And what have you done to them. Trail pics are encouraged!!
This is mine, it's a 91 wrangler that was pretty much stock when I got it. These things are just as addicting as boats and cost just as much tricking them out!!
I built a long arm kit for it using 14" ORI struts.
Ford 9" rear with 4:56 gears and ARB air locker
Front is a Dana 44 with OX air locker
Changed the transmission to a SM 420 and just put in a ATLS 4 speed transfer case, all sitting on Pit Bull rocker radial 37 12.50 15. Next on the too do list is a set of beadlock wheels.
My son and I are heading up to coyote trail for the weekend, I'll let him post what he's done to his jeep if he wants to. Lol

Those look nice.

I have a girly jeep. 93 ZJ Stuffed under a bunch of junk in my overfilled Garage. The oil pressure sending unit went out and poured oil down the back. Thought it lost a seal. Tore the intake off to discover the roller cam eating itself up. Bought a new remanned motor built by Cummins for 1k from a guy who bought it and changed course.
Some day in my spare time.
No pics of my over stuffed garage though. :D

I always had one small problem with rock crawling...the crawling part. The flogging something you made, be it dirt or pavement, is fun. It's impressive to watch any wheeled vehicle go up and over what most would call a wall. It's just too slow;)

Almost embarrassed to post my new to me daily driver Rubicon clone after those other jeeps. First of the four Jeeps that I have owned to have power windows, locks, full doors and a hard top. Some modest tasteful upgrades in the future for sure.

After selling the boat last year we’ve been using our Jeep a lot. My 2 and 5 yr old daughters love to go camping. Several overland trips over the past year. I’ve probably spent close to a month in a tent during that time. Have done all the work to it myself in the garage.
Next project is adding a couple cylinders...

Never be embarrassed,
Jeeps are always a personal thing , and some are at different stages. Minecraft craft my Jeep was named by all the kids that use to see it and wanted to take pictures with it.
It started as a stock unlimited sport 4 years ago.

I've had it on two wheels a few times but never made all the way over :eek: not doing too much hard core stuff as of lately due to always bending something and spending hours underneath this thing replacing something.

My grandpa passed away a two months ago I bought his old jeep. Bone stock 97 tj 4.0 liter with only 90,000 miles. I have so many fun memories in this thing when he was still alive. They lived in mohave valley. Any time I had a chick go with me to the river and I stayed at thier house he would have it ready after we got off the lake for me to take the girl up in the hills by oatman to shoot some guns, drink beers and watch the sunsets. Other times just him and I would go explore looking for old mines and explore for hours.

My baby is only a few months old for me. Her first day after I got her, it snowed! Shes also taken a couple boats out of the water already! Only mods I've done so far is adding a tow hitch, oh shit handles for my small friends hahaha, and weather tech like mats. I'm absolutely adding more. Next I'm adding the mirrors for when the doors are removed and I'm going to get new tires in a couple months to add lift and traction for the next snow.
