Any Jeepers in here?

Meh. I wheeled mine while still making payments.

Was heading to dinner and my wife has never rode in a jeep with the top back and doors off. Let's just say she enjoyed it. Even if we don't buy this jku, I can see a wrangler in our future. I like my xj, but it isn't as attractive to just drive in summer over my car. I will say I understand why owners of wranglers take the top down or off and doors off and don't like putting them back on until it gets cooler.

I love driving my Wrangler with the doors off and the top down. But anymore, I just pull the soft top sun roof down. This way I'm still under the shade, that sun can be rough beating down on top of you.

 

[terrehautian]

Yeah, during the day I had a hat on, but it was really nice once the sun went down. The fireflies last night was pretty active and thick in the corn fields in the country. I would probably try to find a top that is only on the top (bikini or something like that?).

 

[lovemachine]

I've thought about buying a bikini top. But I love my sunrider NX top. This way I still have my soft top if it decides to rain.

We had a storm today and it blew down a tree that fell on my jeep. Well, that is the top branch about 1/2 inch thick did. LOL

Anyone planning on going to the badlands anytime soon? I'm going to wheel my stock xj and need someone to baby sit me

havent been in two years and never with something even close to stock I cared about

 

[terrehautian]

Join Naxja and ask there, someone is bound to go soon. I went stock, they pushed me and my rig to my limit but not over it.

If anyone on here is looking for tires, I have 5, 35x12.50r15 bfg KM2 tires, 4 of them have less than 1k miles, the fifth is brand new. $925 takes all 5. Tires are currently on a 04Tj

I was there last weekend. I need to do more to mine before I go again, mainly bump stops. Lol

You don't run any bump stops?

 

[dhamby]

I do, they just need some work. I'm not worried about the leafs because they are getting replaced soon.

 

[terrehautian]

Starting to price out how much the next phase of my xj will cost me. Looking about 2,000 for lift stuff (kit, new leafs, discos, sye, etc) and about 800 for tires. Once I add in what I have in bumpers, I will be putting full insurance coverage back on it.

 

[cubbetm]

Make you insure it for the actual value. They don't factor that in unless you tell them.

On a side note I'm taking my 4runner to a friends to get it finished and picking up another xj this week. It has 33s on 30/35 so I'm going to get an 8.8 and regear and lock front and rear. I already have a set of 35s ready for it

 

[Hookeye]

Mine's grocery only until I slap in a new front end.
Aint worth fixing my tired D30.

 

[cubbetm]

I think the jy has a sale soon. Go getcha one!

 

[Darral27]

Any idea on a good place for jeep parts? I got a 99 wrangler for a really good price but it needs new fenders, hood, grill, passenger door, and a soft top w/ frame (was a hard top but the fiberglass took a lot of damage and I prefer soft top anyway). The previous owner rolled it over but it was pretty light. Any "jeep junkyards" in the central Indiana area?
I am hoping to her nice and pretty before summer is over.

 

[terrehautian]

Why make it nice and pretty, lift it and make an off-road toy.
