new EXP. vehicle.......jk

[LUISJG]

well,after giving it intense thought and after looking for a vehicle with low miles decided to pick up a new 2007 jeep unlimited, jeep green X. auto, 4.10 axle ratio. 4x4 offcoure LOL... got it for a good deal.
the jeep is going to be used only for offroading and expeditions so it
should last me a long-long time.
now I just have to get started on the modifications,,nothing fancy but
eficient, will include,

?..32,33,s
black wheels
exhaust relocation and replacement"need a little noise"
lights
rock rails
winch
bumpers
gps
roof rack "might need custom made"
eezi awn tent
vhf radio
tank carrier
hopefully a snorkel will be soon available

just got back from picking up in San Antonio,, so will have pics tomorrow

Congratulations on your purchase! You will have alot of fun!

Plus there is plenty of accessories to play with.

Do you have the rear True-Lock Limited differential?


:sombrero: :sombrero: :chowtime:

 

[Scott Brady]

They have traction control, which is very effective on the trail in the models I tested.

 

[LUISJG]

thanks ,
well it says danna 44 ,trac lock limited slip. 4.10

 

[LUISJG]

traction control also

 

[Scott Brady]

Yes, the limited slip in conjunction with the Traction Control is even more effective.

Great set-up!

Nice color to Luis, Congrats!

You are going to love it. The only thing about my JK purchase that I am second guessing is if I wasted some $$ going for the Rubicon. For 90% of the trails I travel the X or Sahara would have been more than adequate, but that 4.1 tcase is soooo sweet in the tricky spots.

Yea, you'll be really surprised what they'll do without the lockers. We played with it in Moab, climbing stuff without them, and it was insane how well it did without being locked up.

 

[adventureduo]

Very nice Luis! I'd like to build one of those for expedition use.

 

[The Swiss]

Congratulations! Great vehicle, great color. Looking forward reading your build-report. Let's see what you will do to convert it to a expedition vehicle. (so when the lease on my wife's Maxima expires and she takes over the Commander, I can get my JK Unlimited and just copy you )

 

[upcruiser]

I'm loving it! Congrats. Did you get a hardtop with it as well? If not, how are you planning on setting up a roof rack system?

 

[ox4mag]

Yes, congrats to you! Can't wait to see some photos once you get'er out on the trails. Take care, and enjoy!
