So there's not too much Jeep in the picture, but I think you'll be able to figure out why I like it.

I give him credit for even trying to get through that. Some more picture here:

He's got a 6" lift on it and dug himself in pretty good. The water just kept pouring out the doors once it was out. The seats were a bit damp too.
Looked fun though!

thats a good way to ruin the inside of a new vehicle ;) i dont go through water until i see someone else go through it to see how deep it is. i dont want water in my jeep :) now my wrangler was a different story, i had 3 drain holes each that were always open on the driver and passenger floor, plus some in the rear foot area buit i kept those closed. i didnt have carpet so i wouldnt be scared to go throgh that stuff :)

And that is why a winch is nice to have. Though mine has been sitting in its box in my living room for two years.

Isn't it fun to pull out a rig that everyone say's is better then yours?

Looking good there and those winches are worth every penny that one time you need them.

That's cool & it's a nice looking FJ, too bad they don't sell them out there.

wasn't that a 2wd KJ? I thought that is what I was reading somewhere else.

Mine was a coffee table for the longest time!

The guys were super nice and the FJ is only four months old. It was awesome to see it make it up Truck Hill in the background of the first picture. I got to drive it and it did rock!

The KJ is 4wd. Rear locker only, so the FJ just walked up a hill I couldn't make. The mud pit was a blast though. Sucked to clean the clay/mud out of everywhere, but really fun anyway.

Great pics!

I wish the KJ came standard with a plastic/rubber lined floor. Guess the closest you can get is rhino lining the interior. I saw some pics floating around here of someone who did that to their KJ.

It's my intention to try doing that this summer... as soon as it's warm and dry more consistently.


Yellocoyote, not sure if you've seen this before, but take a look here, it'll give you a good idea. I had to completely shampoo all sorts of mud, dirt and grit out of my carpet last week. I can only imagine how much easier this would be to maintain. Not to mention that it looks better IMO.

I'm looking to go out and get the supplies to Herculine my floor here real soon. Is it suggested that I paint it on, or would it be better to spray?

Do you mean, like last week, you wanted a Pacer, but you bought a KJ instead? :wink:
