Hello everyone!
I'm pretty new to the KJ, I only bought one because after my divorce last year, I needed a cheap rig, and need 4x4 all too often!
Although new to the KJ, I'm far from new to jeep...
Over the last 30 years, I've owned and built a '47 Willy, 3 CJs, 9 TJs, 11 or 12 XJs, two ZJs, one JK (JUNK) and one WJ. Recently considering a HEMI WK with QD2.
I bought my lil '03 with 160k miles on it, and now it's about to roll 209k. I've recently replaced everything on the suspension all 7 control arms, and TRE's. I know all the horror stories with the 3.7 but other than burning a lil oil it's still going strong! I love this little rig, and loving it more now.
After hundreds of hours of research here and all over the WWW, I decided to do an extreme budget build on my KJ to take to the BIG MEAT RUN in Disney Oklahoma this year. I read all the stories and all the hype and hate over this brand vs that brand, and decided to buck the system, and do it all MY WAY! Lol!!!
I did the 1 7/8" eBay front spacer, netting 3.5" lift, a 2" eBay rear spacer, trail master 15" steelies, 31.10.50 mud claw extreme's. after the alignment for UNDER $1000.
I'm from Arkansas, and I'm not afraid of redneck engineering, I, kind of a smart#ss, so please consider that in anything I say or do. LMAO!!!!
