Snydmax's 98 Limited Late-to-the-Build thread

[snydmax]

Picked up our '98 Limited from a family member about 5.5 years ago with 165k on the clock.


I did the timing job right away as despite having a ton of records, was unclear whether it had been done recently. She developed the axle seal leak in the first year.

Recently, it was involved in an accident, messing up the front bumper, grille, headlights and hood. So, its getting an ARB bumper and probably some LED retrofits, custom grille? I hope to document a bit of that here for everyone's enjoyment.

I have done all of the following myself, except for the rear axle seals and alignments.


Maintenance/Projects to date (Major anyway):

- Timing Belt/wataer pump/tensioners/pulleys/
- New Denso Radiator (NAPA)
- Lower BJ's (OEM)
