    Yessir, I realize. I was just trying to keep the suggestion on the same thread of the general convo.

    Have to agree it would be a last ditch effort- and gluing the clips into the knobs is brilliant. We had a similar issue on the wife's ZJ, will do the same.

    Just make sure whatever glue you use to glue the clips into the knobs is fully dry before putting the knobs back on..... or you'll be screwed!

    I was worried about that. Although super glue dries fast, I glued them at night & put them back on in the morning. :rofl:

    Serviced the transmission this morning. Kind of ironic with the talk of transmissions today.

    Trail Gear bumper is complete! No don’t tell me to put a winch or lights right now. Time for new rear axle seals and CVs and/or cv boot replacement. Oh and a stereo replacement :oops:

    Wired my KC LED Daylighters with a the 97-2002 Camry foglight switch. I ended up drilling a hole in the firewall and using a grommet. I really didn't feel like trying to make it fit through the OEM wire harness grommet is seemed way too tight.

    Looks great man! Just ordered myself an addicted off-road tube bumper the other day. Can't wait for it to get here.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it the shock that gives you that extension the leaf springs help with load.

    I installed a new double din Pioneer head unit, switched from a Cobra CB Radio to the Uniden in the ash tray location, and got my 12" sub behind my seat for a little bit of bass






    Then of course I gave her a vacuum and wipe down

    Even with the black eye and crooked smile she’s a sight for sore eyes.

    If you had the choice to take home either one of these ol gals what would you choose?

    1.
    A pretty ol gal that’s a little younger, less used and nice as can be but not quite ready to go to home.

    2.
    A less pretty, older gal, that’s been used hard and might not be 100% safe, but will give anything a try, but might break a hip though.
