do the job until a set of spare ZJ wheels might be going on at the end of the month. That will be a another build thread as the wife is trading her Tahoe for a 97 ZJ in the coming weeks.

            After the rear gets situated, a fender trim is in the works in the next couple weeks. Also, swapped over the a/c clutch for another previously working one, and once again.....didn't work. No power once again to the compressor harness. Still trying to figure that out.

                          Update on the headliner: Should have figured that old adhesive wouldn't last long. So, next up is a redo with new adhesive

                            Ordered a set of OEM sway bar bushings today. Will install when they arrive. Hoping for more goodies with my birthday coming up.

                              Headliner 2.0 has been finished. This time with new adhesive. Ended up with a few wrinkles, but not bad for a quick repair job when it's too damn hot outside. That's good.

                              Now the bad/confusing: Checked the electric fan, and like I thought, no power. Same thing as the A/C relay....power to the relay, but nothing at the fan. This A/C thing is a nightmare. If I wasn't bad with the heat I'd say fuck it and tear it out. So on that note, is anyone on here good with diagnosing A/C stuff?

                              Finally, Sunday is going to be simple stuff...The sway bar bushings and a switch to Mobil 1 for an oil change. Hopefully a better filter will correct the psychotic oil gauge.

                                Finally, the A/C is fixed. My gauge was inaccurate...there was no freon Thanks to a surprise part out, also acquired a new serpentine belt, full size spare, fan shroud, and getting new leafs and bump stops Sunday. Been a good day
