One of my clients is building a big housing community down there. I can run the sites all I want with no worries. Lol.

I actually had my user name before I even knew about that show.

Parkland you say? I used to screw around that area when they were expanding the roadway on Coral Ridge Dr and Coral Springs Dr to go North of Wiles rd. That was actually my first experience with some of the Douchebaggery of Parkland PD.... well... only one of them was a d-bag. The other SIX cops that stopped were quite professional and nice.

I'd be interested to see where these sites are. There so much more that's been developed since I've been down that way (11 years).

That's cool, when I start my family I might have to do the same...
Stock suspension and all terrain tires...
Only thing different is engine mods- 60mm throttle body, injectors, brown dog motor mounts, better flow header, and wrap the injectors and Intake to prevent heat soak for daily driving

Well my little 3in lift and 31in ironmans hage impressed the hell out of me at the hump this weekend. Smallest jeep out there and i didnt get stuck not once. Everyone on 33s or 35s all got stuck in th4 same holes that my little jeep just tractors right threw. I put some small videos and a picture on instagram. My instagram is Minegun2. I did get some trail damage from slaming in to unknown large holes. i think i need some bump stops up front now. Or raise it another inch even with some pucks up front.

Ax5 was mounted different...
The new crossmember is made for any 4.0 xj/mj
Driver side all holes line up and passenger side doesn't except only 1...so gotta make 2 new Ones to mount properly
