I changed out my plugs from NGK Platinums to regular Autolite Coppers. The zj seems to be getting better gas mileage so far. I also installed a set of the Blazer off road lights on my bumper. I fabbed up some mounts that mount up to the front x member under the bumper. It came out pretty clean i think. Pics to follow.
Stupid pressed in pins had become one with the brackets. Took me hours to get them cut and drilled out. would NOT come out with a torch and chisel/hammer.

I had the same problem, I could not get it to budge with torch/hammer. I did a little research online and ended up using a pitman arm puller to press it back out. It came right out! O'Reily autoparts has a program that you can borrow certian tools (ie: pitman arm puller) for 48 hours free of charge. They also had one at Harbor Freight tools and several autoparts stores for under $20.
To supply additional information on the forward camera install:
Monitor is: Rear View Mirror with 10.2inch LCD Monitor 3 Photos Display at One Time (CE25RVM401). Easy Google search. They ship from Hong Kong; good quality monitor.
Cameras are: PLCM39FRV Pyle Universal Mount Rear & Front View Car Camera -PLCM39FRV; Amazon find.
Monitor accepts a total of 4 inputs; 3 camera and a reverse cam or video IN (dvd player). Pretty cool setup. Can display single, double or triple screens. Manual monitor controls and remote control makes for easy switch from these modes and ability to change Video In from screen to screen. Hope that makes sense.
The monitor doesn't photograph easily, but here are some additional pics from this morning; added 3rd camera last night.
No actual work to Jeep one or new jeep two. The XJ will get an examination tomorrow to try and foresee any needed parts to order other than seals ans such. I did pick up two 6"x2"x4" 3/16th wall pcs of tubing. Guess those rusty rocker are doomed after all! Mooooooooahahahahaha!
Replaced my blow rear ProComp shock with Old Man Emu shocks. Changed the oil, transmission, and transfer case fluids. I also beat the engine skid off the stock belly skid (so bent I had to actually use a pry bar) so I could repaint it while painting my new belly up skid and getting ready to do the MML.
