Wrenching in Michigan
« on: December 31, 2008, 01:02:56 AM »
I got my sliders installed and am getting ready to put the seats in the XJ. The cloth seats in the front are being replaced with leather seats that match my rear leather seat. It will be nice to not have that broken seat and lean toward the door.



Sliders installed

They're not 15mm anymore. All the bolts were frozen and most of them broke off so they were all replaced with stainless hardware.

It's a combination of a couple different sizes, but I cannot disclose that kind of information.

Everything is done and I'm driving back to CT tomorrow. The seats I put in are very comfortable. Hopefully I won't fall asleep while driving.  ;D After I got the sliders installed I decided to go ahead and do some work on the rockers and clean things up a little bit. I ended up with a two tone paint scheme and I really like how it turned out.

I had to change the batteries and was too lazy to reset the time.

Last Saturday the temp got up to 55 degrees and it poured rain all day long. Snow doesn't have a chance with rain and warm temps.
