Okay guys here is my new build thread, the other one was full of a bunch of talk so this way ill get everything done on page one. So ENJOY!!!!!
If you got any questions, comments, or sugestions just let me know.

Okay so i first got a jeep in feb 08'. It was an 85cj-7. It was sitting outside for over 10 years, so it had a lot of rust n i sold it.

Then i found a perfect jeep, it was an 89 wrangler(yj) it has an I6 n a ba 5/10 5 spd.I offered 2000 for the jeep and i got it. : ) I was so excited, it came with a hard top, soft top, and a bikini top, Also had full hard doors and soft doors.

i then put the hardtop on for the winter so i didnt get cold.

I found a good deal on 2 hella driving lights from amazon. They were only 40 bucks so i got em.


Then it started snowing so i went out and had a lot of fun in the snow: )

It finally got warm enough to take the doors off, and sometime in between there i bought MossyOak seat cover and a Radio Shack CB



i have also always wanted a windsheild decal that says "its a jeep thing You wouldnt understand" so....

i then took off the hard top off and put on the soft top and full soft doors.

Then i took the top and doors off, : ) and got it a little muddy

i also took the tire carrier off

i then got some graduation money, so i did a lot of research and got the Rough Country 4in lift.
