Yeah, sorry for the hijack but I'd go wheeling too. I'm in Alabama.

And nice looking rig. I think the lift made a world of difference to your rig.

c_kdna · 06-17-2009, 11:57 PM

nice rescue rig man!
i have in mind a cv-radio, and you give me a cool idea were to put the antenna.

Lol man, Im in WA State. Wish i could take a trip down south though, I'd be interested to see what the difference in our terrains are. Its pretty hilly here and about a million fir trees lol.

Yeah man, i thought it looked better up there than in the back by the tail lights where ive seen about a million other people mount them! glad i could offer some inspiration lol.

Yeah, im in love with those rims too lol, they really add a lot to the aggressive look of the truck. They look a little big but theyre actually 15"s

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days! The other day, I got some nice LED Amber strobes put on in front and rear. Ill have pics of the rear tomorrow. but heres the ones on the front. The lights have 3 LED bulbs that flash 3 times in a row, then alternate to the other light unit, then back to the first, and so on. but its just with the low quality cell phone vid so you cant really see it. Have more pics later!

Short Cell Phone Video at Night.

Man I hope that is a search and rescue thing because that is just nuts. If those were going and you were following me, I wouldn't have any idea which direction you were planning to go!

91Laredo · 06-21-2009, 01:32 AM

Hahah,
Yeah definitely a Search And Rescue thing. Just to make me more visible when I have to drive slow to search on a road, as well as making myself more visible to the person we're searching for.

mobilecherokee4 · 06-21-2009, 01:36 AM

Thanks a lot bro! Gettin' ready to take a 3-Day wheeling trip next weekend. Gonna have loooots of pics for this thread and for the trail reports section

Can't wait to test out the new lift and tires! Just have to adjust my transfer-case linkage, it keeps wanting to pop out of 4LO. Pretty sure its an easy fix though so Im pretty damn stoked lol.

91Laredo · 06-22-2009, 12:51 AM

Sorry for the slowdown in posts. Just been busy with everything but I got a biiig wheelin trip planned for thr 26-28th and theres gonna be lots of pics! But i will post pics of those rear strobes real soon, Thanks to everyone for the support and all the compliments! I wont let you down!

91Laredo · 06-23-2009, 10:03 AM

Since my mod ideas are runnin' kinda dry, I'll show you guys what the interior of the Jeep looks like to show you what I meant by "Outfitted for Search and Rescue" lol.

So the first one Is just a shot with the hatch open. Yeah Yeah, I know a lot of you on this site disagree with having a Sub. in your vehicle, but I've taken a million stock wheelin trips and nothings happened. Plus, it's damn nice to have some boomin music to get you pumped for stuff. But I have a compressed air mattress, first aid kit,emergency supply boxes, emergency lighting, a couple hoodies, and. my SAR vest.

So the next 2 are just pics of the rear seat with a view through the dog bars.

Yeah, interior is pretty much immaculate since previous owner kept seat covers on them since 91. Yeah.

So this last pic is just my dash setup. Ive got 2 radios, a standard CB as well as a Police Edition iCom F-121 Police radio. As well as an old Magellan GPS 320 mounted to the glove box (with velcro) but it still gets the job done.

Hope you enjoyed!

91Laredo · 06-24-2009, 06:07 PM

So my dad and I parked our XJs together today! Got a bunch of pics to show the comparison of a 4.5" RC Lift and 32" BFG A/Ts to my 3" RC Lift and 31" BFG A/Ts. ENJOY!

liftedjeepxj · 06-24-2009, 06:24 PM

looks pretty damn good. I do like the Cb antenna mount on it. Basically have my XJ in the same cat. as your SAR. You should get the fenders trimmed to match your dads.
