'02 TJ with i4 -- Mid Life Crisis

[jaysenodell]

Took four hours to drill out stripped torx and broken bolts, but finally have all the old components removed. On to reassembly tomorrow.

[jaysenodell]

Ran lines. Reassembled brakes. Twice. Bled but could not get pedal. No air in lines. Checked everything several times. Neighbor stops to chat. I'm looking at MLC and see this.



Mark, bring some matches.

When you replace one line, replace 'em all!


Tapatalking in traffic

That's pretty obvious now. Need to get more parts. And decide if I do it the hard way or just connect multiple premise sections.

[mr.mindless]

Easy way, sell rust, buy southern.

Annnnnnnd done.


From MC to lugs everything is brand new. All lines replaced with poly armor 3/16. Rear has new drums, shoes, hardware, cylinders (from Arie last year), and flex hose/T. Fronts have new hoses, calipers, rotors, pads. Thanks to the many "do overs" on making flares I have my total cost at $316. Next time It won't take me a month since
1. Anti sieze
2. Just buy it all and return what I don't use.
3. Anti sieze
4. No winter down here (I win)
5. Anti sieze


next project.... repainting the front end ... again ... thanks to dot3 and not paying attention.

Still not painted but at least she starts now.

Push button going all racer I like it.

[jaysenodell]

And she's gone. New owner already has an 8.8 to replace the d35. I think the dog is more upset than I am.





Now all the focus is on the MG engine clean up.
