Thanks bud I'm loving the wheels! Putting on the center caps tomorrow. Had to buy some online cause they didn't come with the rims but I thought they did.

Default Little Update!

Well not much has changed on the Jeep, I've just been enjoying it! We did adjust the TPS and ever since then the high idle problem has been fixed! Also put on the center caps, it looks sweet! We got some snow up in the Sierra Nevada so of course I had to do some snow wheeling! Also, I can't say enough about the BFG KM3s , they have been amazing tires, quiet on road with great handling, they've been perfect on wet roads and on the trail in the snow! Here's some pics:

Looks great!

I'm glad you sorted out the idle issue! I know the relief of fixing a gremlin like that!

Way to find some time to enjoy it. That's what it's for - so I'm glad you have remembered that and not gotten carried away with mods without stepping back and enjoying your efforts.

Thank you man, I'm super happy that idle issue is gone! Definitely just been enjoying it, been driving it alot lately, daily driving also on the free way, had it up to 70 smooth with no issues. Not sure what's next for my Jeep yet. I did get a new radio so gonna install that next. After that maybe headliner and new headlights.

Is that Idylwild area in the snow pictures, there's some nice yellow post sites up there? I miss being stationed out in Cali. Santa Rosa/ Toro Peak has beautiful (and free yellow post sites), and at the top of Santa Rosa has a nice short section of wheeling to get to where the old burnt down cabin is at the top.

From Santa Rosa




From Toro Peak. We happened to catch the gate open and were able to go to the top. A USMC CH-53 crashed up here in the 70s and the tail section and a bunch of random parts are still scattered downhill of the landing pad towards the road coming up.

There's a route you can take from Ramona, Ca into Anza, Ca then up to Santa Rosa that is nearly all dirt with a few short 10 ish mile pavement sections. It's a great route with amazing views. It's not highly techincal, there are some hill climbs and rougher sections that may require 4low but most of it is 2wd or 4hi ordeal.

Hey man, thanks for the pictures! That's some beautiful terrain! I would love to wheel those trails, looks beautiful. Is that a crashed helicopter? Thats crazy. And those snow pictures is actually in a little, tiny town with about 64 population. Its Ponderosa, California. Just above Springville California in the Central Valley. Lots of wheeling trails up here.
