Put the hard top and full doors on. Washed all the cobwebs off.
The top has not been on in almost 2 years.
The wiper/washer/defrost even still work.

Ready for snow? Most likely the mall. :oops:

Magnets. Off for washing, and non-club related treachery.

I replaced my 5.5" springs with 3.5" springs on my LJ. Was tired of the body roll around corners and behavior in crosswinds. Have some minor track bar adjustments to make today. :thu:

Well... I did something spontaneous over the weekend... traded away my little red LJ for this:

If anyone is interested in the LJ, it is at the Lithia Jeep dealership in Kennewick.

Massive Downgrade. Pretty JK though.

Yep... new rig is certainly not as "rock worthy" as the LJ... but the JKUR will fill a dual-purpose role as a daily driver and family wheeler. I'll be shopping for a salvage / cheap TJ for a more carefree (don't need to drive it to work Monday morning) trail rig that I can push to it's limits. :cool:
