I was born in 89, so no...I'm pretty sure if the other guy just got his liscence he would be at the very least 16 so that wouldn't make sense either. Nice try though.

Preppi (Matt) helped me (more like did all the work for me-- i barely got my hands dirty) swap out the passenger side knuckle and replace front pads and rotors. Also tightened up the track bar bolt which made my steering SOOO much better.

Only problem is the knuckle isn't ABS. Right now the cables are just tucked back into the frame. Now the ABS light is on and I have no ABS at all.

Looking good guys. Did you meet up with him in Petersburg or did he make the haul to Lexington?

No problem Lee. Glad I could help out. Even though you don't have abs on that one side now atleast your caliper is good to go. and you won't be tearing up pads and rotors anymore. You probably won't notice any difference except the light thats on in your face. :)

And he came down here...the pic he took was in front of my garage.

My summer job has been requiring me to travel back and fourth from Newport News (gas paid for) so it's been getting a lot of highway miles lately. These are just some poser shots I took while I was bored.

Lets see what I've done with it this summer..

-New cheapo rear Monroe Shocks
-All new rotors and pads and pass side knuckle
-Replaced a bunch of bulbs both interior and exterior
-4 New JBL door speakers
-Installed CB and got it working
-Bought a bunch of new tools and a decent floor jack to wrench on the ZJ with (it makes all the difference when you have the right tools-- I can actually get something done now!)
-Installed new 32 tooth speedo gear
-Painted and installed my new JCR Stage II sliders last night (more pics later)
-Did a crappy job, but through some left over black paint in the fender wells
-Put ~5,000 miles on it

Still need to install my tranny cooler that I've had in the box for a month..
Toying with the idea of some new, nicer riding shocks
Maying locking one of the axles after I get some more hardcore wheeling in this fall.

Its a cobra somethin'..

Took it out for a test run today before I go to Rausch Creek this Saturday. Banged the sliders into all kinds of rocks. The ZJ continues to amaze me.

My friend was recording it when I backed off a tricky rock. I tried to go over a big rock and catch it on film, but i didn't have the angle. Hit the front tow hooks. You can hear her laughing at me.
