For price/mileage you cannot beat these.

Yes and yes. I just went snow bashing with about 20 other rigs a couple weeks ago and while several people were having trouble getting up a particularly snowy hill on much larger and "meatier" tires, my TJ on 33" BFG ATs walked right up it. I like the tires but at the same time almost wish they were a little beefier looking.

It was either build a bed or spend more money on Christmas presents. Shop Class Skills FTW!!

Went through my 1st car wash with her as it was one of those "Laser" things and was very impressed with the outcome. She was filthy and came out pretty clean and I only got a couple drops in the soft top as it was rinsing off.
Bought some Rustoleum Flat Black to hit my skid plate and rust that resurfaced from the Badlands trip.
Been eyeing the Rokmen Tummy Tucks! Going to wait for Imped's advice and make a list with him this weekend! Can't Wait! A Short & Sweet Build!

I have no idea where to mount the tuner and the Sony connect kit, or the antenna to get good reception. The top of the roll bar was my first choice. I heard that the satellite signal can easily penetrate through a soft top, but what about a hard top?? Has anyone else installed sat radio themselves? If so, where did you put your antenna?

I went through the grommet in the firewall and then up by the hinges on the hood and put it on the cowl. Haven't had any reception problems.

I had a guy make the front and rear bumpers for me in Ohio, and them shipped them to me, only cost me $600 for front and rear, and the rear is a swing out!

He doesn't make them anymore thou, he did good work.

found a D30 with 4.10's to complete my re-gear (axle swap)

MisterO · 12-17-2009, 05:26 PM

Installed 2in hitch receiver and 2 in ball , along with the hopkins trailer wiring harness..
All went rather smoothly, except it was so cold out..

ajamison · 12-17-2009, 05:31 PM

installed my engine block heater today... i will probably do a write up for it or just add some info about it to my build thread

**Boundless** · 12-17-2009, 05:57 PM

Recieved my EBC Yellow Stuff front pads today, but I can't install them because it's snowing outside... not really, it's only raining but I always wanted to say that.

oh and yes I plan on replacing both left and right pads

Watch out. I had to get refund on my greenstuff after it started cutting groves on my rotors. Good luck.

wow that's not good, any reason for that happening? Need the Jeep pros to chime in.

After reading lots of threads about brake up grades I thought the way to go was EBC yellow stuff 2nd to the Vanco set up, I hope I didn't miss something.
