When I bougtht my Renny in 02, they came with step rails, and not rock rails. I bought a pair of rock rails from Rocky Road http://www.rocky-road.com/kjrockrail.html If I were to do it again, I would go thru All J Products (www.boulderbars.com) Quinn and those guys know just about EVERYTHING you can know about a liberty and they treat you well. I think they're prices are pretty comparable to the MOPAR ones and in the case of quality, you aren't going to beat those ones from All J. The Jeep will break before those do!

As for the logo, I've got a buddy of mine who actually is anartist working on the logo.

As for the warrenty, you can put one on and it will NOT void your warrenty. The only thing Jeep will say is that if you try to claim something about the lift or the suspension, they won't cover it, everything else will still be covered in your bumper to bumper warrenty!

Take it easy!

Hey I gave a sketch idea to a designer as well ( retired microsoft guy his team designed the xbox) See what he gets out of my poor sketch. He is working on it too. Hey at least we will have 2 to choose from. Any one else out there get on the ball and lets see what you can come up with.
I dont want BB's at this time I am more concerned with engine and fuel tank protection. Your renny came with that stock correct? Hey Ill buy your light bar off of you? Got any wheels? Im bone stock for now but time will tell.
Hey Ill keep this board informed when I go out next. I have a few buddies that have Rangers actually there are three of them so I could use the support representing the Jeep. Should be soon I-90 perhaps.

I don't have anything that is worth selling right now, but if it comes about I'll let you know buddy! keep me updated on designs and any trailin info if you go!

Take it easy,

Hey Guys and Gals? It looks like I am heading to Reader Pit tomorrow. I know it is a little unplanned....It works like that for me a lot. Any how It is out by Index. There is a lot of dirt bike action which we will be doing but this time I am taking my Liberty. There is some serious terrain and some mellow stuff. I will report back to see if there is anything worth planing a trip for the NW LOST CREW.

If any of you are more spontanious than me and want to go. Benjamins2rt@aol.com I will check it before we leave and give you directions or meet up before the park.

See ya
Ben

LETS HOOK UP NW LIBERATORS NEXT SATURDAY ANY TAKERS

ARBSeth · **Posted:** Sun Oct 02, 2005 10:42 pm

Ok,
You guys sucked me back in again. I tried this once before and well, lets say it wasn't the greatest time I ever had.

I'm in SoCal next weekend for Off Road Expo, but I'll be back the following weekend. Let's put something together this week, and I'll take you guys around to a few places, see what we can do. Reiter is a great place to go, and my man, you have seen anything yet up there...I've got pics of my 02 in over the hood out there.... Good times!

Anyway, lets make it happen.

Aloha!

Seth

KJs2rt · **Posted:** Sun Oct 02, 2005 11:15 pm

Reider Pit up to the hood eh?...I believe you because two weeks ago I took the Cr450F up near the Tower. Just before you get there there is about 200 yards of puddles or as I learned the hard way deep booty holes that are hiding like puddles. I hit that hole and had the front fender under the mud,submerged like a frikin submarine. Its is the secluded part of the forrest up there. I have seen some amazing trucks come out of there. People bring them in on trailers. I am a So Cal guy use to paddel tires and dunes. Wheeled LAV-25's for 4 years. Used to rescue rolled H1's.Camp Pen

Hey I am off Sat. I will be there regardless with the Bike and at least two Rangers that need to be put in their place. I am rolling on stock crap but willing to play. The guy with the red Ranger has a good connection with Olympic 4x4 so he is going to hook me up with a discount on my Skyjacker with a free instal . Ill build him a composite deck. Lets get out there and see who sets the bar. Its not the rig its the driver. Bone Stock Ben Do your self a favor and check out the ARB link check the bumper on the lib ( Seths Post).........................WOW%$#$%$#

Adam come on man you have to make it . Bring us one of those cubes of coffe you guys sell. It will come in nice when we are freezing our libs off.

PS. ARB is based in Seattle down town by Lake Union. Seth.?[/img]

ItalianBarista · **Posted:** Mon Oct 03, 2005 3:36 am

Hey guys, that sounds great! Let me know what day you all want to go so I can get it off of work, and then give me directions and I"ll be there! That sounds like great fun! I'll see what I can about coffee!!!

Take it easy ya'll,

ADAM

ARBSeth · **Posted:** Mon Oct 03, 2005 1:20 pm

Lake Union? I wish! Last I looked, I drove my booty down to Renton this morning.

Ok, here's the deal. I'll take you guys the 16th. Meet in Monroe at the Starbucks in the Fred Myer Parking lot off HWY 2 at 0900. I'll be in the Big booty Green KJ with ARB Stickers all over it. Anyone is welcome...

Trail rules...

If someone gets stuck, you help dig his booty out because it could be you next time, especially at Reiter.

This is in no way an ARB function. I'm just going as a KJ guy who knows the area. So you do anything stupid, it's on you!

Bring a strap, a shovel and some boots you don't mind getting trashed. It's muddy as hell out there this time of year. I should have my winch installed by then, so I can get you out, but you're hooking it up to your rig!

I may sound like I'm patronizing, but last time I went with strangers, it didn't go well. I know the area very well, and can take you from mild to wild out there...so come to play hard and we'll see how it goes.

KJs2rt · **Posted:** Mon Oct 03, 2005 11:19 pm

Adam if you want to go out there on the 8th as well as the 16th lef me know. I am going to go out there this weekend and do a little more recon of the trails. Its probabbly a good idea before we go out with Seths Big Green Monster. I have to make sure I dont work on the 16th, It should not be a problem to get it off if I do.

Drop me a line. directions to reider are as follows. 405N to 522East to Highway 2 Go east and then take a left on Reider Road. We should meet in Monroe which is the first town once you get on highway 2. Its really easy to get there. Let me know Ill e-mail you some better directions.

If you cant make it no big deal!
ADAM!!!!!Hold off on the coffe Seths high strung!!
See ya Ben

ARBSeth · **Posted:** Tue Oct 04, 2005 12:43 pm

I'm actually really mellow. Lemme tell you what happened last time:

Dude who will remain nameless decides he wants to try the Sarlac (Big Ole Mud pit on top of Jack's Pass) OK, I tell him his stock rig doesn't have a prayer, but we'll dig him out just the same. Everyone agrees. This is in December, so said mud pit had 6" of ice on the top of it. Little stock KJ drops in and he boots it. Ice cracks, he hits the 35" Swamper sucking rutts, and it's all over. He laughs, gets out, and we get going on excavation. 2 other rigs we're with stop and watch, offering limited assitance. He and I dug our asses off for an hour to get him out. The other 2 guys kinda watched and didn't really do much of anything but piss me off. Driver guy was cool, and we got him out.

Long story short, I'm a little skeptical about taking strangers anymore. I'm a mellow fellow, really. I'm just not all about guys watching me dig out someones rig. Anyway, it's a good time out there. Just don't be that guy! C U Guys in a couple weeks?

Wow you people are actually getting this going! The group spot to meet on the way up to Jack Pass and other fine spots off Rt. 2 is the Dutch Cup Restaurant. Great breakfast and cheap.

May even see snow at 4000' this weekend.

Catch you on the way up this Saturday!!!

ItalianBarista · **Posted:** Tue Oct 04, 2005 9:21 pm

I'd love to go you guys but saturday is a really busy day for me!

I will ask for the 16th off of work and let you know how that goes! I'd really love to meet up with you guys and we can get this group really going! Sounds like a great plan!

Talk to you soon!

ADAM

KJs2rt · **Posted:** Tue Oct 04, 2005 10:30 pm

Hey Seth,

Welcome back. I was wondering what happened to you. Glad to know that someone with a KJ is now at ARB.

Is TR still there?

At any rate Saturday or Sunday... I'll be there.

-John

raiderrescuer · **Posted:** Sun Mar 12, 2006 10:56 pm

I am in Salem Oregon and there is plenty of KJ's...problem is most of them seem to be owned by commuters and not 4x4 types.

gatorator · **Posted:** Fri Jun 09, 2006 10:06 pm

Did they go and never come back?
