One Jeep you wish you had other than the KJ
Now that's dripping with cool, and I'd definitely have to get one if they ever put it on the market......(woot) Years ago I drove the city bug sprayer, it was mounted on a 1964 Jeep pickup, 4 speed manual, two lever transfer case, flat head inline 6, and manual locking front hubs. This was in...- SurfGuitar141

Cool....
Chances are they're not pursuit vehicles, but situational response vehicles like accident investigation units. I'm not a big fan of volunteer responders, and especially storm chasers having those high intensity light packages on their private vehicles. Thankfully most of the volunteer fire...- SurfGuitar141

One option you wish you had...
There's a Chevy dealership near me that does that on full size pickups, Tahoe's, and Surburbans. They use Rusty's lift kits, American Racing rims, and whatever oversized tires the tire shop across the street from them carries.....(didn't stick my head under to see if they included skids) The...- SurfGuitar141

It's the internet my man, and the internet is chock full of misinformation. It is also easy to be mislead by someone you normally trust. I'll give you one of my own "case in point" circumstances.....

Cheap Lift questions
How about Boiler's top plates and an additional 1/2" with a clevis lift, with brand new springs and struts I can only assume this would bring it back to stock height with an extra 1" + of lift. If you get the Daystar spacer, you'll have to disassemble the struts, add the spacer, and change the...- SurfGuitar141

trim work???
When I trimmed the front bumper on my '05 Renny I cut just above one of the rivets leaving quite a bit of plastic flapping in the breeze. I fixed that with a 3/4" stainless sheet metal screw that reattached the wheel well liner to the flare....(one on each side did the trick)- SurfGuitar141

I have a flat hood renny, and they "could" fit with some slight modification, but they are advertised by Mopar as not being made to fit the Renegade.....
