Welcome to the forum. Me and the OrlandoJeepClub go to Durham Town Plantation in Union Point, GA for Memorial Day and Labor Day. We rolled in 46 strong for Labor Day. I know that is not too far from you. Next time I will ring you up.

I hope I'm not too late to this party...
Recently purchased an 06 XK Limited. Got a hemi and I'm loving it. This is the first vehicle I've bought in a while I've truly been excited about. I've been lurking the past few days and have already come across a ton of great info. Can't wait for you all to help me make this "mine".
As far as wheeling is concerned I'll be your typical weekend warrior during the warmer months. I'm in SE Michigan and I'll be headed up north (my fellow Michiganders know where this is) for my excitement.

So is there a support group yet? I may just need it.
hahaha it depends on what type of "support" group you're talking about. We're VERY supportive when it comes to spending your money and helping you modify your XK..... but only a select few of us have the medical training to support your in your time of need when "the boss" finds out how much $$$ you spent :eek:

Matt says it best, Just ask Corey.
Also be careful you might end up with Pink Skidplates like Corey as well.

Greetings from the Jersey Shore.. name is Jim..own a 07 Limited Hemi, loaded with all the goodies. Have the RC 2" kit, and a set of silent armor 265/65's on it.. Just finished plasti-dipping my nasty wheel with gunmetal gray :)
Glad you made your way over here Jim :cool:
I'm just up the coast in Jackson... so if you need help or anything, dont be shy. I also like to go wheeling a lot; but slowing down a bit until I get a new DD for my growing family (need a suburban!)

Glad you made it over here man!
Check out the Steel Armadillo belly skid and front suspension skid. Both of these protect vital components that are very vulnerable offroad. Next I would do the rock rails... from there its all about what you can afford next as the parts you're protecting aren't commonly hit areas offroad and are more cosmetic.
FYI here's a member selling a belly skid for a great price:

Do you have any tow points? If not check out Aspen Creek Offroad for from shackle mounts.

Thank you, I love the fact that strokeZ posted a lot about his modifications. A member on a different forum recognized it and sent me a link to strokeZ's profile. I messaged him but it looks like he moved on to the jk and hasn't posted here in a long time.

No problem, good to have another Houston area XK! If your lookin' for some legal places to offroad, there's a place in Sugarland called "sugar hill offroad", and there's also "down south offroad" right outside a Crosby. Down south tends to have a lot of participants with "liquid courage", and things tend to break, so I usually just stick to random trails around Alvin and Webster.

Hello,
My name Cody aka Chambec. My wife and i purchased our XK 2 years ago and have loved it ever since. Its a 2008 XK overlander edition with the HEMI. Out of all the rigs I have owned in the past few years, this one has raised its ranks to being my favorite rig. Although i have not done any mods to it, i have always wanted to do some major surgery to it.
So enough with the talk, here are the latest image(s).

Yea its where you put all your stuff in one place. It gives you a record of your build and allows others to see your progress. Also when asking for help we have a place to see the details of your Jeep which helps us give advice. You garage thread goes here http://www.theultimatejeep.com/forumdisplay.php?23-My-Garage You can look at some of ours to get an idea how you want to lay yours out.

Not a new member, but a new owner of a WK. Last week I found a 08 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with the 3.0 CRD. I drove 200+ miles to Indianapolis, IN to look at it and buy it. I can't wait to start modding it.

Hey I’m Mike I own 2015 Cherokee North 4X4 2.4L it doesn’t have the biggest onions in the bag but I’ve had it off road hunting fishing off the beaten path and up and down mountains over nice sized boulders and have never had a problem. I’m hoping to get some AT tires on there size or two bigger with leveling kit and afew not pony’s and I’m good. I find in the city stop and go is where I have problems with tranny. Lags on tack off or seams to wanna jerk through 3rd and 4th. Other then that no issues https://theultimatejeep.com/images/imported/2019/04/88a64417186966e09e4aa8d9806b42ae-1.jpg

New Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk owner here. I’m not new to Mopar as I have an 18 ram called the Blue Mule it’s a Tradesman Power Wagon.
A couple of weeks ago I took the family to a new entertainment center that just opened here. On the way out of the parking lot my wife saw a Jeep that she thought was cool.
We’re expecting grandkids to be hatched in the next couple of months so she got to thinking that she wanted a bigger suv than her RAV4.
I told her we needed to stop by the dealership and just look at them to see if they were bigger inside. She seen the Trailhawk and fell in love with it. So an hour later we were driving it home for the weekend. She drove it all over the county and we did the paperwork on Monday morning.
