old man, newer TJ

Postby TJDave » Sun Jan 13, 2008 8:52 am

Hey--Recently aquired an '04 TJ. Has 2" lift & 32's. Can't thrash on it too bad, YET, cause I have to drive it to work or flat tow it back from the campsite. My first Jeep but I have owned a couple of 85 straight axle Toyotas. Spent alot of time camping & dirtbike riding in Naches area and Evans Creek & Capital Forest on the wet side. My dirt bike days are over when I exploded my wrist a few years ago. Wife said no more dirt bikes, so I bought a Jeep! :D Looking forward to wheeling w/some folks.

Good one! :lol: No, it's an old high school nickname from the late 70's that has stuck with me since I still hang out w/some of them today!

Welcome to the forum!

Just over a year ago my '04 Wrangler was on 31's with a 2 inch lift. It's an addiction. You'll want larger and larger tires, more lift. It never ends.

It's already started, the U.P.S. guy knows my house, and where to stash parts if we are both working when he comes.
I would like to go a little higher on the lift but I think I'm stuck w/32's until I have the $$$ to change gearing.

Another welcome to the Forum. Good call on buying the Jeep vs. another Toy PU. Darn Toys aren't good for much more than hualing firewood or large dead animals back to camp... :twisted:
I don't Text (at least not very well), I eat Blackberrys, and I only Twitter after sex...

I'm glad I got the Jeep too.......although, my old Toyota took many serious beatings and would just keep on going, but the Hanford fire stopped the poor thing in it's tracks. 2 Yotas burned up w/my shop in BC. So hot the framerails were on the floor. Everything aluminum was gone! :(
