Great pics. I lived in the U.P. for 12 years, 2 of those was in Kingsford (Iron Mtn). Wish I had the Jeep when I lived up there

Michigan has a well established trail system which is great! I just wish Wisconsin could have something similar. I know WHOVA has been working on this for over a decade with little results.

I used to meet SO many people from Green Bay/Appleton area in the winter because everyone flocked to the U.P. during the weekends to snowmobile. I was always wondered why they did that :crazyeyes:
I'll actually be coming up Mother's Day weekend to visit my grandmother. I'm planning on taking the Jeep to get a little trail time in.

Just picked up Double Deuce from Exhaust Pros in Green Bay - they welded up some of the exhaust were it was leaking and redid some of the hangers. Originally I had the Dynomax exhaust that dumped right after the passenger seat. I then added the tail section of the MBRP system with a Flowmaster Super44. After 6 months of driving, I had a good amount of noise. Long story, I know, now there are no leaks, squeaks, or creaks.
They also found that there were two leaks at the manifold so they replaced some hardware up there too; sounds great now! :rock:
I have a few goodies coming in the mail in the upcoming weeks - seat covers, EVO mini fender liners, and some new Wild Boar grab handles.

Fixed hard grab handles were the best thing I ever put in my Jeep... lol. Makes getting in and out so much easier. And they came on my RH cage, so that's a plus!

I love the quality of the MasterCraft handles I have now, but I just don't use them to get in and out, and rarely out on any trails. Whenever I'm getting into the vehicle, I'm always grabbing the steering wheel. I figured I'd try out the Wild Boars.
Have you looked at Grabars? Might be a good option too.

Front grab bars installed - they work great!
Got the front seat covers installed last night, ran out of daylight so I'll put the rear in after work today. Man, these are incredible!

These have been around since right after I bought my Grabars over a year ago. They are identical but cheaper. Seems like just another company knocking off someone else's hard work.

I have the wild boars too. This is my third jeep. I had grabars on the last two. I know they're knockoffs, but for a third of the price, I figured what the hell. I'll try them out. They work just as good as the original. Now I have more money for other upgrades.

What a crazy past few weeks it has been! First of all, I'd like to introduce a future WAYALIFE member, Dylan Grey! He took his first Jeep ride last week when after being discharged from the hospital. The nurse said that I had the coolest discharge vehicle she's ever seen! :clap2:
I'm loving the front handles so much that I ordered a set for the rear. The first set came in with a textured paint - I returned those and they replaced with the correct finish.
