For hardcore stuff I take the rubi, it is built to go just about anyplace I point it. On trips when I want to haul a lot of gear I take the xj. Other times a friend wil drive one or the other and we have a great day!

This is one of the easier trails I hit. But I get to see views like this Below those clouds is the city of Colorado Springs.

You and I are in very different situations. My Rubi is paid for, I am single, no kids at home, I don't have any bills other than monthly utilities and my toys. If I beat my rubi up chasing goats then so be it. I thought the trails you would be on in central Fl would be gator trails not goat...

Hold on a minute! If you got a rubicon and don't want to wheel it thats cool by me and probably as far as anyone else on this board is concerned it is going to be cool by them too. I bought mine for about the same price and then dropped another $10k or $11k into it with OBA, a 5.5" RE long arm...

Here is a write up I did a long time ago. http://www.jeepz.com/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=317672&highlight= It really does sound like it is the CPS. I carry a spare in the glove box now. If that thing dies the jeep becomes a heep and will not move on it's own power. ~Curt

Hi todd, Rattle can = spray paint :D I did a lot to the motor in my xj to get it to run cool. I replaced the thermostat, all of the hoses, the heater core, the overflow tank, the water pump, and put in a 3 core radiator. In the summer its great but in the winter it takes a long time before...

M.O.R.E. 1" body lift YJ Thanks Sully, A lot of people think I am nuts for doing what I have done to an 04 Rubicon but I like it and thats what I think is important. I am using it for what it was intended for and built it up a little more to handle what I put it through. ~Curt

The paint on my xj is not done yet (it's getting rattle canned), all the rest of the stuff you are talking about I did to mine in my garage. ~4" lift, ~32s, winch, better cooling, internal air compressor, lockers, etc these are all pretty easy as long as you have the tools to do it. If you are...

Best on-line weather I have found is http://www.intellicast.com/Local/USLocalStd.asp?loc=kaff&seg=LocalWeather&prodgrp=Forecasts&product=Forecast&prodnav=none Thats for my area, plug in your zip and go! :D

I live in the Springs, well just south in Fountain. What do you need done? I am pretty good with a wrench or two.

The hummer did pretty good. His long wheelbase and great width proved to be problematic at times. The guy that owns it only had it for about a week before he came out on this trail. He is not afraid to wheel his junk or get some body damage. There are a lot of pictures here...

As was stated by jeep90 "if you own a rubi and wheel it and use it the way that you should then this is not directed towards you". I understand that completely. I own an 04 Rubi and I wheel it and wheel it hard. I do get hassled by people a lot about it though. They say things like "why...

Happy Easter everyone!

Has anyone built a hoist for a jeep hard-top? I have seen a few for sale and it looks like I could build one from home-depot parts pretty easy and mount it in my garage. Thoughts? Ideas?

Engine swap I am 39. Married and divorced 3 times. Never gonna do that again. I act like I am bout 18 most of the time and since I got the Rubi I feel like I am 10 with a new toy!

Playing some heavy stuff sometime last year.

I put one in my XJ, took about 2 hours, was fairly easy. Good product that holds up. There are cheaper ways to go though.

She is all black, both tops are black too. No dealer stickers, kinda stealthy looking.

I will be spending some time on this part of the board now (when I can). I picked up an 04 Rubi last night and have to tell all of you that I am really happy with it. I went from the dealer right to a trail and started breaking her in. Now the fun begins.... Tires, lift, discos, bumpers...
