    YOUR dream rubicon

    Excellent point, I'll have to get one of those AdventureBuilt trailers or the like. Regarding malaria and traveler's diarrhea, you can take prophylaxis for each of those, it's hepatitis, rabies, and TB that you have to watch out for! You really should go check out that "lonewolf expedition"...

    Abandoned Scrambler

    Some people just like having something that other people want. I searched and searched for a 50s ford pickup when I was in high school (eventually did find one) however a local farmer had one near his yard and I asked him several times if I could buy it and he always said no. Seemed the more I...

    YOUR dream rubicon

Also, with the 07 and older, you get the bullet proof, tried and true straight 6 cylinder which Chrysler has...

    4" long arm VS AEV Highline Body Kit

    I'm looking for advice on a 4" long arm lift vs the AEV highline body kit. Both are about $2k and allow for 33"s. The AEV kit keeps a lower center of gravity, minimizes driveline angle, and the cost could be offset by selling the old hood and fenders. The lift allows greater articulation at...

    33x10.5s on stock Rubicon rims?

    I want 33 10.5s on my 05 Rubicon with 4"lift. Can I do this with the stock rims or do I need new ones with different backspacing?
