Post subject:  22 hour wrench-a-thon

So friday, i kicked off what i thought was going to be 3 days of just messin around with my renny and my friends 02 wrangler, got some stuff done, drank some beer, we both changed our oil/filter
i changed my pcv valve, replaced my tensioner that was making a friggin racket and replaced the belt and decided I didn't feel like foolin around to change the fuel filter on my renny lol

got about 5 hrs of sleep, got up saturday put my wheel locks back on, yanked my spare off and dismantled my quick mount of my flex-4 antenna, messed around for a bit figuring out how i was going to mount it on my roof rack since i had bits and pieces of like 4 different mounts and attachments, finally got it mounted in a permant location with a quick disconnect mount as well!

dropped my rear diff cover, cleaned it out put my new rockcrusher on with its fancy lubelocker gasket, didnt know if it was worth it but i guess we'll see, no leaks so far :P atleast theres no purple puddles under it :D

my friends mother-n-law's grand cherokee needed a oil change so we did that, it needed idler and idler tensioner pullys too so i put those on and put a new belt on it as well

talked my friend into letting me take the knot looking endcaps off his wranglers front bumper, i had been wanting to do that ever since he got it, i never did like the plastic end cap to those bumpers

by this point we had finished a case of beer and started on a second, made several trips to part stores across the street and ate way too much pizza

it was about 11 or 12 ish midnight when we decided to change the valve cover gasket on his wrangler 4.0, another 12 pack later and the brakes were done on his wifes vw bug and the valve cover was finally going back on

somehow i feel like im still leaving something out

this all started because i went to autozone to get the belt tensioner, forgot to get it after spending 130 bucks on 'stuff'

going back and getting the tensioner, and more stuff

well, i think im going to sleep till lunch now :D

good morning haha

i'll throw some pics up later, by the way, moving my antenna from the back gate to the roof cut out 99% of the signal noise i was getting while my engine was running
