This morning I dropped off the front springs to be assembled for the lift.

Wow, guess I know what rims will be next on my Jeep! Those are the best rims I've seen on it.

I noticed my passenger parking bulb wasn't looking so good so I replaced it.
The driver side bulb wasn't as bad, but replaced it as well.
:shock:

The 15" XJ rims clear with no issues?

I'm really digging the colour of your KK! Wheels look great too!

Gageraid they look even better in person!

Bmwer524 xj wheels will not clear the LBJ nut, i have tried 15" wheels with the necessary offset to clear the LBJ nut but did not like the looks.

Nfodzy they are dark gray with pearls. Glad you like em.

Tried removing the front driveshaft...but I couldn't remove the O2 sensor that's rust welded itself into the catalytic converter, making the job impossible to do...

I just wanted the Jeep to stop vibrating...sigh...

My apologies. My phone corrected ZJ to XJ. The ZJ 15s fit? Or did they come with 16s?

Zj came with both, 15" and 16", this model is 16" and fits like a glove and also gives you 1/2" less backspace than stock 17" which looks great in lifted KKs.

Just curious, why do you need to remove the O2 sensor to take the driveshaft off? I took my driveshaft off twice in the last 3 weeks when working on my transmission seal issues. I have not had to take the O2 sensor out. I'm actually doing it again tonight... lucky me.

on another note, My sister-in-law has a 2007 Nitro that needed new O2 sensors. One was stuck so bad that we ended up dropping the entire exhaust system and transmission crossmember. The last person that put that O2 sensor in had it cross threaded so bad that we had to drill the old one out, and re-tap the hole.

Got the driveshaft out. After using the proper tool to remove the O2 sensor, it was a piece of cake haha. Got the CV head off (that boot was fubar'd...). I don't rattle like a diesel anymore! Tried to install the new CV onto the driveshaft and umm...wrong part...looking back I guess I ordered a KJ CV head not a KK haha.

Here's that pesky O2 sensor...

Here's a link for the real CV head haha:

Finally re-swapped out my fog lights for the Putco Jet Yellows. Had these installed before but due to my own stupidity of "ooo puddle!" too much water got in the lense so it killed the bulb. Now I almost have a rainbow lighted Jeep haha. Just need LED lights...

Put the "goggles" on Saturday. I've had these sitting in my garage for a year, finally sanded and painted and mounted them up.
