I’d like to see if anyone would like to get together somewhere in middle Tennessee for a group ride in the near future? I can pretty much go anywhere within a few hours so location isn’t extremely important to me. I just know it’s hard for most people to just get out on the weekends without some...

🤣

Mine is a 20’ and has plenty of room for anything else I NEED to haul. If I had a smaller truck, I might want an aluminum trailer but my 3500 has no problem pulling this or any other trailer. So the price of an aluminum trailer wasn’t justifiable for me. My last trailer had the fold down ramps...

Correct.

I seem to remember someone doing this before (10 years ago) without issue but it was only 1-1.5” lower so maybe not as drastic. The fact that this Jeep has an 8.8 rear leads me to believe the old control arm brackets were cut off so going back to stock would probably not make economic sense. It...

That price seems as bit high but if it is rust free, go for it and build it how you want!

Simple? No. Cheap? No. But plenty of people have done LS swaps In Jeeps so there are tons of resources for those swaps. If you have a free low mileage 4.7 available, It would be cool.

Factory rear lights? Did you change the factory flasher relay with one for LEDs?

OK, so if you’ve changed the front and not the rear, does that mean you Have a different gear ration in the front now?

Congrats!

You should have no problem towing that down the road with your TJ. Might not be a trail trailer but you can give it a shot and upgrade as needed. I’m going to get another LJ for my son and hopefully build an overland trailer to pull with it. Mine isn’t really built for long road trips so it...

I think this thread brings up the extremely important point of proper troubleshooting. I once had a Toyota pickup with a 22RE and about a year after having the engine rebuilt, it had a huge hiccup on the interstate and wouldn’t run properly. It was like it was only running on 3 cylinders (it...

Welcome to the forum. With 5 years of ownership, I’m sure you have a lot of knowledge to share! And it looks as though you aren’t afraid to drive your Jeep.

$4500?! That sounds like a great deal! I like your plan of waiting to upgrade based on what limits you find after you use it for a while. You MIGHT save some money that way.

That looks really clean for a 99!
