Hi  All,

One of the Vehicles i have is a Jeep. I have a more than my fair share of them.  My Current 4 letter word is a 2005 Liberty.  It's a 3.7 Auto "Rocky Mountain Edition"  It's a nice Jeep about 95K has 3:73 gears with the factory limited slip.

I picked up a full set of Skid Row Skid plates and a Old man emu lift used for 200 bucks. So we'll see how that works out. I also ordered a set of rock sliders from rocky road outfitters.  I plan to continue to drive the jeep daily.  I am doing the lift and other parts next spring. I live in the  Midwest-ish  (northern Wisconsin) so there isn't a lot of wheeling like out west but the Jeep Jamborees are pretty fun so i will attend some of those.

Anyway Hi All.

I'm here for my 83 Pickup but my daily is a 99 Jeep Wrangler. Nothing much done to it other than a little lift and 31's. I can't say that I'm a jeep lover but I do like this one.

Here's my old 2000 XJ that I built with a friend before I got my Hilux. We set out with the goal to build a capable rig for less than $4000 and the initial build hit that target easily.  It's on axles from a 1976 Ford F100 - 35 spline ford 9 inch, high pinion dana 44. Both have aussie lockers. The rear is just an add-a-leaf and a longer shackle, the front is the Ford radius arms extended to reach the transmission crossmber, about 3.5" lift. 35" tires, lots of trimming in the fenders to fit them with such minimal lift.

It's since gotten more upgrades that bring up the total cost, like nice offroad lights, a winch, bypass shocks, and disk brakes. The friend I built it with owns it fully now, so you'll see it in most of the wheeling videos in my build thread. It's pictured here near Yankee Hill after I hydrolocked the motor ripping through that deep water in the background  :D  Pulled the plugs and cranked all the water out and it drove home and hasn't missed a beat since, you can't kill those AMC 4.0 engines! I will maintain that you can't beat an XJ for dollar to capability ratio, if I ever want a more stockish truck to play with it'll probably be an XJ on 31s with a rear locker.

1981 Pickup - 37s, 5.29s, L52, dual cases 4.7 rear, e-locker front, grizzly rear, 22R stroker
1986 4Runner - 35s, 4.30s, auto, rear spool, 4" lift
