There is a guy about 1/2 mile up the road here
He is going to give me some prices tomorrow afternoon on my front and rear bumpers / rockrails etc.
I told him it was parts from a lifted Jeep Liberty , his comment " Its not that Bad A** black one that goes up CR2 all the time is it?" I just had to say "well yes it is as a matter of fact" :lol:

I need to get a hold of Larry's boss and set him straight. :twisted:

I am going to hide out in your ditch in my ghillie suit and hi-jack the brown box delivery :pepper:

Ya, gotta work on Saturday! :evil:

Actually it will be still working from Friday! :shock:

Was told I will be going up to our Taylor, MI plant with the GM from our Elkhart plant/ corporate offices to look at, pick what our plant needs, and disconnect equipment and get it ready to truck down to our Toledo plant. :roll:

WoW!!!! Only been there a month, don't even know what some of this equipment does yet and I'm supposed to pick and choose what we get????? :shock:

Guess I'll just wing it!! :lol:

I'll be going up on Friday and spending the night at a hotel Friday night with the big boss from corporate and finish up on Saturday. Hopefully I'll still be back down here by Saturday afternoon.

Nah, he had another small issue last evening that we needed to take care of so he could continue to move forward

My XJ seemed to drop out of gear when I pulled up to a stoplight on the way home so I stopped at Tom's since his house was only 1 mile away. Checked the tranny fluid. :roll:

Tom had to run me up to NAPA to get some fluid ......... I added 3 quarts of transmission fluid when we got back :shock:

!!!!!!!! I'VE GOT A LEAK I THINK! Gonna have to start checking it every day until I figure out where it's coming from!! Was down about 1/3 - 1/2 quart already this afternoon. :banghead:

Got an estimate from a media blasting company here in cbus. Working from a picture, they estimate 1-2 hours at $60 per hour. Unfortunately, they are the only place located somewhat conveniently for me. Anyone know if this estimate sounds fair?

Well talked to the guy up the road here
his estimate was 25 -75 bucks for the rock rails depending on how long it would take. Said if they had bedliner on them maybe 100 or so,

If you guys happen to come across any Chevy parts, I'm looking for decent running '96-99 5.7L motor. First time a factory built SBC 350 has let me down, lifter is on it's way out.
I may pull it and freshen it up with all bearing, cam/lifters, but would like running motor while I do that so I'm not down long.
...and no, I still am not switching to another Jeep :goink:
