New Jeep came in…next up…hitting the dirt!

Obligatory poser shot…..

Long wait but well worth. My dealer was an A*s Hat but "Bradshaw" the Jeep is finally home!:coffeedrink::Wow1::wings:

Nice and leave it stock....

I was thinking the same thing…keep it stock. It's already so much more capable than my old Jeep that I can pretty much tackle everything I already did plus so much more. Maybe down the line I'll put 35's and a 2.5"/3" lift. That'll be years down the line though.

Old Jeep with stock Rubicon tires, IFS, no lockers, no articulation, and a budget puck lift. Got through that one because of the spotter.

Congratulations on the new Jeep!

I would recommend the mild lift, just to keep from hitting the undercarriage. I did a 4" lift and still hit on occasion, why wait to hit or dent it, only to lift it later. It depends on what you use it for though.

Enjoy,

Noted!

Before I lift it I want to get used to handling it on some moderate trails. Then wear down the stock tires some...then hit it with the lift and larger tires. I have to make sure I can fit into the parking garage at work..at least for the time being. :bike_rider:

Really slick. I like the all one color on Wranglers.

Hey Joe! The stock Ruby is incredibly capable for sure. We rented a 2 door Ruby in Moab a few times, and it did pretty much everything. The only mod's Farrabee Jeep did was remove the plastic bumper covers (those stock bumpers are enormous) and I think maybe they did a 2" lift. It's hard to tell but it appears to be a bit taller than truly stock jeeps. But the point is, on 32" tires we did everything except Metal Masher or BFE trails

Most definitely....It's a good feeling to be in a truly capable vehicle. I'm looking forward to going on the trails I wasn't able to in the GC.

Made some mods last night. What do you guys think?
