It did better than I expected. Drove 10 up to Windrock wheeled all weekend and drove 13 hours home. Not bad for a shade tree mechanic..
It did great and did all the same trails as the guys with TJ’s/LJ’s/YJ’s/CJ’s on 40’s.
my internal voice; " do not hear him say that about that cool JK 4 door. I am selling /trading the jku. stick to your guns . This nor any cool tubed-JK or Sam's will not change my mind. Do not go downstwairs in garage & hug or talk to the JKU. Just continue to coldly prep it for sale to get yousel a 2 seat trail Jeep....."
I have to do that constantly, heh...
Trading the JKU - Really?
Why not just tube the back half of that JKU and throw some wonton's and Fordy's on there like to kool kids did?
the rookie skills to back that up. after seeing what that new member Chase did on his build on JKO I had reality check. I am only just getting a real welder.
I have the tie-rod comin which is its next to last thing to fix from Hale
to repair , then im gonna try to , man.
I really really really like this fat-butted JKU. I do wanna just thrash it a d use it but it's a pretty nice Jeep. Be a shame to grind it's doors or b-pillar across some rock. It's gonna happen. Someone could enjoy it with thier family & get into Jeeping with it & I could use it to grab something that will hurt to do but be appropriate to do .
I came close to layin her over as we were behind all you guys headin to that boatramp trail at hale this season. I didd not like not being able to ride that myself. Not where I need to be. This Jeep just is no longer the right one for me.
*. I am gong to make an effort to get already built rig built for what I want to do.
I am gonna lose shirt and skin but hope to come-out bein able to find suitable trail Jeep to buy for whatever sad amount - compared to what we all know I've already stupidly spent - that I can get for her.
Best-case: some dude w/ built trail Jeep who has new family+ wants dual purpose jeep = would wanna trade + cash or somethin.
I don't think I'm gonna now drop 7,500- 12,000 for housings , wheels, 40s , then a cage , plus i dont have time (
im 50) nor the 2 post lift required to do it myself, no one is workin on it but me, im prety sure my
OCD would not allow me any progress to do it ,anyway, so...
wrong time to ask me that, buddy
very displeased Jeeper here.
Need drastic change.
(edit:
*I don't need back seats . I put less than 600 road miles on the 4 door last year. why am I towing a mall crawler to each ride? wrong Jeep)
