Our Story:
To celebrate an empty nest and 25 years of marriage we decided to gift ourselves with a new 2011 JK. We both had jeeps before we married, had jeeps together, and then went Jeepless for a few years to raise kids. We wanted a Rubicon and loved the stealth markings of the COD. Our mods were meant to be dual purposed, making it capable off road but keeping it stable and comfortable on road. We can’t claim to be the most active and productive contributors to the Jeep Forum (haven’t taken the time to document mods)… but we CAN claim to passing on the love of Jeeps and Four Wheeling to the next generation; 3 of our kids now own Jeeps (1 GC, 2 Rubis)!
imowgrass4you
Mods: 2.5" Teraflex lift, spidertrax wheel spacers, front axle sleeve/gusset, 5.13 gears, JcrOffroad engine evap skid and tranny skid, JcrOffroad front bumper rock sliders, Superwinch lp8500 winch, S-Pod, Duratrac 315/70/17 tires
The last picture is before sliders but I feel it's the best picture of my jeep as a whole!
Thanks!

Story: I bought my JK after my first 'real' pay check at my first 'real' job... drove 500 miles to pick up the only Rescue Green X that I could find. At 12,000 miles I could not stand the dinky 29" tires and crappy wheels any more, so I installed my RC Budget Boost and 35" KM2's.
That was 3 years ago. Now I live in Colorado and wheel the heck out of it whenever I get a chance.
Future plans include axle upgades, new suspension, 40's and plenty of armor...
Mods (optional):
---Engine/Driveline---
- Nada
---Suspension/Tires---
-RC 2.5" BB w/shock extensions
-315/75/16 BFG KM2's
-ProComp 7089 16x10
---Armor/Protection---
-Stock Skid's
---Interior/Communications---
-Mastercraft Grab Handles
-No Carpet
-Cobra Chrome CB
---Exterior---
KC Slimlights on KC windshield mounts
---Recovery Gear---
-Recovery straps
-Tools
Another great show!
Good luck to everyone

Off the ground?
The JK of the Month Contest got "off the ground" over a year and a half ago and is now quickly approaching OUT OF THIS WORLD
Thanks for watching and participating

Had to go with imowgrass4you, because silver 2 doors are the ****. SirWinston was a close second for all the diy mods.
