Jeep = DEAD
The good news. The Jeep looks great with the recent upgrades. Here is a picture of it out on the trail Saturday.
The bad news times two.
1. When we got home I was admiring our new tires and spotted a nail sticking out. Well, it wasn't leaking so maybe it just was stuck in the tread. I grabbed the pliars and pulled it out. SSSSSSSSS!!! Crap, it was leaking. I put on the spare and we were good to go. Marcia took the tire back to Discount Tire tonight and they couldn't repair it since the hole was too close to the sidewall. The good news is Discount Tire is going to replace it for free since the tire was only 3 days old. Wow, we lucked out. Hooray Discount Tire!!!
2. So, a little bit later I went to start the Jeep up and it just clicked. The battery didn't have enough power to turn over. Well, we were going to replace it in the next week, so I guess we'll do that TODAY!!! Long story short, new battery is installed and the Jeep fires right up.
Here's a picture of under the hood just for fun. After removing the battery, I blew the dust out with the air hose, so it's a little cleaner now.
