    Waiting on my 99+ intake manifold to get here from UPS. Once it arrives, going to powder coat it. Did my favorite mod so far, 98 ZJ seats. Wow those suckers are comfy! Only problem is they are power seats and mine were manual. I put them on my seat tracks, but have no way to recline them. Guess I'll have to look into wiring in the recline button. Few more odds and ends and it's wheeling time! Our club has a big ride planned next weekend at the Ivy Branch Trail of Hatfield and McCoy trails. Hopefully I make it!

    On the way to work yesterday, I started smelling something burning. Pulled over and found this

    Pinion seal and bearing are toast. Hopefully it didn't mess anything else up, but with my luck I'll need a whole new axle.

    Got the new bearing and seal installed on the yoke. No more leaks. I am having a strange issue with my front lockright though. It is binding when turning left even in 2wd. Lots of feedback through the steering wheel. Never did this until recently. Did the "spin test" and the driver side is not unlocking at at all. Put new springs and pins in and still no go. I have a new hardened cross pin to try next. Any ideas?
