Hey there

Nice to see new faces
Me and my dad had a cherokee laredo 1991 thought, It had 4 1/2 inch lift and 31 inch tires, It was a good day to day driver and was good off road.

I will be at Adams Jeep in Aberdeen on the 16 of June for the car crush

Going to be wheeling this weekend??

Timmy,

Jessie I was saying 500 for all the parts you need except the tires and Tow hooks. So far all have found are the ones the dealership sells that thats almost 200 bucks alone.

car crush sounds cool.
I've never heard of it.

I found a set of tow hools for 75. If I can remember where.

Ok Of course I can't find it now.
I am still looking.
Here's one but it looks more like the price range you were talking about.

Can these be installed at home? Do you need any special tools?
I am hoping my son could put them on for me.
I'll get back to you as soon as I find it.

Subject: My first ride Sun May 27, 2007 7:26 am

Went out to the levees in Chesapeake City with Patty and Veronica.
Oh my God!
That was more fun than anything I have ever done.
Of course I got stuck in my totally stock car.
I am sure this is exactly what I looked like driving2

Had my husband and baby in the car, what could be better.
I am hooked.
Can't wait to hook up with you guys on a trail ride.
Already looking for a Wrangler to really play around in.
If anyone hears of any good deals keep me in mind.
I am looking for one that is already done and ready for off-road.
If I can figure out how to put up pictures so mewhere I will let you guys know.
Thanks for all you great advice and help.

Levees? Hmm Whats the deal on them? I'm new to this too and was looking for some local places to do some light playing and practicing.

It's a place in cecil county, md and into delaware.
You can ride through mud, sand rocks dirt.
Mostly what I saw was my level-beginner stuff.
I am sure there is more there.
It is great fun.
