My new Jeep

I am a little late posting pics. Just took some today.
Pics in current stock form.

Only mods so far are:
flipping visors, tinting windows and husky liners.

This weekend: superlift 4in lift, superlift adjustable track bar, bilstien shocks, 33inx12.50x15 BFG mud t/a's on black rockcrawler wheels.

Next week: mopar ipod interface, remote power door/tailgate locks, warn m8000, custom front bumper and custom rear bumper/tire carrier.

I will post updated pics as progress is made.

good looking LJ rubi. Are you doing the lift yourself? If so I might be able to help, I am in Cayce? Good luck, here is another website you might want to check out http://www.usjeeps.com/mcj.php . Let me know if you ever want to go to Gulches, My wife and I both have jeeps and try to get to gulches when possible.

m.duritz- thanks

06flex thanks for adding the pics.
I am doing the lift myself with the help of a friend. I am headed to his shop in Ga to do it. Thanks for the offer.

I don't know what gulches is?

its an ORV park in Laurens SC off 385 going towards Clemson. Great Guy running that place. Some of the best people. I am sure I will see you around. Let me know when you are ready to drill that 4.5" hole in your tub for some flush mount tail lights

Awesome rig indeed, you'll admire the extra room but it's going to be a real pain getting the soft top out from under the hard top. I had to squat my hard top while my father in law pulled the soft top out.

thanks again for the comments.

I won't ever be ready to drill the tub for lights. I like the old jeep tail lights. I have only crushed a few.

the soft top is hanging in my storage room now.

some pics after the lift.
I also replaced the chrome rings around the headlights and added some grab handles on the rollbar.

That hard top weights at least 250 to 300lbs.

Congratulations! Looks great! Now take it out and get some mud on it!

To think someone got rid of that Rubi LJ?! I wish I had bought one!
