fellows!

That's the problem, everyone that has a Jeep they always want to do something to it. :amazed:

FD17, I received your email with regards to what motor, there are many variables depending on what exactly you wish to do with the Jeep. There are outcomes to each mod that you will do as well. Keep track of your mods by taking pictures and do a write up in the build up forum section, I for one like to see all the good things that people do and learn all the time from it.

I think you should start a topic in the Tech forum with your question, create a topic for different questions. There are many people that visit JeepTalk with a huge amount of experience. As you get your answers in the post others will benefit from the information as well. :cheers:

Hey guys. Been on JT for some time now (actually over a year) - never officially introduced myself. My secret Santa gave me the best gift a gal could ever get - a JEEP! So, here it goes....Born in Hialeah USofA, and raised South Floridian, w/ some out-of-area/State living from time-to-time. Past several years...North Mia Bch; Hollywood-Davie; Ft. Lauderdale areas. My Jeep - '87 YJ. But, modding the lights of course! And pretty much everything else too! (working on pics of mods for you Jim) Love the outdoors, and most of all wheeling and then relaxing by a fire in no-where land!!! Or just relaxing by a fire at home with my secret Santa and friends :devilgrin:

I look forward to spending more time with all I know, and look forward to meeting and spending time with all I don't know. See ya around some time! And see ya around in JT.

Hey everybody !!!!! happy to be here and see so many jeepers in one spot. I live in the keystone/melrose area. I'm a firefighter for the city of jacksonville and have alot of free time if anyone needs a hand or a extra set of wheels to get you out. I have a 01 TJ that is my DD and is pretty much stock for now. got 32's and a few little things but hour drive to work keeps the lift and tire size down. If anyone is in the area and likes oysters and beer then hit me up and we can get together and have a enjoyable evening.

Hi all,

Always wanted a Jeep and now I'm ready to pull the trigger. I started seriously looking few weeks ago. I found this forum looking for information. Hopefully I will find my Jeep in the near future.

marksta200, there's a lot of information here on Jeeptalk that will help you with your project. CJ-7's are my favorite jeep to built, I had several of them and always had fun working on them. Keep us post it on the progress of your new adventure!!!

xhotrodx, welcome to the jeep family. The South Florida Jeep Club is going to be at the car show in the Tower Shops on friday march 5th, check it out on the calendar and try to make it so you can meet some of us and talk a little about jeeps!!!

Hi folks, I am interested in meeting others for adventure/camp & photo outings via most applicable mode of travel, be it ORV, bike, foot or boat/kayak.
Years ago used to go out to Bear Island in Big Cypress for camping & riding with the ol' Plantation Jeep Club, glad to see it has morphed and grown! Also done some wheeling in New Mexico & Tellico Plains in NC.
Ok, so I don't have a Jeep, but this seems to be an active group still, and I'd like to make it out there (BC) again .. well I'm resurrecting an 85/86 Toy, actually the very same one I used ride out in BC the first time around .. lol

Hi Everybody, My name is Joel. I got a 99 TJ bout a month ago and love it. I attended the tower shops meeting with my two kids tonight. Everybody was so nice and I really enjoyed meeting all of you. I am looking forward to some nice adventures, some good times, and good friends. I am going to become a member and attend the meeting in April. I hope I get back soon enough from Sebring to maybe head up to Corbett this Sunday with those of you that said you were going. My lift is stockl, but I have 31s. How would I do?

I am going to have a hard time remembering everyone's name from tonight, so next time I see you I may have to re-introduce myself. Thanks again to everyone for being so welcoming. It seems like a GREAT club! :spacecraft1:
