Bradywgn71 1,017 Posted April 19, 2023 Been working too hard on normal repairs for our Jeeps and RV so no fun projects. However, we did upgrade the taillights. We cracked them wheeling on that "fun" night of recovery. Amazon taillights link 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bradywgn71 1,017 Posted April 29 (edited) So it's been way way too long since I updated this thread. With the last two years of spinal surgeries the Jeep has been mostly ignored until recently. She also got a new reman engine put in in August of 2024 and a new transmission in 2025. Now for more fun news.... This winter Chris and a friend repainted the entire Jeep. She really needed it and was showing her age. Just a barn paint job but what a huge difference! The custom AZ pinstripe from before: The rusted screws on the hood vents: After sanding: Some of the prep work (which took way longer than I knew): Old Headlights: New Headlights: Then after a few coats of professional paint and clear coat: Also done with this makeover: -New darker tint on all the windows and windshield (we have the AZ MVD doc note for that) Repainted everything underneath -Repainted roof rack and bumpers - Removed CB Radio -Installed new HAM radio antenna cord (the one we had was breaking after years of abuse) -New driver's mirror -Fixed window actuator so the glass will go up and down So this is what we have left to do on this makeover: -Install the new 12k winch - Fix the gas tank (not wanting to fill issue) -Finish the new tablet radio install and enhance the speakers so I can hear the music on the highway -Watching marketplace for deals on new wheels. These are starting to have the clearcoat peel off and are pretty abused Edited April 29 by Bradywgn71 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradywgn71 1,017 Posted April 29 Then this past weekend we went to the Summit 4x4 charity event in Chino Valley. Chris was convinced to do the RTI ramp and won the day with the highest score with a 1132. He could have had a higher score but the ramp was too short. This is even with the limit straps. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
