    Defenders are great! After spending 2 years in Australia, really made me wish they still made those for the US.

    Do you "wheel" those? Any good spots on the East Coast?

    I hauled mine ('06 Rubicon on 33's) to Moab, Utah, a few years ago. Way too much fun. Just beautiful out there.

    PS: They look great.

    I have an 07' Grand Cherokee with a Hemi and wondered what inexpensive engine-mods
    can be made to wake up this motor? It also seems to be restricted by the exhaust etc....

    Thanks!

    I've been waitig for someone with a scrambler to show up. Of the "true jeep" body styles the cj6 and cj8 are awesome. The new unlimited isn't bad in the tj version but I haven't got used to a four door jeep yet( or a 2wd wrangler)
    Looks really nice. You a member of the Orlando jeep club?

    A gentleman caught me in a parking lot and told me about the Orlando Jeep Club and gave me a card. Someday I'd like to get involved with something like that but honestly, I have so much on my plate, some good some bad, that I just can't take on anything new. Right now the CJ-8 needs a new header and some work on the clutch to get it drivable again but I look forward to the day when it gets near the top of my priorities list and I can regain the enjoyment I've experienced with it over the years. :)

    Shooter, that's cool. Yeah, I have friends who are big into it. I'm not part of it though. Just know its a big club. Good luck on getting it running soon. It's jeep weather for sure. Been working on dads and he's anxious to have it back.

    Wow!!! Kind of excessive, but that's pretty cool. 54" boggers? They look huge.

    Who knows what all he is working on. He built his own version of Deadmau5's suit (apparently the real dance-Dj-whatever Deadmau5 loves the thing). He has his FFL and does modifications to H&K rifles to make them look like the military version (I think).

    His next project is a Space Shuttle made from vacuum cleaner parts...

    A few more of his Jeep.

    LOL! I stole the idea from Better Off Dead with John Cusack

    Lane Myer: That? It's my car. The Camaro. Remember? I was telling you about it before?
    It doesn't work. My little brother, he's building a space shuttle out of appliances.
    That thing's going to work. I can't get that out of the driveway.

    Nice! I like those wheels, which are new for '13 I assume.
