Well I didnt think it would happen so fast but it did. Bought my first Jeep. Found a deal on a '93 GC and decided to go with it. Buying it off a buddy in St George and he will haul it up for me monday. Im pretty excited about it. Little bit of a fixer uper but I couldn't argue with the price i got it for. It is the full time 4wd t-case that will be swaped out for the selectable one, which is also being brought down with the Jeep, and it is coming with a 3" lift I believe, that I will have to also install. All in all, I am pretty stoked to finally have a Jeep and cant wait to put the wrenches to it and get out in the hills!

I agree. Had hobbies that involved a wrenching in the past. Few busted knuckles and break out the urban dictionary to log the new curse words and then next thing you know, you out and about enjoying your work in the great out doors. Im freaking excited. I dont even have it yet!!!
