spotted an XJ thru the fence at the local pick a part the other day...so this morning I looked over the Jimmy to see what needed to fit where prior to my parts hunt. I looked over at the glovebox latch that had dismantled itself about 6 months ago and figured I could get that latch also. So I did a quick search to see how to take it apart cause I had just never got around to messing with it. Anyways...took all of 15 minutes to fix the one I had and it works like new....small victory, for sure, but since I am just now getting around a little after having leg surgery, I'll take what I can get.

The XJ had already been stripped of its steering shaft, so I just waddled around for an hour or so looking for anything else I could possibly need. Really slim pickings and not much early stuff at all. Oh well....at least I'm back able to get out and walk around some.
 
good to get out again

even better fix, dealing with that 6 months and have it only take 15 minutes to fix, PITA trucks I tell ya
