No pictures because it's not that exciting. Installed an arb transit cover on my ARB fridge that I got for Christmas. I like it, but now all my stickers I had on the lid are covered :(

Cool looking latch pin. I bet this guy I seen on the side of the road in SLC UT would want one for his Jeep. I drove by seen him standing on his bumper with one leg and kicking the shit out of the massive dent in his hood from what looks like it wrapping around the top of his Jeep. I may have a video of it from my dash cam, Ill check, but it was one of those cringe worthy but due to the way the guy was carrying on, funny moments.

hahaha, I haven't had the hood flutter issues as bad as some but these are supposed to take care of all that. I was gonna be happy with some cheapy one ones but the Wife thought these looked cooler. I agree, I feel all race car now lol

Had a marathon afternoon with my 08 Wrangler. Changed the motor oil, transfer case oil, front and rear diff oil, and flushed out the old brake fluid and put new in. Then I prepped my AEV snorkel for tomorrow morning. Hoping that cutting the hood goes well! I will probably have pictures and an update tomorrow. Can't wait to see what she looks like!!!

Replaced the fuel filter, the broken windshield fluid reservoir and pumps, new blades, new sunvisor clips, I'll post pics when I get home.

While I have all of the experience and expertise here, I have a quick question.

So I replaced the filter (the old one was really bad) and the truck is running great, nice and responsive. However, when sitting in traffic in gear it started to nearly stall and sputter, so I held the rpms up till I got to work. When I got to work I let it run in gear and sputter and nearly stall, then after a second or two it picked the rpms back up and settled into a nice idle, but the "new" idle speed is quite low in comparison to the "old" speed. Should I be worried? I figured it was the computer figuring out what to do with the new found fuel flow

Edit for clarification: the idle is still within the factory specs, but it's on the low side, in the past it was on the high side

Check your stepper/idle air valve, prob needs cleaning or replacement.

Long story but the short of it, I turn left to try and not get hit by him square head on. He was in my lane but some how im at fault because they wouldnt take witness statements from the other 3 people because they were my family. Everyone was fine.
