This Jeep has received all these upgrades while being my daily driver, I have put 12K on the clock in the last year. I wheel it hard and drive it just as hard. It has seen 4 trips to Moab so far this year, each including the 500 mile round trip there and back. It also gets wheeled locally between the big trips. I have broken more parts than I care to add up, including blowing a motor and a transmission, two front lockers, and a front ring and pinion. Each time I try to repair it better than it was before. My plans this winter include a 44/9 with a Ford Radius arm setup out front, and a disc conversion on the 9”. Enjoy!

Hey thanks! I'm not sure either, but I guess I did. I didnt think I stood a chance once you broke the rules and started posting extra pics of your rig up. I would have to say the extra close-ups of your grille probably hurt you, but thats just my opinion. . Maybe you'd have better luck on a CJ forum?

Anyway, it was a close race and I'll be happy to take the win for October. Thanks everyone who voted! Especially the 10 that voted within an hour last week.

I dont know what he's getting at, or what sis has to do with anything? The fact he is a sore loser and had to point fingers saying I mysteriously came up with ten votes in an hour is not cool. And.. i'm from UT, not CO.... btw.

For those that want to know what Cruzin said to set this whole thing off... while he has deleted it.... it still shows in the next post where I quoted him.
