Hey everyone, I figured since I'm probably going to start having to replace a lot of parts on the jeep, I might as well make them upgrades before they become problems. I'll be using this thread as a place to put everything I'm doing. History: Purchased back in 2008 in Anchorage, AK. Build date is 1/18/2008. Drove it down to 1/4 of a tank and moved back to CT from college, threw it on a truck, and met it back home. Here is how she's sitting right now ![]() Only cosmetic mods so far: Blacked out headlights Green LED Interior Dome lights Satin Black Stock 16" Rims There's only one place I know of to throw some actual mud here in CT. Those pictures will most likely always follow a new addition At each mod post, I'll also be posting the current mileage to keep a record. I placed orders today (11-5-14) for: AVS In-channel VV Thrush Welded Muffler 17650 They're scheduled to arrive Friday (So in reality Monday) and I'll be getting the muffler welded in place at my buddy's shop. Anyone have a pro/con list for removing the resonator? I can't seem to find any clips that show the sound difference. |

Changed front brake pads as they started to squeal. Noticed both the joints on my a arms need replacing so I will be ordering those as well as extended bumpstops. Also have something pretty nifty coming in the mail that you'll have to stay tuned for 233,008 Sent from my VS880 using Tapatalk |
