Thanks

Already have a mark on the bumper, from someone's door I'm assuming. No dent or anything, just chipped the paint on the very front passenger corner of the bumper. Can't imagine what that did to the idiots door though

Default Twins - separated at birth

Finally, the search is over. Since 2001 we have been on the quest to find our Jeep's twin. They were separated at birth and we sought to reunite them.

As is usually the case with long lost siblings, they encountered each other totally by chance. And like the movie Twins, they don't exactly look identical any longer. Guess which one is Danny Devito and which one is Arnold Schwarzenegger-

Photos of the happy occasion-

The Awesome 2001 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4x4 went off road today and I have proof.

It was a little hairy at times, and although I slid sideways a little, thankfully I didn't roll it.

Flexed it out for the first time at the MSJ meeting today. I can see that trimming may be in my future...

Bought it new in 2001. I really want to find another one or two as clean as possible and mod them as well, but $

You cant fully flex with stock flares with anything over 31s. He broke the bottom corner off the drivers side front flare doing that.

I've got allot more room to flex, the flares are in the way and the back bumper corner wrap around thing is in the way. I could get ALLOT more flex with my 6.5" long arms if I trim, I just can't afford the off road flares yet.

Thanks though - I didn't think it would flex that much. And.... my wife though that was cool!!!!!!!

Just ordered the 30 tooth speedo gear from Morris 4x4 and the River Raider Hi-Lift seat mounting brackets from River Raider. I get two visits from the big brown truck of happiness coming soon!
