    CollinsGTO's Garage

    well guys and gals, it had been a while since i've been active on here, so i figured what could be a better re-intro than a garage thread? lol so here goes.

    my jeep is the DD, so its got the baby 3.7 (yeah, now i wish i got the hemi, but oh well). it currently has 108k on the odo, and hasnt given me an ounce of trouble since i bought it a year ago.

    the day i bought it:



    a couple trail rides in stock form, highway tires and all lol:

    next up, Home made recovery points. this was my first try at these, and the quality turned out nice, however i need to redesign them with larger shackles, because the ones i used first time around arent rated heavy enough if this thing REALLY get stuck lol.



    notched the bumper just a touch for proper clearance


    RC lift and 245/75/17 bfg rugged trails installed:

    thanks! yeah, this is the daily, so very minor mods going into this one. however, i was just reading over your thread about the rock sliders in the steel armidillo thread, and those will probably be going on sometime within the next few months. i really like the look/function of those!
