The endless upgrade thread - Everyone welcome

Just a thing I've seen on some other forums. A topic where everyone just posts what they have done on their cars. Could be a fun long read   

ARGS

Nice lights!

Got my CV Boot done and while i was at it a new set of front pads. Today will see my o'rings for the rear cams so i will finally have the oil leak fixed

I know the pain once you split a CV boot. You have to take the whole unit out. I might still have one somewhere as spare I think.

The biggest pain was during the replacement the outer CV separated from the shaft ( I did the inner), i didn't realise until i was backing out the shed when i heard some solid clicking. Pulled the shaft out again and had to file between the splines to get the joint back on the shaft (that sucked big time). 

The o'rings are in and the motor degreased and no signs of leaks yet. I think it is about time i did the valve cover gaskets and spark plug tube seals as well, so they are now on the to-do list as i think they may be contributing to the leak but wont know for sure until i do a few more k's.

I think Christmas came early for me today. Out of surprise I got a new AEV Front Bumper, AEV Rear Bumper, AEV Tyre Carrier and mud flaps. My garage looks like a Toys'R'Us for grown men now.

This will all go onto the Jeep soon. :)
