Oscar the Grouchs build thread. the 2012 JKR

[oscar the grouch]

Havent done anything new to the JK in awhile. mostly routine maintenance at this point. Need to grease the undercarriage and swap the tranmission fluid when i get my garage back. My project trailer is coming along tho. the last of the parts to get it finished are enroute. then comes questions like batterys solar and the other missing elements.

84 tickets and our own section. it was quite a good time.

one of our club caught it on camera. Not the most exciting thing to watch but that was probably one of the funnest days Ive ever had thanks to owning a Jeep.

 

[Comanche Scott]

Right on! :beer:
84 hockey starved Jeep enthusiasts. I'm surprised there is still a roof on the building! :elkgrin:

 

[Geek]

Love your jeep Oscar - great build.

As a fellow 2-door owner - would you have a photo of your jeep from the side with the shrockworks top rack mounted and your soft top down?

cheers and thanks!
Ed

 

[oscar the grouch]

I'll have to look. I've taken the rack and cans off. Too much weight trying to tip me backwards on a climb

 

[oscar the grouch]

My home for expo east
