Michigan Jeeper

[JeeperJoe]

Hi Everyone,

New member here that has already found answers to the exact questions I joined this site for. I'm from lower SE Michigan with a 2003 Jeep Wrangler Sport. I currently have no upgrades as of yet, but like all Jeepers, I have big plans.

See you out there,
JeeperJoe

Jeeperjoe, go trail deep into the woods and you'll have fresh mind to think for more mods

Thanks Bobthetj,

Definitely nice rig you have going there. I aspire to one day bring mine up to a respectable level as yours. The rust has begun it's deadly attack from 15 years of Michigan winters and salty roads. As soon as sping hits, I will be stripping the interior out to blast the inner and outer tub to apply a spray liner. I am 2nd owner of this gem with bone stock everything so far. Let the games begin!

I have a lot of respect, and sympathy for you rust belt jeepers. I don't even know what rust is, thankfully.

Couldn't pay me enough to even try. I have a hard enough time fixing shit on my jeep as it is. Throw rust in the mix and I'd just set it on fire and roast marsh mellows. Lol!

Gosh, someday I hope to be able to work on an old jeep, and not need the "firewrench"

Welcome to the forum. I spent the first 24 years of my life in Michigan (23 years in the UP and 1 year in Farmington). I don't miss the Michigan snow and road salt at all.

I used to live in the U.P. as well, about 5 miles from Pictured Rocks. I currently live about 20 miles from Farmington lol.

I was born and raised in Houghton. A good college friend of mine is from Munising. I worked in Walled Lake when I live in Farmington (for MDOT).

 

[JeeperJoe]

Munising is the exact spot I was referring to. Small World it is.

Yes it is. Given your age, if you grew up there then you might know the family.

Small word is right... my wife was born in the Houghton area... painesdale, actually
