First TJ: Hi from Texas

[mm5tj98]

After a long hunt, I managed to find a well-maintained '98 TJ Sahara with 180k miles!

Since buying it about a month ago, I've been busy

1. Went from 31"s to 33s"
2. Replaced the entire audio system (marine-grade Polk, under the seat Sound Orndance sub, marine-grade Sony head unit)
3. Replaced the windshield (it was cracked)
4. Replaced the headlights (KC HilLites)
5. Replaced the side mirrors (they were totally rusted through)
6. Got rid of the milk jugs and squared the bumpers off
7. Found some stock brush guards for the fog lights
8. And...Adding a Rugged Ridge Spartacus Spare Tire Carrier this weekend (since the 33 won't fit on the back now)

Love it!

Thank you!
Almost went with black, but decided the Gambler vibe was a bit more classic or something.

Good choice ….. black wheels are becoming pretty commonplace in comparison... the Gamblers are a nice classic look and not that common anymore.
