What was done to your rig this week?

[WJCO]

Nothing fun but I did have a passenger sun visor break (the one that rarely even gets used). Come to find out, because of the LED inside, it comes with a wiring harness and requires more tear down to repair than I'm willing to do for something so simple. I found a company online that makes a clip for JLs and JTs that holds it up permanently and it looks factory enough that I'm just going to go with that option.

Well that is just stupid! Glad you were able to find a way to make it work and with something made in the USA

This is fairly common on JLs, there's a fix that entails using a dremel to cut a groove around the remains of the shaft and then putting a spring nut on it to hold it in place. Its on another forum so I wont link it here, just google "jeep wrangler jl sun visor repair".

Axle swap in progress, found my control arm bushings are close to shot. While I wait on rebuild kits working on installing new rear flares and wheel well liners.

Not so much this week, but I got a CB Bar installed and a new Uniden PC78LTX. I’m working out how to mount the antenna and then I will wire the cb in. Thanks Eddie!

 

[JimLee]

Drivers side flare and liner done. Bushings out for delivery. Ill get the rear control arms rebuilt today and hopefully be stuffing Dynatrac awesomeness under the rear tomorrow.

Finally changed the DRLs to LED lighbulbs. They are all led now so that people on Facebook can tell me how I'm blinding them and their unborn children using leds on Halogen projectors.

Rebuilt my rear contol arms, lots of dead and dying bushings in there but they are like new now.

If you can’t burn the wings off a moth at 100 paces, you’re doing it wrong

I like it. What’s involved?

I like it. What’s involved?

You pull the 4 bolts out of the console so you can lift it. Unbolt the front seats. Remove the trim along the bottom of the door. Rip out the carpet and lay this down on the floor. Put the trim and bolts back in.

Pulled the interior out to add some sound deadening. Waiting for brown Santa with a crutchfield order to update the tunes. For 17 years old the tub is in great shape gotta love AZ

I really like that. I just checked their website. I may do this on my gladiator. Have you had any spots you've had to clean yet? Easy/hard?

I’ve seen this done before and was curious if it really made a difference. At some point I’m wanting to rip this dumb carpet out since I feel it’s stupid to have carpet in a wheeler. Looking forward to hearing how this works out.

That’s awesome! Congrats! From the top picture, it almost looked as if you were holding the Jeep up with your tire carrier lol

Thanks! Being able to lift the frame high enough with the gantry and just roll the axle in with wheels on really made a tough job easier. Doing an axle swap outside, on the ground, is brutal as it is. You know, that LOD tire carrier could probably do it, lol.

Got the rear Kings in place. Now on to the 300 little projects that come with an axle swap/coilover conversion, sway bar, brakes, brake lines, parking brake conversion, axle vent extensions, adjustments, adjustments, adjustments. Then the front...
