See now this is a bad scenario lol. What is your future with the zj. If you're gonna stick with it for a long while, i saw work with that. No reason to get another vehicle at your age plus I've seen what people can do with ZJs. Very impressive

I've grown to really love it, besides it being a whale. I like it more than xj's.

I don't see myself getting rid of it unless I smash it into a tree.

Was kinda of thinking getting a lot out of the way now and then going higher with it after school.

Not sure if I want to part with my hoard of xj parts either.

I agree about spare parts. I have stuff that i need to sell but have that iffy feeling lol.

If you're gonna keep the zj then commit to it. Build it up. Look at any weaknesses it has and improve them

True, very true.

My end goal would be 8.8 in the back and hp 30 upfront. Full adj short arms, at around 4.5“ with 33s-35s.

Or leave it and start saving up for a 99 transam.

I work fulltime (40-50 hours a week) and am in school "part time" hours wise, but it is still a full plate for me. I work everyday 8-4 and then have classes until about 8:30 on Mondays and Wednesdays with a good bit of homework to do. Keeps me solidly busy until about Thursday at 11PM or Friday night. How the hell am I supposed to build a Jeep and do all that??

And I'm single, so that probably helps some, but still.

Don't. You'll end up going to college over 5 years and end up with an AA.

I work 30 hours a week and go to class Tuesdays and Thursdays all day long. But I'm in a serious relationship...and she doesn't drive.

I'm already behind by about 9 credits. Ill have to go for 4.5 years already for my BA. That means I have 2.5 more years of school. I can't live this life for much longer. If I didn't have to work during the semesters it wouldn't be so bad.

While home I work 90 hours per pay period. But then I'm a school and have no money or time.
