I've been looking through these forums for quite some time. Figured it might be a good time to stop being a spectator and start being a contributor! :rock:
My names Mat
I'm located in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
A bit over a year ago, I bought my first jeep. A 2001 Jeep TJ. The jeep was in great shape, had a cheap 3.5 lift on it, badly worn 33's, but had potential. Over the year I owned it, I took it on 5-6 wheeling trips, fried the clutch, added all new speakers, head unit, rear bumper, new 33's. I loved the jeep, but always found myself wanting a vehicle that was a bit more tame on the highway. After re-watching some of my favorite WayofLife Youtube videos, I quickly got convinced a 4 door JK was the vehicle I was looking for. I immediately posted the jeep on Craigslist and had it sold within a month.
The next task was finding a 4 door JK that I liked. After weeks of searching, I finally found a billet 4 door at my dealership. After a week of working out pricing, I finally pulled the trigger and picked it up just 3 weeks ago. Within those 3 weeks I've done several things to it, and ordered a hefty amount of parts. I'll be sure to start my own build thread for the jeep later this evening so you guys can see the progress as I make changes. :thumb:
I look forward to chatting with you all, and hopefully setup a few wheeling events to break in the new jeep right!
