Seized the opportunity to take the top off today being a nice mild 80 here in west Texas
I took the top and the doors off yesterday. All of today I have had to see it just sitting in the parking lot until I get off. Unfortunately I work a 24 hour shift. I hate looking at it, while at work, and thinking that I could be out cruising.

Changed the oil, sparkplugs and fixed the stereo.

This jeep has brought out the inner mechanic in me. I haven't ever changed oil or sparkplugs in any vehicle I have owned. I did change oil at a Ford dealership when I was 19...but not in my own driveway.

For tomorrow, ordered a steering stabilizer and will put it on. PB'd the bolts so they should be good to go.

And next week, the shocks all around are being replaced by me.:punk:

I have 15x10 wheels but I want new ones and I'm debating in getting the same or if I should get 15x8s? Does anyone know if this will change the look or how far the tire will stick out?
Im sure it will if you got a 10" wheel with 4" backspacing there is 6" of wheel past the hub. On a 8" wheel with 4" backspacing you would have 2" less past the hub
