When I was 14 I thought jeeps looked cool so I got a job and started saving up for one. By the time I was 15 I bought my 88 yj with 128k completely stock. I knew absolutely nothing about cars, but I thought it looked good so I didnt care about the mechanical condition about 6 months later the clutch went out so I bought a repair manual and taught myself how to do it. after that all hell broke loose and I was constantly working on it... Long story short I have now replaced every part on my jeep besides the body and frame. I can now tell you how just about any part of a car/truck works because ive either replaced it or rebuilt it. Now that im 19 I have my jeep just about where I want it, until I go 4 link maybe 5 link and full width axles.

I grew up driving a jeep on our ranch and during my senior year of high school I built a cj-5 from the ground up with my father. Doing that brought me so much closer to my father than I could ever imagine. I bought this jeep a few years ago with the intensions of building it with my three sons. My two oldest boys Love working on the jeep with me and its been a great project for us. MY youngest (1yr) is still a little to young to be helping but there are always more mods to do and more to improve on (ie replace the LP dana 30 with a dana 44). The Best part is that we have done this entire jeep from my garage with only the tools and Welder we have at our home. My jeep is by no means DONE and plan to continue to mod it and spend lots of hours in the garage with my boys teaching them and learing from them with this jeep. Its not just a vehicle to us its a family member.

NotmYJ
92 yj
4.0, AW4 (overdrive auto out of XJ), np231, D30 front w/ yukon shafts, one off air operated OX Locker, Ford 8.8 rear, yukon shafts, mini spool, 4.88's. 37x14x15 Swamper Irok bias plys on 15x10 Mickey Thompson classic II's. SOA on factory springs, winch, bumpers, body armor, tube fenders, and a UCF Ultra High Clearance skid plate, York OBA and more that I'm probably forgetting
This jeep was born out of an rear end accident that totalled the last yj. This one was bought with the intentions of being a weekend warrior/toy. I bought it from a member here sight unseen. Title work and payment was done via fedex and I had the jeep shipped to my house. When it arrived in stock condition, I drove it 1/2 mile around the block then in the garage it went. A few weeks later this is what emerged save for a few changes like tires and wheels. All work was done by me and an occasional hand from a few friends.
