Hi everybody

[Geepum]

He recently sold them all off and got out of the business. This state’s regulations have made it impossible to acquire insurance. This state mandates a $2 mil policy to operate and he couldn’t find one company to provide it.
I just joined cal4wheel last week. Waiting on my membership package. I was having those exact thoughts. The only kicker is I work graveyard, so I’m usually sleeping when most have their meetings. You are definitely a committed family! I have my TJ and last year I bought a JTR to pull my camper for the milder trips. One day it may pull the TJ if I get that far with it. I’ll definitely look into your club and see how I can fit it in my schedule. Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.

Welcome from South East Arizona. I was born and raised in Sacratomato myself. Spent my working years living in Sonoma County area. Now I'm enjoying retirement in the free state of Arizona! Looks like you're on the right path to straightening out your jeep.

Thank you! You remember the town that I miss then. I don’t how long you’ve been away, but man have things changed here in my time. I heard a lot of Californians are making their way to AZ. It was one of the places we’re looking to head, but it seems the property value has skyrocketed there too. All my armor and fenders will be here tomorrow, so it’s look will finally change for the better. I owe it all to you awesome people and your willingness to share. Without this forum I would have drove around thinking I’m some kind of tough guy crushing shopping carts in a parking lot

Ok, but don’t laugh. Us Californians are extra sensitive. The TJ may cry until it gets toughened up Everything black is coming off to be replaced with aluminum tid bits

Thanks! I appreciate the offer. I have a motobuilt front that I’m modifying to improve and fit my needs. The rear, I’m going the reinforced crossmember with tie ins and frenched reciever. Similar to what jjvw and a couple others did. With crack eliminator, of course. I almost have everything I need. I have an entire room of my house dedicated to Jeep parts. I just have to figure out how to get them out of the room faster than I put them in. Is there a how-to on THAT?

See @Squatch . I think he stores his parts inside the Jeep.

Oh my! I’d have to say that’s the biggest, blackest bumper I’ve ever seen!

Welcome to the jungle!

Thank you sir! I know you contribute a lot here and your build is definitely on my must read list. I’m 3/4 through starkey’s now.

Why didn’t I think of that?! Less travel, more burning metal. All the fun without the cardio! He must be a genius!

That is too bad. Thew graveyard can be an issue. Our meetings are at 7:00. Just let me know. There are a few people who get Nor Cal Jeepers together. There is NorCal thread in the forum here. I haven’t been able to join one yet.

Will do. I saw that thread. I’ll be jumping on soon. Especially if something is coming up before winter mods begin.

Nope. Just a hoarder!

At least you hoard good stuff. No dead cats under the hood right?
