Default Greetings from a Texan stationed in WA and deployed to Qatar...

So after that mouthful, what's up all... Name's Matt, should hope that was obvious, heh.
Migrated here from some of the other popular Jeep and XJ forums, I'm sure a lot of you are familiars.
For those that aren't, I roll a '94 greenishbluey 4dr XJ, 6-cyl 5spd, blah blah... full list of goodies is in my signature. Doing a tour with the Navy currently, been deployed to Qatar for a few months, got a couple left. Got a grip of parts awaiting my return, Rubicon Express LA upgrade, AJ SuperRails, Treks unibody stiffeners, RE Gen2 disco's, and some 24lb injectors.
Been driving Jeeps since before I was legally allowed to (not a huge feat since I'm 24), have always loved 'em. Been through three XJ's and one ZJ in the last 5 years, I tend to show my love for my Jeep at the time through abus-excuse me, expedited upgrading. Enjoy anything with an engine and wheels really.
Also working on a '67 Volksrod (VW Bug gone ratrod type of thing...), and a cafe-racer setup on an '82 KZ450. No real progress on the Bug or 'bike as the t-case and rear axle blew up trying to go through Arby's drive-thru a few months ago (upgraded with HD internals plus a SYE and rear 'shaft), then two days before deployment the boulder I was driving down decided it didn't like where I was and shifted forwards (didn't do it for the frickin' fullsize K5 or Scout, just my light-*** XJ..) and threw the front end into a stump - hence the upgrades waiting suspension-wise at home right now. Love to ride motorcycles as well, mainly streetbike through the curves. Got an '05 R6 Raven with the usual K&N, PCIII, Two-Bro slip-on, blacked-out screen, etc... also a 1/4 turn throttle and +6 rear (love to zip out of corners).
That's pretty much it for now, can't really think of anything else to share at the moment, heh...
Couple pictarz of the toys:::
