gbb's maintenance thread
The purpose of this thread is to document the maintenance, modifications, and adventures of my 2000 Limited w/ the factory rear locker. Its my daily driver, ski, fishing, hunting and camping rig.

I purchased this in the fall of 2017 from the original owner with 152,000 miles. She had received the rig as a college graduation present, had never taken it off road, and kept immaculate service records. It had a bit of surface rust underneath and a few dings on the body, but seeing this stack of service records was all the convincing I needed.
