I replaced the passenger side mechanism after falling down while on the freeway coming back from Ballarat, thank you duct tape. Its still a joy to drive every time.

Drove around with a Jeep Mohawk all day by not cleaning off all of the 30cm of snow that was on the roof.


Went over to a shop which makes bushings out of old Russian big truck tires (great product BTW...fantastic bushings). Had them make two trackbar bushings since the old ones were pretty much completely gone taking the steering with them.




Also picked up a couple cylinder sleeves for the 2.7 engine that's being rebuilt after the pistons melted on my second WJ.

Prices today:
Mohawk: Free (but some cold fingers)
Bushings: 400 Som each
Track bar removal and install 700 Som
Cylinder sleeves: 600 Som each
57.5 som=1 USD.

Not too bad overall.
