Get new rotor(s) too since that one is pretty well guaranteed to be warped. Pads too probably as it usually fawks the glue holding them together when they get that hot. Wheel bearing probably won't be too far behind now that its been cooked.

Welp, this was going to be my new tow rig for the XJ until the 6.2 puked out the rear main seal and spun a bearing as soon as i got back into NW... so the XJ gets pushed back even farther on the list of things to fix lol. I have too many broken things!

Derp! havent posted on here for a while. (you can notice my first dent behind the door! ... bounced off a tree.) Havent been driving the jeep cause i havent had anyone to go out wheeling with.. and well we all know wheeling alone makes for some not so fun times. I'm still also looking for lower gears!!! 3:07s are killing the poor jeep lol. anyone with 3:73s or even 4:10s that wanna sell them let me know! I'll even travel to halifax i'm that depserate lol, Dana 30 front and C8.25 rear. also i'll post up some pics of the pile of goodies i got for the K30... That parts list is!: Summit 750cfm double pumper carb Summit 1103 Off-road Truck cam RAM Truck clutch kit Zoom flywheel 3" headers Summit timing Gears Full felpro gasket kit [may as well do it now while its out of the truck] MSD 60K volt distributor Bosh platinum spark plugs 8mm MSD plug wires [Red to for that extra hundred horse power] New starter Edelbrock black intake cleaner with filter and some other doo-dads i forget. All for a little under $1,000 hence why i love summit, amigos wanted $700 for a carb!! D: Annd the jeep got dust, but i will be doing some maintenance to it soon because i want it ready for jeep jam... I missed it last year and i dont plan on missing it this year!

Poor old jeep isnt looking too happy these days Started to take the wheel bearings off since they were shot, then a bunch of stuff happened and i could never get back around to, now I'm just waiting for funds to build back up to buy the parts i need. But i did throw a battery in it the other day after it sitting since december 30th Touched the key and away it went. But its gunna stay sitting for a while longer until i get this mess of a chevy up and running because i need it for work.

Jeeps finally back on its feet with both new wheel bearings, two new calipers, and a awsome new snorkel! This is how it goes right? No... that cant be right... This is how it goes! And a random shot of the rear. No more Xcavators as they were tearing the front end out of the jeep and making it super low on power, so i have some weak 31"s on it for now until i can find a tire thats a happy medium between agressive and road friendly. Annd its that time of year again...
