Thanks , they are my second herd of children! A little yard crawling to test everything out . It is out of the garage and only lacking a rear bed roll bar , side boards and maybe some wheel vintique wheels I have in storage to be complete. This is what it looked like when we bought it in November of 2018. And the 14 bolt is under the rear of the Brute! The 60 is almost ready to go , just hung up waiting on the knuckles to come back from the machine shop. |

I definitely would like to go to MOAB but that will probably be a couple of years, im hoping spring 2022. I am still in the build phase so i plan on taking this summer to dial things in and see what the next steps will be.
I appreciate the info and you have some great builds! |

For Eastern wheeling I probably spend more time on the Outer Banks than anywhere else as that is where I grew up and I love going back home. Oak Ridge is pretty good , but its only open a few times a year to limited paid participation. Windrock will probably be my next run , or some of the stuff in West Virginia once we are cleared to be free again. I appreciate the info and you have some great builds! |

Always love seeing your collection. Jeff Quote:

Where in NC do you wheel or do you go to VA more often? I know about Uwharrie but i want to see what else is out there. Im nearing the end of my YJ build, well the current rendition of it, and i want to have a trips lines up for when COVID-19 mess passes.

Quarantine time has been productive here on the hill. I found a heck of a deal on Baja MTZ's @$124 each , so off came the Razors which were too tall for my Jeep. The Baja's fit perfectly and are super quiet. They did take a lot of weight to balance which may hurt me down the road as they wear , but they are buttery smooth on the highway. No offroad testing as of yet , but I may venture over to the farm to try them out as most everything is closed. Washed , polished and waxed. Been driving it a lot with the weather so nice. Got a dog , and she is learning the ropes to be a great Jeep / Shop dog. Replaced the tired factory springs with some 1" H&R springs. Everything came apart so easy , I love a Southern Jeep! The Cherokee is almost done! So many projects wrapping up is an odd thing for me. Sold Ted the LJ. Replaced the alternator , figured out the wiring bugs and now I need a idle air control! I have been putting some miles on the Brute and it just keeps getting better. Next up is axles. Speaking of axles... And I think that brings everything up to date other than the Yeti steering on my wifes JKUR. |

All joking aside, any LJs you want to sell?! I’m getting back into one as a third vehicle. I caught the bug by jumping back into this thread a few months ago and now I’ve got a virus I can’t get rid of!

(Just a little Hemi humor there -  )New tires are here for my green LJ. They are 35x12.5 r15 MTZ's and they are slightly short of 35 which is what I need vs the super tall razors I had. Also have the red LJ ready for a new home , just have to install a soft top as the hard top is staying here. |
