I'll probably be avoiding any serious wheeling (2wd)...but I just picked up my first Jeep, and I've got a lot of plans for my street queen.

I'm in North Tampa (USF area)...and I'm always looking for anyone willing help tear down and rebuild!

I've got a little experience with a MIG, and I'm getting ready to attempt a roof-rack...hopefully that'll jog my memory.

I'm in the brandon area too buddy and lately all the good holes have been being fenced off and closed up. I'm out of local spots, unless I want to drive an hour or two north or to Lakeland/Rancho...

Nah I didn't. Everything in and on the Jeep went with it. The kid and his buddies really really liked it though, and not only is your vinyl in the back window, but I made sure to name drop!
