Hey everyone! I saw another kj around my area today. Heading towards the midtown tunnel going from Portsmouth, VA to Norfolk. It had to be somebody from here with all the mods that it looked like it had. I was probably about a half mile away so I couldn't see it all that great but oh well. Anyways, it was light tan on the top half, the bottom was black, it was definitely lifted (maybe sfa-couldn't really tell from distance), aftermarket wheels/tires and looked to have a roof rack. Let me know who it is! Awesome liberty to whomever owns it!
Thanks!

Cool! It's about time I finally see another lifted kj around the area! Never actually saw one from the website. I like the jeep in the background there too. Glad to see there is more than I think around this area! Thanks!

That Jeep in the background is also his, Check out Hampton Roads Jeep Club (http://www.hrjc.org) Mike got me involved with them. There are a few KJ in the club.

Thanks for the compliments! If it was the midtown, my wife was driving it. She slowly has taken over the KJ since I got the JK. Flag either of us down if you see us. I'll throw a better pic of the JK below.

SFA! Haha. Not yet. Running a modified Frankenlift on 32's. As far as I know, based off the how official lift height thread, I may still be the tallest non-sfa out there. A few have gone past me but, end up breaking stuff. Been lucky so far I guess... (gotta knock on wood now). Let me know if you have any questions about any of my current or past setups let me know.

OT. Shoe creek run this weekend, stock KJ can do the trail no problem. Day trip though some of us are camping. I can throw up more info if any one is interested.

I'll be sure to check out the site! Thanks for the info!

I like the look of the jk! Love that color! Haha well I do have horrible eyes so couldn't really see how tall it was! You must be a lucky person if nothing has broken yet! (not on wood for ya, too lol.) I've already had to replace a few things on mine and it's nowhere near that height.

The trip sounds like a great time! I'll be in North Carolina this weekend for another tattoo but I'll eventually take the darn thing offroading lol. I'm the newbie around the area that's scared I'll break something and have no money to repair it! :shock:

Thanks for the quick responses and nice to finally see the KJs mentioned on here. I've only seen one other lifted on so far since I've had mine and the girl knew about the jeep so couldn't ask questions! Anyways, thank ya'll! Hope to see both of ya'll around the area! :D

Hey, I've seen that tan KJ before. I was pulling out of NAS Oceana and you were on Oceana going towards General Booth. You are one of about 3 lifted KJ's I have seen around the area. I got a CRD so I like spotting them too!

I've got a buddy who lives right off of general booth. Probably heading to his house when you saw us.
