Hey, I'm new to the site and wanted to stop by and give a little background on myself and my Jeep.
I inherited my 87 YJ from my brother in August of 2008. He LOVED his Jeep. His wife tried to get him to sell it but he wouldn't give in. After he passed I let her now that I would like to keep it in the family, and she agreed that he would have liked that as well. Shortly after that it embarked on a LONG journey from Honolulu to Tampa.

He had made some improvements, such as a Jasper engine, Holley 4 barrel, Clifford 6=8 intake, Cliford header, Rhino lined the tub, and installed Bestop trailmax sport seats. I have only done minor upgrades since I have had it such as rebuild the carburetor and clean it up a bit.

I haven't done much wheeling yet but it I would like to in the near future. I'am currently in search of an Ax-15 to replace the Peugeot (which of course is on its last leg) so I can head out to the woods soon. I'am excited to be a part of your community and look forward to corresponding with you all.
Until then, Ben

P.s. I'am a newbie to posting as well so please bear with me. :1thumb:

Btw, if you are looking for an ax15 post up on the wanted jeep section.

You've got a good truck there, the only real downer is the square headlights but you can now get a kit to go round. :harhar:

Hi everyone, I'm Travis.

A bit about me, I'm an Afghanistan vet (Air Force) and still serving up at McChord. I'm on my first jeep, an '88 Wrangler, its a good vehicle over all but there are some minor issues with it (I'll post about those later). I'm not very mechanically inclined. I'm capable of doing most of it, and I've done a small amount of maintenance on up armored HMMWVs (the ultimate jeep from hell?), but I don't really have any desire to do it often.

Aside from that, I'm a gun guy, I'm very thick skinned, more than likely think I'm better than you even if confronted with evidence suggesting otherwise. :scratch:

Hope to be a thorn in y'alls side for a long long time.

Anyways, my name is aaron, im 27 years old and a united states coast guard veteran. i just purchased a 2000 XJ sport. 125k on it, CLEAN as hell too. bone stock. Working on lift/rims/tires to start. nothing major, im recently engaged and paying for a wedding so the cash flow will be short till june of 2010.

So i figured i'd introduce myself, hope to find some wheeling buddies here! if ya'll ever need a stocker to come play. ill come play, but cant get into anything serious just yet.
