Wave from Kannapolis, NC

Hi, all...

Just bought a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport last Monday. Wanted to get the Rubicon but when the dealer said he would install a lift kit with new wheels and 35s I said, 'Why not!' I'm not new to the Jeep life but am to off-roading. I used to have a 2010 Jeep Liberty but had to give it up for a more comfortable ride (we had to drive 12 hours to see family). Now that I have my new Jeep I'm looking forward to a few rocks.

Welcome from Charlotte. What kind of lift and tires did they install?

They lifted the Jeep 2.5" and put on American Racing ATX wheels with 35" Nitto Trail Grappler tires. Dealer gave me a good deal on the Sport.

Got pictures?

I need to decide what the first addition should be. Have to get two more jobs first though.

What's going . Nice Jeep. I'm in Kannapolis as well.

Those are terra grapplers, not trail grapplers. Also, I would score a set of rubicon rock sliders off craigslist first if I were you.

 

[Jamiejku10]

I'll second the Rubicon sliders. I scored my HardRock sliders from a guy for $200 off Craigslist.

You're right. For some reason I had 'trail' on the brain. I appreciate the advice!

Looks good! I'm a little partial to black Jeeps myself.

Welcome. I live about 10 minutes outside of Kannapolis. Based on the rural setting in your pictures, we are nearby neighbors I bet. I go off road frequently, you are welcome to join me any time. I have recently built a trail on my property.

Thanks for the welcome! Are there any good trails around other than Uwharrie? I'm totally new to OR so don't want to go crazy. Plus funds are tight after buying the Jeep. I want to keep the damage low until armor can be put on.
