OK, I stole the idea from the YJ forum but it's a great idea so let this thread be an inspiration for all of us doing mods, maintenance, or repairs to our TJ's! :D

Personally, I installed my trusty Uniden CB into my new Rubicon. :thumbsup:

Just went out and did a few snow donuts and maneuvering in the ol' neighborhood. Outside of the neighborhood the streets are pretty much completely clear :(

Got some balls towin that big a boat with a SWB TJ man. I couldn't do it.
Its a 19.5' Tahoe, weighs about 2200 lbs. Got new tires and new brakes on the Jeep and it does just fine. I wouldn't want to tow it cross country or anything, but the boat ramp I use is less than 10 minutes from my house. No problem. :cheers2:

Started making a manifold for the onboard air and a place for the ARB solenoids.
Had some ends crimped on a nice shiny hose that Fred donated to the cause, thanks again bud.



Always love seeing what your doing to the jeep!:cheers2:

Tomorrow going to check out the Rubicon that i may buy. You guys wont believe what kind of deal im getting. I guess freindship goes a long way in hooking a good friends son up! Ill post pictures tomorrow night.

Also 06 Sport did you get your 4wd low fixed yet?

I am kinda short on spare time at the moment, being a Brown Santa helper takes almost all my time for atleast another week, after that I can get busy again and finish my toy, it's so close and yet so frustrating not having enough time to finish it and take it out for some fun. So far it has ate up about 6 months of my spare time, but I am loving the result.

Put my BFG KM2's on today 32 x 11.50 on my pacer 252b streetlocks.


Adjusted my draglink to re-center my steering wheel.
Trimmed my console boot frame to so that my shifter won't hit it after the TC drop i put on with the lift the other day. (it now stays in reverse YEAH!)
Greased every zerk i could find!

Thanks! They have 4 inch backspace. I'm really happy with the end result. I really agonized over getting 33 12.50's instead of 32 11.50's and in the end, let my gearing decide (I have 3.55's with a dana 35). If I had 3.73's, i might have gone with the 33's. Now that I've got them on, I feel they are perfect since it's a DD and i mostly just trail ride, nothing extreme.
