Yeah I would definitely try to keep it mostly jeeps. I have some names nothing has "popped" yet but it will. Ill send what I have.
Yeah I got sick of studying for these finals, so I had to drive up to Auto Zone for some ATF+4 for the KJ, since I am due for a T-Case fluid swap!
I would be down probably more for Feb or March. Gotta make sure the XJ will get here, my dad thinks the front end is a little loose, but doesn't know if its just the lift and 33s or if it need some ball joints or tie rods or anything, so thats the next step, once his shops gets a little less busy!

Yeah stock trails sound like a good bet, especially since I haven't ever actually wheeled before...

He still has it for now, but hopefully he will sell it soon, so he can get a newer one that he actually wants to keep!

I think that even with the 3"ish lift you have, with good 31s, skids, and maybe a locker, you should be very capable!
No real need to make a hardcore wheeler, but more a good DD weekend wheeler.

Thats what I am thinking!
Any more then that you run into more work for yourself, more parts, more problems, and may lose your ability for a DD.

Plus the lower center of gravity the better. Another plus to having a rear mount spare.

Yupp, plus the ability to have a full size spare, and the amount of interior space you save! Eventhough you can't really fit a tire larger then 28-29" inside anyways. I have to say I am pretty jealous of it.

Done with final, and paper! No school for a month

My dad told me today one of my christmas presents is he is renting a trailer and towing my cherokee halfway up (WV area) and I need to pay my buddy to drive his expidition with another buddies car trailer to meet him.

Now I just need to find a good Saturday or Sunday I can get off work to meet him!

Now I just have the problem of coordinating times!
So hopefully I can get that to work out soon.

Don't really know too much about pricing for vynil decals, but it seems a little high, especially for the little ones..
Any discounts for buying multiples?

Also just had a guy at my work from the Rad Air down the street buying bolts, and we started talking about cars, and asked what I drove. I told him a 06 Liberty and 99 Cherokee, and he just responds with "sorry" puzzled and not really sure how to responds, he just says "not a jeep fan at all, too many problems" so I just tell him to each there own..
Well he walks out and I see hes driving a 98ish Tauras...
