Moving to the DARK SIDE

raceinfan · **Posted:** Tue Feb 10, 2009 8:02 pm

well I bit the bullet & am purchasing a 97 TJ for my wheeling activity's on saturday, it's a 4.0, 4.5 lift, 33's

YES I'm KEEPING THE KJ, just not gonna wheel her anymore, need at least one dependable vehicle to get to work on monday should anything happen ( excl. my wifes KJ )

so it will be retired as of monday from woods excursions

I got a smokin deal on this too, as soon as I pick it up I'll post pic's

I'll still be around here don't worry, I'm not leaving, just moving in a differant direction

Don't forget to get your keester into the Wrangler section for tech, pics, etc.

Yeah, I think we are going to need some pictures

first gotta get it tuned up,fluid changes, etc.

eventualy gonna upgrade to d44's, ARB Lockers front & rear

probably upgrade the lift to a Rubicon Express 5.5 & 36 Irok's

and in the future ( 2 yrs) can you say HEMI :twisted:

WITH ALL THE PROPER STUFF INVOLVED OF COURSE :wink:

that's my plan anyways, depends on $$$$

it's gonna take sometime & $$ to get it were I want but my goal is 2-3 yrs for the finished product

this Jeep isn't even in my driveway yet & I've already got a list 4 pages long of modifications & it's only begun :wink:

it'll be a work in progress for quite some time but it is gonna be one BAD Jeep when it's done...oh wait a minute, there never done

I can't blame you. For about $3k, I will have a V8-powered jeep with a 109" wheelbase, D60 front with a locker, welded D70HD rear, on 37" tires with beadlocks. For me, this was just a way better way to go then using the KJ for a 'wheeler. Especially since I will not be worrying about what little body is left behind after the sawzall attack on the FSJ.
