jesus dude glad youre alright! as for the zeej, nah i figure with 2 jeeps to take care of, one needs to stay stock and reliable haha. but nah the plan now is to swap the suspension to another jeep, axles will be getting 4.56s and possibly a welded rear and aussie in the front, dropped to 5" and run 33s. it will still be getting caged though.

nice. I should of grabed that one in the JY. But I don't think they have the standard rca jacks on them right? It's straight wired into the harness. Like new montie carlos SS's. If so that's ****ty cuz I need a small amp for my components. :/

hows the progress on the xj? Any new info?

i wouldnt do it..i regretted it since the day i did it. they dont shut right, its a PITA to get them back on, pointless, easy for people to steal stuff. it was fun in high school just for goofing around and it was always funny to hear "dude why do you go doorless it looks so stupid" and then they go for a ride and love it. alot of the wheeling i do however is in wooded areas and i could for see alot of issues with tree branches wacking me haha

lol true and I bet when it rains throwin them back on isn't such a snappy process.

And as far as theft it dosent really matter for me when the doors don't lock in the first place. And where I live... If someone wants your **** there going to take it either way. So not havin a door in the way would actually be a convienence for both... He dosent have to open the door for the radio and i don't have to worry about gettin glass in my butt cheecks... Lol. :P how hard was it to disconnect the electronics for the doors? And if you/i was to take all four off would that disrupt the integrity of the jep?

nah wont affect strength much, the hatch does most of that. the electronics were easy although i cant say for the rear doors on a 4 door. for mine they were right behind the kick panel. 3 plugs on each side.

well, once again plans may have changed. i had a TPS laying around and now the jeep is running right, it was running rough before the roll and never had a chance to fix it. well, runs and idles smooth now. still has trans issues but eff it ill run it til it blows haha. we will still see what funds will allow.
