Title: Only sort of new
Post by: ny1995zj on November 03, 2008, 08:57:19 PM
Hey.. I\'m Mike...
Been watching the boards.. for I don\'t know.. probably a few years now.
Just moved from Buffalo 2 years ago now to Rochester. Just bought our first house in March, and got married in June. Now that things are starting to settle down, I\'d like to get back to some of the things I enjoy....
I\'d like to point out that I\'m not \"hardcore\" into wrenching or wheeling. I do love Jeeps.. and do enjoy wrenching. It all started with my 95 ZJ.. which I only had a 2\" BB on, but was a load of fun. I now have an 04 LJ Unlimited, which is currently a daily driver.
Would love to get into the trail rides, and hang out when time allows. I\'m sure I will see you all soon, and talk about membership!

is there rock rails on it? it looks good with the A/T\'s on it, i like the white letters. I had a set of those on my 87 wrangler and they did well.
did you buy the LJ new? and have you done any upgrades?

yeah the rock rails were pretty much the first thing I put on. I always had problems with my rockers on the trail in my ZJ. I have always been a music \'nut\' when it comes to vehicles, so I did install 4 new speakers.. stereo.. and built a custom sub box for the center console. Certainly no loud booming for everyone to hear(thankfully).. but it helps fill the sound out all the way
Other than that... I haven\'t had the time or $ to do anything with it.. with the house and wedding. I do have a nice garage at the new house so I can finally get some things done though.
Probably just put a 2\" BB on for now, as it will have to remain a daily driver for a couple years.
I just bought it last September... so i\'ve only had it for little over a year.. but certainly long enough to get my urges back to lift it like a foot and put 37\'s on .. haha....
here\'s another (http://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc169/msimps6/jeep.jpg)
