Got a deal on Legendary seat covers front/rear from a guy on Moparts. I installed the rears today and waiting on the seat buns for the front.

Finally got all the brackets in place for supporting my front bucket seats . . .

Driver side . . . the seats are out of a 2014 Dodge Challenger - Driver side has all kinds of motorized adjustments . . .

And the passenger side ( got to go back and install threaded inserts to allow the seats to bolt to the floor )

What are you using for wiring and switches? Our SRT/8 Jeep seats need adjusting. This is an upcoming issue.

Mmissile . . . These seats are complete with all the buttons on the side of the seat to do the adjustments - just add 12 volts to the seat and hit the right buttons . . .
( now to just figure out what is the correct button to do what I want it to do . . . Lumbar support . . . etc )

I have removed the air bags, and a bunch of the non-needed electrical stuff that was also built into the seats . . .

Okay. Mine had all the switches in the door. I don't have the wiring or switches. Came out of a 2015 wrecked SRT/8 Jeep.

Started assembling my wilwood rear brakes until my damn safety wire pliers broke.

 

[5.7 hemi]

Safety wire is overrated, lol!!

Lol, it's probably unnecessary since I used loctite 271 but I've never done it before so I wanted to try it out, not sure if pliers broke because of user or cheap harbor freight tool... either way looks like I'm going to harbor freight this weekend

Replaced the right front hub in the Jeep Commander. Who would have thought that a steel hub in an aluminum knuckle would be so hard to get out after only 10 years.

Well I'm going the cheaper route. I took it to a local macco shop. They have done lots of nice hot rods in the area. It's gonna run 1500 bucks, hopefully it turns out good. Lol

Push another layer of snow off the car, again. Hopefully was the last time and warm weather comes around.
