I tried that too! No luck here either and apparently neither does drinking a beer and staring at it,..

This week still assembling the last bits on the 93 2 DR, and the big Jeep got a new to it header panel and fender as I adjusted the old parts with a culvert at HRC,... Next Radius arm replacement, more tube protection,....

Uggggh maybe I will try the Beer technique again,.. maybe I was doing it wrong

Post by: dac on May 28, 2010, 10:02:27 AM: I put the kids car seat back in it (as designed without towel) and took my son to Home Depot. Extremely exciting run, nothing broke and it still sounds as healthy as the last time I had it out. Even was able to give the wipers a test to make sure they still worked.

Post by: YoungFluff03TJ on May 28, 2010, 11:42:40 AM: Discovered a bent axle....after my wheel flew off while driving which destroyed my brand new rim (less then 90 km on it)...so i put an axle into it and purchased another rim. then i also stared at my jeep (like this >:() and had a beer. also cleaned a lil bit of mud from the inside. the rain/snow took care of the outside and deposited it on my driveway, which ran into the street and is now in front of the neighbors driveway. mua ha ha

Post by: Raspberry on May 28, 2010, 10:15:07 PM: I sank mine into a 3-foot mudhole. Killed my high-amp alternator, to which I have lost the warranty card. Engine also sounds sick... there's mud everywhere outside and inside the jeep, who knows what's up with the engine... maybe more mud? ha, wouldn't put it past me :)
