I followed a Nitro for a few minutes yesterday. We're so alike, yet so different.

I got to get up close and personal with one in Carlisle, Pennsylvania the other day.
One of the main differences that I noticed was their side skirts and this one happened to be an R/T so I was looking at the 4.0L engine.

Yeah this one was an R/T, too. I didn't get a chance to see more than its rear end though.

Each day that goes by I want my lift more and more. The ride is a lot bouncier now at 24,xxx miles versus when I first bought it at 5,xxx.

What ya waiting for? :-)r

When I was following this guy I was watching how a stock KK handles the dips in the road since this road has a sewer what seems like every two blocks that you're forced to drive over.

I'm waiting for cash! I can always throw it on the 'ol credit card but I hate putting big purchases on it if I don't have to. I like to have the money on its way so I can pay it off quickly anytime I put a big purchase on it.

Just like the KK, I believe the rear is the best angle to view the KA from.
When I purchased my lift it was tax return money. Saving up for a simple yet effecting OME setup, or something a little more expensive? I was lucky enough to save a few pennies when the Tommud Econo was $750 or so.

Right now I'm just looking at the OME lift. I intend on using tax return dollars towards it. If I get my bonus this year, I could use those funds, too, but I'm trying to save that potential cash for a vacation. Down the road I want to add the a-arms and will probably throw in the clevis lift and extra isos that I already have.

The OME lift is well worth it. You won't need the arms right away, but surely an upgrade when ya do get them.

That's why I was thinking about putting the lift on the credit card now and paying it off when I get the return, along with throwing on the a-arms.

Worked a month on the night shift, now it's back to days! This should be fun. :dizzy:

Completed half of my lift on the XJ and took apart the rear only to stop due to major rust issues. Nothing a quick order to Amazon can't fix.

Amazon is fantastic. With Prime, I've directed a lot of my shopping to them for simplicity's sake. My girlfriend is the same way.

I have to come up with something to get my girlfriend for her birthday :banghead:

I have a week and no idea what to get. She got me tickets to see Billy Joel for my birthday, so it has to be on par with that.... :banghead:

I haven't seen any jewelry that I like(nor she would like), and am running out of options. I'm starting to consider taking her on a vacation...

Get her a puppy.. Girls love puppies lol

Amazon seriously is the best.. Here's a pic of my sad looking XJ.

Need to flush the Coolant too

My girlfriend's is the 19th. LKW, I would get her a puppy, but her parents would kill me. They have 1 dog(who's old as is) and 5 cats. Her grandparents died and they had to take in the 3 cats because everyone else in the family was allergic or lived with someone that was.

Spotted a lifted Commander today. We even exchanged waves. That was really cool to see!

Got my G Test tomorrow morning at 9am, pretty nervous. Sucks too because I am unable to use my KK as it has a crack across the whole window... so I'm using my girlfriend's 2011 acura csx which has a lot more power than our KK's. Gonna try and not speed :ROTFL:

Oh I forgot it's different between countries. There's a series of road tests you need to take in your lifetime for your license. G1 is beginner, G2 is intermediate and G is advance (last one in your life) other than renewing it when your 60 years old I believe. The G Test is going to be more highway driving, merging, parallel parking and emergency parking which is roughly 30 minutes.

Gageraid · **Posted:** Wed Aug 13, 2014 11:31 pm

Never heard of those tests. Good luck!
