dear God that paint sceme is TERRIBLE!!!! And a Red top? You built one hell of a bad ass off roader but wouldn't want to look at it with that paint! Poor Jeep
I like what you did from start to finish. I am building a 72 cj-5 and having alot of fun doing it. I used to own full size broncos, & let me tell ya, Jeeps are way better to work on and they perform better too.
ur all hurtin i work at a dodge dealer and own a jk sure its plastic and theres tons of stuff to put on aftermarket wise but a set of 8 ply 285 70 17s fit right on rip the side steps off and the thing goes anywhere swaybar links r for cars rip the thing off and it woulda crawled way higher up that ramp snorkel tires rip ur swaybar link off and caller a day
cheap ass blow-molded fender flares and bumper stuff: yes
nothing an internet shopping spree won't fix.
IMO any jeep right off the dealer's floor is shit, if they weren't, people wouldn't be modding them out like they do.
lastly if your jeep runs and crawls with the best of them there isn't much OE jeep stuff left anyway so what's the real problem with the JK? Jealousy perhaps!?
yes number one there plastic. number 2 thjeres no more 4.0 wat the fuck is a jeep without that? its bad enough chrysler bought jeep and ruined it by first off killing the comanche then they went and made this peace of shit. its just my opinion so dont get mad at me but i just think its a peace
Well, I don't know where you're coming off with the plastic comment. As for the new 3.8, it gets more horses, more torque and better gas mileage. The ONLY thing the I6 had over the V6 is that it produced torque at a lower RPM.
New JK Rubis also have electric locker front and rear, elec sway bar disco, and Dana 44s front and rear.
@Dwealdric actually the dana 44s aren't much to be proud of, they break just as easily as any other typical dana 35s running 33s or higher with aggressive offroading. Only difference is basically the c-clips. Yes they are stronger, but not by much. A ford 8.8 or dana 60 is a way better alternative, actually a superior dana 35 axle kit is more reliable than the 44s
damn thats is a cool screaming lizard. ive got an 08 Screaming lizard edition Jk Rubicon unlimited but they didnt stick a v8 or do a paint job on mine just a lift nerf bars and 35s this is really cool i did not know that they did em like that. if anyone is looking to buy one of these Grubbs Jeep in Texas is where i got mine so i think they should still offer lizard
Thanks for buying American - we stick together: F Japan! I have an '09 JK unlimited X; need to do a 3" and some 35s, but waiting on the stock tires to wear down first.
TJ is better. Straight 4.0 liter engine may take a little more gas but it is a superior engine. And I used to own a 2007 jeep wrangler x and it had too many issues. I traded it in and bought a 2000 jeep wrangler sport and am much happier with it.
ive owned both. i love my jk like i cant even explain, i have a 4 door though. it crawls so much better than 2 door jeeps. just get a 3in lift and some 35's and you are ready for anything reasonable to a little crazy
Hopefully soon, it's just returned from Idaho and the Detroit Locker Trail Tour, we are waiting for all of the pictures and hopefully video from the photographers on the trip. Stay tuned.
@OfficerSheepDog Shame. It was very cool. I'm not too upset though as I'm starting to lose interest in JK's. Probably going to sell mine for a 2011 Mustang GT.

Paint job sucks, should have left the bumpers black. Jeeps are not HOTRODS so get rid of the flames. Re-paint your jeep...

Because right now, you're coming off as just another internet pube.
