So I was looking at the rust on my 98, and started thinking about where I eventually wanted to go with it. You know upgraded axles, more lift, 33 inch tires. I started running the numbers. Then I happened to be studying for finals :D when I found this.

It was a good price, but I still wasn't sure that I wanted to go through the hassle of selling my other jeep. Then my dad offered me kbb value for it as long as I left the tires, wheels, lift, and rock rails on it.

Between that and the good deal, I decided to pull the trigger. Now after waiting a month for the title, it is finally mine.

The plans are light for now until its paid off, the first mod for now is going to be ziebart.

Thanks guys. I can't wait to wheel it.

Heres what its replacing http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v2427/177/82/655819038/n655819038_1606800_7716251.jpg

I really don't know where this build is going to take me.

I am thinking 33x10.50 would be great for dd.

I also think ill wait until I pay it off for that.

I am thinking that stage one will be a bl belly up etc.

So far for driving impressions, it is geared really low. It has the 6 speed, but I usually just start in 2nd. Everytime I shift into 6th I always freak out a little thinking I'm throughing it into reverse.

It's a 2005 with roughly 33000 miles.

It is 100 percent clean underneath. It looks like it was never off the pavement. The only mod done was a bypass locker switch so that the axles can be locked at any time.

Bill is yours the 6 speed? How is it with the 33s and stock gearing?
