    Hey from Florida.

    Hey all, Thought I would finally get around to indroduce myself. Live in Clearwater Fl I am an Ex ASE mech. and Welder Fabricator and am curently a commercial helicopter pilot. This is my second YJ and third in my trio of off road vehicals. I was out of it for a while but decided to pick the current YJ up with a knocking engine and other wise all stock. rebuilt the 4.2 , Added a 6 inch suspension, 1 inch b/l, 15x8 M/T classics 35x12.5 Baja Claws, SYE and Woods D/S, Front axle got a possi lock, welded diff, 4.56 gears rear is an 8.8 Ford, modified limited slip diff with extra packed clutches, 31 spline Moser axles. And the A/C works. Thats about it so far but Im sure it will be getting alot more, getting ready to start fabbin the front and rear bumpers and tire carrier. Pics to follow.

    Re: Hey from Florida.

    Wow! That's one sweet YJ! It looks like you've got quite a bit of time invested in that Wrangler, and I'll bet it's worth it. Welcome to Jeepz, glad to have you on board!
