Professor Gustav Tippenstein, aka Tippy.
We found him abandoned in a park, about 4 weeks old, muddy, and no other cats found in our search. So we took him in, got him all his shots, and now he's our domestic terrorist.
Well, I done goofed up.

We don't share the same rear shock mount/lca as wranglers. So these don't fit, lmfao!!
Going to see if my buddy wants them
Ugh going to have...
First oil change!!!
Also sorted out and tested my cheapo air setup. It worked, after I had popped the checkvalve chucks and ditched the dumb o-rings they put on the NPT females. Blue loctite and good to go!!!

Well, I heard it today!!
I was going a pretty good speed to hit the hump transition from the street/sidewalk to my driveway. I heard it clank twice. Once on each set of tires hitting the hump.

Whipped her around at a construction site, got some mud on her!
More importantly I verified that all my Rubicon goodies work.
First time in 4WL, wow that 4.1 is something, lol! Had both lockers going to make it through some mud here and there.
A decent lil hill climb with some ruts and mud...
Saw a big construction site on the way home today, whipped her around and got some mud on her! A lil hill climb, big ruts from excavators, some mud.
Finally confirmed all the rubicon goodies work!
Wow, it does rattle if I grip it up!
I'll keep an ear out for it, and may shim it with Kydex.
The true test will be windows down on some washboard offroad, lol. Or maybe something more jarring, idk.
Hit 1800 this morn.
I got my Pennzoil ULTRA Platinum 0w-20, and Fram Synthetic filters.
Set up to do oil change soon, then all the other fluids when I get a 2 day break from work.
