Hey all! My name is Mike, and I'm happy to be a new member of the forum. I've been reading through for quite some time before now finally joining. Below you will find a pic of my pride and joy. He's a 2012 KK Arctic Edition, closing in on 70k miles. I've had him for a year and he's currently stock, with big plans for the future. I'm building her on a budget so I'll do my best to stay up to date and will start a build thread once it gets going. I'll be starting out with a Daystar 2'' spacer lift, pinch weld mod, and 31's. Yes I know the spacers are no good, I've already begun my savings for the following:

OME 927 with 1/4'' top plate and 3/8 clevis up front
JBA 4'' springs in the rear
JBA UCA's
ATH's Front shackle mounts

After that, the next steps will be:
ATH's front and rear bumpers
Regear to 4.56's

Like I said I've been reading extensively on the forum for quite some time now, so I'm pretty familiar with what has been suggested for mods and such. Still let me know if you guys have any suggestions, I'm all ears! Let me know if you're in the area and want to meet up, go for a cruise and definitely hit the trail, I've been dying to for some time now.

Nice! Know any trails around? And are you still driving a liberty?

No shame in that, at the end of the day you have to do what's right for you. i was surprised to see what is available for the patriot. You can definitely build it up to be one of a kind!

On a side note, it looks like there aren't nearly as many active members on the forum anymore. Any reason why?

Haha makes sense, I was just curious. I've got some very cool projects (including one that I've not come across yet on the site) coming up soon, keep an eye out :POPCORN:
