lol RACRGUY.. yeah she's definitely good looking for sure, but unfortunately i dont have any pics of her. My buddy said he'd get some of her in a bikini if the jeep made it into a magazine but that hasnt happened yet. LOL.

It's a huge PITA going longarm in the front on a jk, he had to do alot of surgery on the exhaust to get it all to coexist in the same area.

Zach, the best forum IMO is jkowners.com. There is a huge wealth of information (and alot of bullshit newbie questions too) but by now just about everything possible has been done to a JK. The site is a subforum of pirate4x4.com which is pretty much the end-all be-all of 4x4 forums. there's also a Texas subforum on JKO, where you can find some pretty good deals from time to time in the classifieds. I know a couple people on here are on that site.

and by the way, prepare yourself for body damage.. our very first time out we did this





wasnt bad really but it was a little hard for my wife to swallow at first. I'm used to body damage so it didnt bother me. LOL

Not bad. I was looking at 2drs a few weeks ago, then saw they still get worse gas milage than my 5.0, which is already horrendous. I then started unenthusiastically looking at Subaru Outbacks.

We looked at the 4 door a few years ago and the shitty mileage was a surprise to me, and the reason we stopped considering them almost immediately.

Our average on the gauge is 16, on the highway i have seen 18.8

we got 17 on the hwy with the 37s.. 13 or less in the city. can't be that much of a surprise, these things are about as far from aerodynamic as you can get. the newer ones (2013+) might get better gas mileage with the new motor but i doubt its a whole lot different.
