Looks like fun man.....your pics look great. Looks like you need what, about

Yeah the front guard took a beating but on this creek bed there was no saving the plastic. I had less issues than the 2 stock JKU Rubicons though, so it was nice to not be the weak link this time.

I am now thinking chopping the front and more lift wouldn't do it, needs taller tires!
To go along with the lift and chop....of course.

The Guy in the Purple Rubi had two of those GoPro Cameras and was following me, so hopefully he got some shots of it. Shounded like **** metal on rock, lol.

LMAO that's what my bumpers looked liked after some trips. That was the main reason I painted and chopped mine. But since your not going to wheel it anymore might be worth getting fixed. Good luck with the wife bro at least when I dent mine I can say hey it's mine worry about your own LOL

Not Wheel it anymore!!???!!

The wrangler will probably only go out for the tough parks, I will not stop with the progress on the XK. It is too much fun being the oddity on the trial. There were a group of buggies out there with ROckwells 44s and the works, we passed them at lunch on one of the trails. Just makes me laugh when they stare and wonder how did that guy get here.
