    Bestop 2-piece Soft Doors for JKUR w/mirrors

    I've been to Salt Lake twice in the past 42 years...once for a Willie Nelson/Emmylou Harris concert in the late 70's and once to pick up a new F-150 20 years ago.

    Bestop 2-piece Soft Doors for JKUR w/mirrors

    These are sitting right where I want to put the Scrambler doors in about 10 days. Would like them gone. Come pick them up for $400. That's less than the price of the fronts or backs alone. As I've said, they are pretty much like new...maybe better than new since the required bends and...

    285/75 or 35/12.5 KM2

    Most JK'ers put 35s on their vehicles simply because they think it looks better...with no regard for the additional upgrades that should be made to counter increased wear because of tire weight, etc. I stayed with 33-inch tires on my JKUR (2.5" AEV lift and 4:10). However, I found the KM2 to...

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    Thanks. I've always been impressed with BedRug. This is a well-designed kit. It even came with adhesive heat barrier material to cover much of the floor. They make a lot of different Jeep kits. I'd previously used only their rugs for truck beds. They sell a front kit and a rear kit for...

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    I'm sure lots of folks on here use molle gear for storing items in their vehicles. I had Trek Armor seat covers in my JK and loved them...too bad I didn't feel the same about the Jeep. Since Trek Armor doesn't make covers for a CJ (and I don't want to cover up the pristine original seats), I...

    Nope...I still have them.

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    While I had considered Herculiner and bedliner, I was talked out of that by the guys on the CJ8 forum. It doesn't belong in a classic vehicle and could cause all kinds of problems down the road...especially if you get even a pinhole in it which would allow water underneath. Most of the...

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    I was on the search which turned into a rescue. The majority of our calls don't really result in the saving of a life....but I firmly believe that one did. An 8-year-old boy gets to grow up. Felt good afterwards.

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    The bed looked really bad when I got it back. It had been painted white with no prep work and apparently before the invention of masking tape. I just finished re-painting the bed, after a day of sanding and masking. Here are some before and after pix. I REALLY like the "Secure Trunk Box"...

    Three Classic Jeeps in Colorado

    The fellow who cared for my '82 Scrambler for the past 20 years before recently selling it back to me has 3 other classics for sale:

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    I'm not sure which photo you are referring to. The first photo in the Maze has the original Goodyears. The rest of the "historic" photos have the Mickey Thompson Baja Belted tires. The newest photos have the BFG KO2's installed Monday. Hmmm...I just noticed that the photo with my parents in...

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    Another old photo...taking the parents for a trail cruise on Independence Day...not sure of the year but probably early 90's since it has the Mickey Thompsons: And an interior pic taken 2 days ago...all original:

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    I haven't passed Ed on the roads since he died...though I've spoken to his spirit a few times. I'm honored to have called him a friend. He came up to my cabin numerous times to visit...and we collaborated on an article for Outside Magazine back in 1978 when it was still owned by Rolling Stone...

    A Scrambler's Homecoming

    I probably won't drive it again until Jeep Safari week. I pulled the rear bumper yesterday to have it re-painted (same color). The only rust on the vehicle is on the inside of that bumper, and a small spot on the outside. But the guy who stored it for me for the past 20 years painted the...
