    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Than thanks! Appreciate it. Quick question for anyone knowledgeable, going through the site I found some stuff that suggest maybe a u joint but... just wondering if anyone has any ideas of what a weird crackling sound under my Jeep when I first take off or turn etc. could be? Is it just that...

    Ha ha yeah I found a few threads and noticed it’s a whole thing. Forgive me I didn’t know. to be honest I’m still no father ahead when it comes to lighting lol almost too much info out there and a lot of differing opinions

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Yeah they look great. Your Jeep is goals. I wanted to grab a pair for better ground clearance and protection. And let’s be honest the overall look...but I keep coming back to keeping this Jeep stock for some reason. But that’s no fun is it?

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Well my headlights are so dim they won’t be blinded by those bad boys that’s for sure. Anybody have any good recommendations for headlights? Not looking to break the bank I can live with these but if there is a budget option?

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    hey thanks!! yeah honestly I wasn’t sure what to make of the chrome grill when I bought it but now driving around town the past 2 weeks and seeing literally hundreds of other Jeeps and none with a chrome grill, I’m starting to appreciate mine. It’s different ( at least here anyway) and it still...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    oh wow, yeah. That lift/tire combo looks great. Beautiful Jeep you have. I was looking at those side steps. What do you think of them? I really liked them on the site and now seeing them on yours I can see what they’d look like on mine first hand. Any issues or complaints? I’m just not sure I...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Hey, sounds great. Is there somewhere on the site that has a bunch of Jeeps with that setup? Or even just multiple different looks? I just love looking at Jeeps. Lol Cheers

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    thanks!! I’m really starting to love the look of this baby. yeah my main issue so far is not having the space or garage to store it over the winter. If I can get that sorted I think the winter beater option is my #1 choice. Just to save the frame and get more years out of this Jeep. Thanks...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Btw I just wanted to thank you for this. I finally just threw my ViN number in and got my build sheet. Super helpful man, appreciate it. Deep Beryl Green Pearl is the exact colour, which is good to know. Also learned it came with 30’s from factory. A 19 gallon tank which is great to know...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Oh yeah? No problems, eh? That’s great news. Thanks any problems with salt on the frame in them snowy western NY winters? Do you get it under coated every year? Another question? Anyone ever see a 2 inch lift with 30” tires? Look ridiculous or no? I want to raise it a bit, not too crazy but I...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    that’s great, thanks for the reply. I totally agree, and being Canadian the top is more like 3k and that’s money I’d like to put into the Jeep in other areas. I was reluctantly thinking I had to buy a hard top and dreading telling the wife I have to add an extra 3k into the mix. But now I’m...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Ha ha totally fair, I think it’s more the fact I don’t feel “worthy” yet to be calling it a Jeep. It’s like I want to ease my way into the club ;)

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Thanks!! Appreciate it. I feel lucky to have found it. I almost bought a 2002 TJ the day I found and bought this one because I didn’t think I’d ever find an LJ. They’re rare here. So I gave up and was on my way to the bank to get money for the ‘02 And I got a call back on this one to come check...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    One question I definitely have is to undercoat this bad boy first thing? Wait till closer to winter? Should I rust proof the car? Would it even help a 15 year old car? I believe this Jeep spent its winters down south pulled behind an RV. So this will be it’s first winter. I don’t want to be...

    Hi new Jeep owner here long time admirer who finally asked the girl to dance

    Hi everyone, okay, so this site is super overwhelming. I’m doing my best to try and navigate it. I guess what I’d like to ask is...as a new and first time owner of a car I’ve wanted since I was a teenager, where do I start?! I was able to procure a 2005 LJ in pristine condition with 99k miles...
