Gave it a hand wash. Finished up the second coat of SYNWAX after using Mothers Step 1 and 2. Also did the second layer of Rainx on the windsheild. So the truck is shampooed, leather cleaned and conditioned, glass sparkling. Getting lots of compliments. My wife now wants her Jeep to sparkle. Question is how is SYNWAX on darker colors? Looks good on the Blazing Yellow but does it do justice to darker colors?

today I finally changed the plugs

After having the spark plugs in my back seat I finally decided make the attempt. Was it skill or one of the lucky ones. I got all 8 spark plugs out without breaking any. I loosened all slightly and sprayed pb blaster in all plugs holes. a few minutes later I started pulling them out. They screeched on the way out and stayed tight until the last thread but they came out in one piece. Way better throttle response and quicker start.

Installed chrome turn signals and for $3 it made a huge difference in the front look. Also ordered a shorty antenna, new bigger exhaust tips and setup an appointment for re-tinting windows darker.

Washed and waxed the truck and vacuumed and cleaned the interior. I think It turned out pretty good. Felt great after getting it all done, until I had to head to work.
