My brother in law embodies everything you said, fortunately he’s lazy so his attempts are minimal. He mounted a tire on his Dodge recently, my guess he didn’t have straight, just hammered it down and it fell completely off few days later. He drove about two blocks dragging everything on the ground.
WOW!
And you sold him your Jeep? 😳😂

So I sold my JT to brother in law, like two months ago maybe, today I get a call…….and dear god I knew it was coming……they are both on speaker, both are giddy about…..wait for it…..an angry grill they just ordered. Of course my brother in law is about as mechanically inclined as a hairless cat so I’m supposed to help. After some quick deliberation I said “I can’t do it man, they don’t make a shower hot enough to wash that shit off, on your own with that one, Gods speed to ya.”
A “future son-in-law” keeps telling me I need to add an angry grill. I’m not sure if he’s teasing or not but it doesn’t sound like it.
I totally ignore his suggestion and may just disown him if he keeps it up.
Or at least threaten it to make my point. Lol.

Sad news. We will pray for his soul and your quick recovery. A grief counsellor is recommended.

Dude. He's talking about installing an angry grille. That sort of behavior should be stifled as early as possible for the benefit of all mankind.
Exactly. It isn't just the emotional damage that the Jeep suffers, it's also the suffering of every person unfortunate enough to see it.

Next is a set of 10 mm sockets.

I bought this as a joke a while back.

Just 2 weeks ago I had to crack it open because yes, I couldn't find the damned 3/8 drive 10mm.

<shaking head>
My brother-n-law and sister-in-law are a match made in heaven……God love them both. He’s a painter and always has a ‘work van’.
They asked us to ‘take a look at it’…….. Sure…….
He parks it on the street (at least he had the decency to do that). We open the hood and the entire engine bay is covered in oil and a few little sprays of oil shooting in the air….. Oh dear god…. WTF?
Come to find out….. the high pressure line on his steering pump was like having a shower head in your engine bay. 😳 He said… ”Yea, every-time I turn, it leaves a big oil spot” …OOoooooo I bet it does!!!
He’d been carrying oil with him and adding oil to the resevoir for - god only knows - how long or how often. OH…and he lost the cap to the resevoir. The resevoir was loosely covered with aluminum foil. 😳

Needless to say…we didn’t want to get involved with that fix…. told him to take it to a garage ASAP. I think this was the same work van that needed an entire engine replacement not long after that. 🤦‍♀️
