Currently tossing up whether I should remove the front bumper this eve in preperation for Saturday's big install. Also waiting, two weeks now for my headlight inserts to arrive . I keep getting told any day now. Heck the place is not even a Jeeps parts supplier . I am hanging to get the 90/130's back in again.

Regards A

Hubs are done. Turns out the ones supplied weren't timken units but I needed them anyway so went with what was available. Had to buy the 36mm socket and a breaker bar to suit and it all went quite well, both sides done in about two hours.

Props to Supercheap too, I managed to break my 4 year old Sidchrome 3/8" rachet today and I had broken the 3/8" little breaker bar in my kit a while ago. Went into Supercheap, the guy pulled one of the kits off the shelf and swaped out my stuffed parts for brand new ones, no questions asked or receipts needed. Quite happy.

I also tried the fabled 1:1 mix of acetone and ATF today in place of WD40. Works quite well from what I found.

fixed an exhaust leak between the top and bottom parts of the headers.
finally got around to extending the breather hoses on the trany and transfer case, and putting a breather on the dizzy.


also made a led that plugs between a injector and the harness to flash when ever the injector pulses

I like the enviromentally friendly cable ties...

Is the LED mod a test unit or are leaving it in full time?

Not a bad idea...

test rig, the plan is to leave it under the back seat, with the spare cps & coil & pull it out when disaster has struck.

Got the heater working. Hadn't been used for 4 years and seems nice and warm.
