What did you do to your Jeep today?

Cleaned the inside of the windshield, the dash, steering wheel, shift noobs. My advice, "DO NOT LEAVE AND UN-OPEND CAN OF POP IN YOU JEEP IF THE TEMPS GET TO -20 AT NIGHT"!!!!

Decided to clean the compressor unit mounting brackets for the original AC unit I purchased about a month ago for the rig. Getting ready to start that project in hopes it brings warmer weather!

I had the same issue and it was the gasket under the windshiel frame. Once I replaced it, no more problems
 
Went out playing in the snow, we got about 6.5"
That truck in front of me wrecked about a mile up the road



Had to take my wife back to work to tend to a dog

I always think I'm a better snow driver than I really am - usually some low speed ice braking brings me back to reality.

I haven't had any accidents, but there were a few almosts with the last round of snow.

Lol yea I've never wrecked and I'm sure I drive faster than I should. I'm not even sure how they spun out we we going about 35, I looked up and he was sliding off the road lol
 
I put a new ignition key mechanism in since I lost my keys. Figured that was the easiest way to solve the problem and would get me back into working on my jeep again. I'm excited to back in it. :)
 
I made a new front bumper using my old warn bumper, a harbor freight winch mount, a stinger I bought off of eBay for $11.. I cut it and widened it 10". And some lifting hooks. After about 6 hours of plasma cutting, welding and grinding this is what I ended up with.

I started on a winch mounting plate. Going to use the old flunky bumper for now. Next time it gets bent will consider replacing it.
 

P1080828.JPGToday I mounted the plate and winch. Need longer bolts to mount the tow hooks. At my pace this project should be done by the end of next month. :rolleyes:

Halfway done with the lift, probably finish it up next weekend. <img src="http://www.jeepz.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=20501"/> <img src="http://www.jeepz.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=20502"/> <img src="http://www.jeepz.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=20503"/>

Longer swaybar connectors?? So it functions properly.
Adjustable track bar?? To keep track bar parallel to steering and minimizing possibility of DW.
 

I bought the entire rubicon express 5.5" long arm kit complete. Also a lock right for the front axle because it's un noticeable in 2wd on the street. Plan on a ford 8.8 next year. Kit has everything you mentioned and more , very nice kit, my jeep also has a 3" body lift that was on it when I bought it but I will be taking it out as soon as I'm done with the re lift.
