New From Huntington

Hey guys, just signed up because on JeepForums Pugulis referred me to it. I'm Josh, and have a 2001 Lightning, and a 97 Grand Cherokee. The ZJ is my DD and first 4wd vehicle. I'm starting to get the itch to do some mods so soon I think I will be ordering the new Rough Country 4" long arm kit. I dont see me doing any hardcore offroading, but I do want to make it a snow and beach toy. Anyway, looks like there should be some good info to search thru over here and its always nice to deal with a local group.

I dont really have many of my jeep right now since its stone stock. The Lightning I have lots of but they are kind of old and its getting a make over soon. Give me a min and I'll post what I have.

Jeep....







The Lightning...




couple on my old 20s...I have a set of custom centerlines to go on, just havent gotten to it yet.







Its got a fully built and forged motor, ported mustang heads, stage 2 cams, 2.3whipple, full exhaust, 18psi. Ported lower intake, and a built transmission about to go in. Once I get it retuned and all the little bugs sorted out, it should make somewhere around 625rwhp on 93octane.

lol yeah I know...I was originally going to get just 3.5" IRO kit, but my jeep has 130k on all stock suspension. Definetly needs things like new control arm bushings and all that. Rather than fight with them I was going to order new replacement solid arms. One of the guys on JF talked me into goin to the RC kit, just because its only like $200 more and he says it should ride, handle, and drive better as well as have better off road ability. My actual dream is to one day be able to climb one of those big ass mountains of snow you see in the mall parkinglots lol...Dunno if it'll happen, but I'd love to get that picture.

Hopefully I can just figure out how to install the damn thing. lol...

Thats a nice Lightning, you should put a long arm kit in that.

Makes me miss my old 85 F150 short bed. Only vehicle i really miss. It was an old in line 300 with the 4 speed and 2WD so it was no speed machine. But it was clean and i loved it. Primered grey with black Nascar wheels and 275/60 r15s. Sold it to buy my first XJ and got the Jeep bug. Every once in a while i wish i could find that old truck and get it back. I always wanted a Lightning or the Dodge SRT pickup when it first came out. Really nice Lightning man and a good Jeep to start as well. Welcome to OO.

Oh shit lol whats up man ? Will do. Yeah I havent been on that site since Dom went crazy and Banned Wayne when he proved he was wrong for wanting to ban me. In a few weeks I may need a set of hands that knows how to install this lift shit lol. I never did it before so I'd like some help to make sure I dont kill myself or make my poor jeep blow up.
