Matt


« on: July 26, 2008, 08:29:37 AM »

I'm Matt and I'm from Philadelphia, pa, but live in northern San Deigo. My rig is a 07 JK, Puke green. It runs 315/12.50 16R pro comp xterrian tires on pro comp alloys and sits on a 4" super lift with bilstein shocks. I have front and rear bumpers made by Chris over at Lod in Indiana, who is a great guy to work with. I broke down and got a power plant winch from warn finally. Have yet to change any gearing or get diff covers, but It's in the works as soon as i can get someone to show me. (I'd rather learn first hand, then pay $1500 to a shop). I have a basic air aide CAI. I also have bushwacker fender flares and OR FAB rock tube doors.

I'm newer to this socal off roading style, back home it's all mud and trees, rain and snow. I've yet to see any of that here.

That it in a nut shell, I have other mod/adds, but I'll remember later. See ya at fiesta.

These are a bit older, but my wife drives a tercel and loves it, so while she was away i found an abandoned one, it's been sitting for a few years. So i climbed the front of it, and sent her a text with the picture, so she thought it was hers'. She just gets jealous that I sometimes pay more attention to the jeep.

Hey Matt, Ive been thinking about you all day! I know that "Long way from home" feeling... I found the best way to get through it is to stay busy doing something... I cant think of anything better to do to keep the mind occupied than wheeling with friends. You have the rig, now you have the friends...lets get busy so when you get home you will be able to tell the homeys how you wheeled in So.Cal ~punk!
