Ordered disconnects today

[StG58]

Ordered up my JKS quicker disconnects today off Amazon. The stock anti-sway bar links on my TJ are shot.

I was cracking up through the process because the spare change out of my Orville Redenbacher's Costco sized popcorn jug paid for it. I think I'll call my build the "spare change" build. Buy a lot of parts that way. :meparto:

Bout dang time brah! Now go get flexy!

 

[JMT]

Well, you can't say it wasn't a valid purchase with those stock sway bars shot. And with change. I guess it wasn't chump change. That's a lot of nickels and dimes and quarters bro!

I knew you'd like that... I've got a pile of parts in the garage to install. Then I'll go get flexy. Huh, I should take before and after pics.

$175 worth of change. I beat my grandkids to it! For once.

I would have figured you already had them by now!

Nah, I'm a po' boy and these things are going to help me get in trouble. "Please observe this well thought out experiment in suspension articulation." (Hey y'all, watch this! Here, hold my beer...)

Haha, maybe if you didn't have two Jeeps you wouldn't be so poor!

No kidding. Wife's talking lift and armor for her JKU. You know why? Because of all the shitty drivers between here and Wilsonville. There's a Prius driving wine lover who's in for a rude awakening. That JKU stuff isn't cheap. Especially the stuff that actually works.

I know! That's ultimately why I talked myself out of the JKU. Between the monthly payment, the problem of where to store 4 doors plus a huge top, then the cost of mods, I knew for a fact I was in over my head. All it took was sleeping on it for a night after I'd already put the deposit down and I just knew that I was making an impulse decision.

One Jeep is enough for me unless I strike gold or something. Hell, just one Jeep leaves me broke enough as it is. The thought of two is mind numbing.

At least with the Subaru as our second vehicle, I have no temptation or desire to mod it, like I would if there was another Jeep sitting in the garage.

Oh, but Mr. Chris...have you looked at the rally / off road mods for Subaru? Amazing what one of those things will do on an FSR or dirt road. Look pretty good doing it too...

Are we taking bets on whether or not you get yours delivered before mine show up (from Rokmen)? I ordered mine Feb. 20th...

I didn't realize you ordered them that long ago! Holy poor customer service Batman!! He ordered his from Amazon, so I'll take that bet.

Yeah. I'm betting against myself...

Oh I have, and they look cool. But still, the Subaru doesn't speak to me like the Jeep. Maybe if I could remove the top and doors. But let's be honest, one of the best things about owning a Jeep is the fact that the top and doors come off.

Lol, we have a giant Coke bottle full of change and we tap into it from time to time too.
Did you get the JKS 2000? I've been considering a set as well...

Yup, the JKS 2000 for 0 - 2" of lift. I'm running an inch and half of lift so they should be perfect. @bobthetj03 is going to be so proud! My little SE is growing up!

I’m in. I think it’s a shoe in I’ll win this bet.
