Ordered tires today: It's going to be a daily driver so

BFG All Terrain KO2 33x12.5x15

Had these on my wife's TJ back in the day and they were awesome. Should be on tomorrow.

Also replaced the brake light switch. Again.

After watching the eclipse here in the Path of Totality, and ordering tires I

*set an appointment to have the entire floor sandblasted

*Finally put bushings washers and bolts on 2 body mounts that were forgotten

*Replaced brake light switch and ran new wires and connectors

*Removed the gauge cluster

*Bagged, zip-tied, and duct taped any wires that could possibly get sand in them when blasted.

*Removed the dimmer switch

*Removed the Parking brake bracket thingy

*Removed the choke cable (electric choke on the carb)

*Removed all the insulation (original factory I believe) from the firewall and cowl

I finally found original black paint. VIN says it was originally black, but I've found Ginger, Brown and the maroon that's on it. The shiny black was behind the insulation that was behind the heater.

Hopefully tires will go on tomorrow. Then blasting on Thursday.
