The thule was rubbing on my fork on rough roads and it had worn the paint off. I didnt want to do that to the new fox 36. Gotta pay to play

So at Uwharrie or Broken Nut, I hit my exhaust on a rock and it shifted the whole bit and cracked my header. I got a new header, and was going to schedule an appt at the exhaust shop that did it before, they did a great job, they just routed it under one of my control arms and it hung to low. I called them and they said they didnt want anything to do with it. its too tight. Soooo... time for plan B. Find another exhaust shop.

My usual guy is already part time and last time I ran into him he said he might be out of it completely end of the year. I guess next time I need something serious I'll have to buy a builder's kit.

They all lazy as fawk now. My explorer sat for days at our shop here for manifold gaskets. Went to pick it up and and he goes "man them things hard to get to it'll be expensive" I said ok do it. "Man I just really don't want to". Took it home and did it myself easy peasy. Not a single bolt broke.

In my head I read that in Boomhauer's voice...

Thats exactly how it sounded to me. No pride in the work. Its not like i even asked him about price, i just wanted him to run it over the control arm instead of under it.... Nah, its too tight.

“The Muffler Shop” on Huger st. down town have done some good work for me. It’s close to that glass blowing place.

Still kicking, just washed her last weekend and she’s ready for another adventure.

Had a good time with the jeep at Harlan for #OSCARX and we just got back from the Clemson Poker Run. Its been doing great. I made my way over to Tommy Glenns Muffler shop on friday when we got there and got my exhaust rerouted and its much better now. The drive up and back made me finally decide to go for some carpet in the jeep and some sound deadening. I also came to the realization that its almost time for new tires.

37" KM3s?

 

[97TJGUZZY]

37" KM3s?

probably going to stick to 35s, the jeep works really well at this size. Also its a little more reliable on 35s.

Not gonna like that...

, I did buy some bedrug carpet for it also....Just looked at Tire prices after you posted and it looks like i can still get 4 KM3s for around$1000, or 5 for $1300. So its not as bad as I thought it would be.

Man I wish 40s were that affordable. You can double that for the tires I had on the jeep. 39 reds are 900 a pop 😳

yeah, thats another reason i'm running tiny tires. 35s are the new 31s.

Started on the brakes this morning and found that my driver side tie rod end has shit the bed. It’s only 16 year old, dang cheep crap. Guess it’s time for some new ends.
