That was us, I would've stopped but there were a lot of people following me and I didn't want to hold them up. I saw the bumper and recognized it. We're going to AOP next month if you want to join.

Life has been winding up lately and the amount of mods I get done to the Jeep are winding down.
I got done with my Phase 3 plans a while back and the results have been great.
As a result I'm planning to spend the next year or two with the Jeep more on the trails than under the knife.
So as most people in this Forum have done, look for updates on the Jeep through Facebook.

It's been a good run so far, 11yrs of building and wheeling.

Date of Purchase APR 2007:


PHASE 3: COMPLETE MAR 2018

Are you thinking about getting the F250 shock towers for the back?
Looking forward to the knife work

I like how yours came out for sure.

Just depends on what kind of shape the Jeep is in after the next two years.
My goal is for the jeep to spend more time on the trail than under the knife in that time.

Couple trips from the last three months

URE in December
Hurricane Creek Trail in January
The Flats Offroad Park in January
- Broke a Front Axle Shaft in the Morning then after throwing in the spare I broke it in the afternoon.

Installed some New Chromos at the end of January

Just got back from Windrock in TN.
Hit a lot of trails and at the end we decided to hit trail 45.
No one made it to the top without winching, so I gave it all:

Where is that hurricane creek trail? Also, believe it or not a Cherokee in the club I wheel with bounced up stair steps on 35s.

I’m sure it can be done and I think the key word here is “bounced”

Hurricane Creek is in NC around Harmond Den

I'm hoping to have mine together by the middle of August, then I'm going to do a shake down run at gulches. Then we have club rides at gulches in September, URE in October, either AOP or Morris mountain for the November trip and Harlan for the December trip. I ran across you last fall when we had a trip to URE. It would be sweet to see you out on the trails again and actually wheel a bit together. I know a few people who went to the ride up in harlan. A black Cherokee with half doors tons and 40s and a red Cherokee that broke
