Hey all - new to Kennewick!
My name is Ella - Just moved here. I have a 2009 soft top orange JK with a 2" lift, custom bumper, and the name Nomad across the front. I'm hard to miss.
Where do ya'll buy your Jeep gear around here? (I'm needing some supplies: Back to Black, fuel additives, spark plugs etc.) Any good trails to mess around on locally? I'd love to meet some fellow Jeepers around here.

Welcome to the site and the Tri-Cities.
There is not really a 4x4/Jeep dedicated shop in the area.
But, there is plenty of guys around here that know how to work on them!
As far as local wheeling? Juniper Dunes and Hover are the only local areas. Check out some of the recent and past run reports.
The mountains are only a couple hours away. Ahtanum, Naches, Rimrock.

Thanks for the welcome guys!
I will definitely be up for some wheeling trips - I'll keep an eye out on the board.
Considering this is a local board maybe ya'll can help me. I bought some rock sliders and they just got delivered (see pic below). I don't have the room and tools to install (plus, I'll be a total girl right now and admit things like this are a bit difficult to do on my own) If anyone has some time this week or next and wants to make some money helping me install these I'd really appreciate it!! I can pay cash, pizza, beer, whatever. Just let me know what sounds reasonable!

Welcome to the madness. Your rig will offset the "green" on Danny's new JK...

Shouldn't be a problem to get them put on....just choose your area of town and the closest wrench will likely volunteer.

Welcome Ella.. You jeep is the little sister to mine, looks like..
You can find your supplies, such as the back to black and such at O'Reilly's or autozone. Ace Hardware has 303 if you use that on your softtop..
I would be more than happy to help you put those rock sliders on. Those look like ACE sliders..
Here is a pic of mine.. Just got back from Ahtanum over the weekend.

I think we intimidated her. Not really sure. Maybe she moved on from the TriCities already.
