Very cool, man. I too went to inquire about pricing for a new color. One of two choices, both run about $1600 total.

--still undecided

I went to the dealership this morning and hopefully got my rear window leak fixed for the 4th and last time, see my post on rear window leaking for a full update.

Wife also said that I can order the AEM brute force intake after my next pay day. WOO-HOO!!!!!!

Well, finally after what seems like forever (due to working waaay too much), got to spend today working on my KK. Here's what I did:

1. Hung my Jeep clock in my garage that was a recent gift from my dad to encourage me to spend more time in my garage and less time working:

2. Checked torque of almost all fasteners on my JBA 2.5" lift kit previously installed. None needed tightening.
3. Checked if the OEM jack can raise high enough for me to change a wheel/tire now that I've upgraded to 30.5" OD tires. The OEM jack works fine for the back but doesn't have enough travel for the front. I'm gonna have to carry a piece of 2x6 treated lumber to have enough jack height.
4. Checked if my larger 245/75R16 MT/Rs will fit in the spare tire area. It will. I'm gonna have a 245/70R17 MT/R mounted to the 17" spare rim so I'll have an equal size off-road tire with me as my spare. Good for anytime, but also trying to get prepared for LJS in Ouray in a month.
5. Enjoyed checking out my aftermarket wheels and MT/Rs on my KK. I love the look. I'll do a detailed posting Sunday with info and some of the research and considerations I evaluated.
6. Installed locking lug nuts on my new wheels.
7. Extended all 4 breathers on the KK. I plan to post a "how-to" Sunday. I could've done this a lot faster if I knew where everything was and only made 1 trip to buy supplies. :wink:

8. Removed the lower front air dam. Again, I plan to post a quick "how-to" Sunday.
9. Bought oil & filter to do the first oil change on my KK but ran out of time today so I plan to do that Sunday.

...what a refreshing and enjoyable day working on my KK Liberty.

..now off to meet one of my aunts for wonderful Kansas City barbeque.

Tightened a couple bolts under the passenger seat - hopefully it helps my squeaky seat issue... we'll see.

is this the new paint job?... looks sick

Mike08Liberty · **Posted:** Sun Jun 14, 2009 5:21 am

wouldn't really call it a "paint job" ... a line-x job

digger, what about weight? this has got to be heavier then a regular paint job.

I would guess 50 to 100 pound at most. I can kinda fell it driving around but I don't notice it when accelerating, only when braking

What is the deal with guys from CO and how they have to tease about mods they've done to their jeep? :roll:

SkinInc69 · **Posted:** Sun Jun 14, 2009 5:47 pm

Today I washed the Jeep. And now it's raining! Figures.

geene519 · **Posted:** Sun Jun 14, 2009 7:25 pm

took the factory mud flaps off and the front air dam...

SkinInc69 · **Posted:** Sun Jun 14, 2009 7:57 pm

Digger, where's the pic's? LOL! You are going to have to change the colour of your Jeep in your registration now to black.
