Jeep Project 4

Finally got the Jeep back with the new 3.5 in lift, 33 in tires, wheeles and some other misc suspension components. The ride is actually a bit better then stock now that I got the right shocks (long story there for another day).

Where in the world is....

Nuvi1

Arguably I should have been one of the firsts to get one but I think I am one of the last. It’s funny how things go in waves at work in the last couple of weeks 4 coworkers have bought this same unit based on another already having one. I’m pretty sure two more are ordering one within the next couple days. I highly recommend this model. The feature / price point is perfect. Retails for 499.00 but with a discount code I have and free shipping from PCrush.com we got em for ~335.00. If anyone wants the code just shoot me an email, gets you 20.00 off. I also love the form factor and weight. This thing does everything I was looking for in a GPS unit and more. I've settled on Karen the Australian for my navigation voice. We have already developed quite a bond. Garmin Nuvi 350.

Jeep Projects 2 and 3

Project 1

Img_2365_2

Well not so much a modification or an upgrade as a repair. See - link to Katie's site.

Stupid thing is they had mechanics on standby fixing jeeps for cost of parts all weekend at Camp Jeep and the guy was just about to put a new sway bar link ($50) on when it dawned on me I had a set of after market quick disconnect ones at home in the garage. I told the guy thanks but no thanks and drove it home taking turns carefully. When I got home I realized what hadn't dawned on me was the fact that th pair I had in the garage were for lifted Jeeps (I was thinking ahead wen I ordered them) and wouldn't fit without the lift. Long story short I just paid $80 for the part at the dealership and installed it myself. on the up side I go some new tools out of the deal: Torque wrench, 1/2 t 3/8 socket reducer, T-60 socket, some lock tight and another new socket that I forgot the size of (~$70). Yep, I spent $150 and about an hour of time to save $50.

Project 2

Since I'm not ready to buy the new front bumper yet I decided to make the stock one look a little tougher. Got the idea from some fellow Camp Jeepers.
