Dudleys Diary

battery for the Jeep CJ-5 today. The old Optima Red Top Battery was over four years old and it had gotten to where it would not hold a charge. The last time Frank tried to drive the Jeep it would not start and he had to jump start it with his truck. It had only been a little over a week since he drove it last so it was time to get a new battery. This time Dudley bought an Optima Yellow Top Battery. It should last longer and be a better fit since the Jeep sits in the garage idle a lot of the time. It also will be a lot better if Frank ever buys the Ramsey Winch for the Jeep that he and Dudley have been wanting. After buying the battery, Dudley went home, we took two vehicles to the store and Frank took the Jeep up and got the State Inspection done. He then came home and switched out the batteries. That took him about twenty minutes. Dudley climbed up in the Jeep and we went up to a local hardware store and Frank went in and purchased some Velcro. When we got home we used the Velcro to secure the sun visors to the top of the windshield. They had a bad habit of falling down as you were driving when you hit a bump in the road. I am glad Frank put in the new battery, the place where we bought it wanted 45.00 for the job. Dudley can buy three boxes of bullets for that.
