1st test. Stock 3.55 gearing, open diffs.
Somewhere East of Georgetown lake.
( just installed the Yukon 4.88 gears and Spartan lockers front and rear the otherday)
Did about 8 miles of trail, took us all day.
Winch is a must, and the Smittybuilt 9.5 XRC kicked ***!
One of the best winches I have ever used.

It's kinda hard to stay incognito with something this color!
Ian, I thought you sold your XJ.
What were you driving? Next time stop by and say "hi"
I have Beer ! Got some questions about those trails near Maxville.

Starting to get her built!
RC 4.5" X-series lift. Acos system, RC control arm drop brackets,RC rear shackle relocation brackets with RC shackles.
XRC bumper and winch,Smittybilt defender roof rack.
ProComp Extreme MT, 33x12.50-15
Waiting on my Tom Woods SYE and rear driveline.
Also some JCR sliders,gas tank skid on back order , and just got the rear JCR quarter panel guards in today.
I'm sick of yanking out 21 year old rusted bolts for a lifetime!

Not from Montana. I live in AZ. But your jeep is awesome. I rarely find them the same color as mine! That thing looks great man. Maybe mine will look that good eventually...

I'm pretty sure my title says TEAL on it for the color.
My buddies call it the Rainbow warrior!
Not sure I like that handle

Anyone can build a Jeep like this. Just cash in your retirement and start ordering parts and wrenching!
