Not a lot of news on the Jeep.
Ordered a Next Venture rear bumper with the hitch. Site said it would ship in 2-3 days, indicating it was in stock. After multiple emails, I finally heard back 5 weeks in that it might get cut for fab this week. So who knows when it will show up, but In definitely disappointed in the communication. If they realized the site was wrong and there was a significant change in lead time, some follow-up would?ve been appreciated. That said, I love the bumper and I?m really looking forward to getting it here and on the Jeep.
Picked up some JK turn signals for the grill and sheet metal to fill in the fenders.
Still fighting P0462. Picked up a harness plug for the fuel pump and plan on running a new temp harness from the PCM to the pump to see if I can narrow down the cause more.
Also got paint on the CJ tailgate. Looks like garbage and I have to try again.
Sold the half doors I picked up. The medium grey soft top and black diamond uppers was not something I was interested in living with. If I end up replacing the soft top I?ll revisit the idea of soft doors.
Picked up a used AEV rear bumper four $200 for my dad?s JK. Really happy with that deal, even after having to order the bolt kit from AEV
And today I picked this up? It has a few scratches and one spot that needs repair. But after selling my grey hardtop for $1600 in a matter of days this spring, this at $800 was a no brainier. Worst case I end up ?stuck? with this one, netting $800 on the deal, and swapping the grey for the much better looking black. Best case, I fix it, flip it and end up with some cash.
Otherwise it just needs a lot of maintenance. Should probably flush the cooling system, transmission fluid, fix a weeping transmission cooler line, and start cleaning up the frame and the under side of the tub.
