Hi everyone, I am also from Idaho and came from Planet 4x4. If you ever get the chance to see Darrell in action, do so! It is quite an amazing ride that he has. Now a little about myself: My name is Sherri and my husbands name is Jeff. We moved to Idaho from Florida 2 1/2 years ago and that is when we discovered the "Wheeling" thing. We had a Jeep Wrangler when we lived in FL but it was basically a mall crawler. (There isnt many places to wheel in Tampa Bay). Well, when we moved to ID we bought a 2003 Wrangler Rubicon. We met some pretty cool people at a place called Bucks 4x4 in Boise and I'v had an empty bank account since then. Here is a quick spec:
2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with a 6" Full Traction Long Arm Suspension Lift, 35" Toyo MT tires, Mickey Thompson Classic II Rims, Flow Master Exhaust, GPS System, T-Max 12000 winch, Wilderness Rack system, Chrome alli axle shafts, and more stuff... I drive a 2006 Dodge 1 Ton Mega Cab truck. Here are my specs: Road Armor front winch bumper, 3 sets of Piaa lights, 35" Cooper STT on Mazzi Hulk 18" rims, Warn 9.5 XP winch, 4" Trail Master Suspension Lift, Bushwacker fender flares, nerf bars, LineX bed liner, & Truxedo tonneau cover. I look forward to chatting with everyone and getting to know you. I will try to post some pictures soon of our rides.

Welcome Sherri,Jeff, and Darrell. Love the big wheelie BTW. I end up in Moab all the time, I am betting I may see you all there at some point.

We were just in Moab last month. It was our 2nd time there and love it! Hopefully we will be able to get there before next October again.

I have a question for you folks, I have been surfing around the site looking for brand specific threads. Do you plan on creating anything? We have it over on Planet, but so far there hasn't been much posted about what I am looking for. We have a new Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited due to be built soon and I'm looking for Threads here about what owners have done so far to their suspension, drivetrain, tires, etc.. It seems most all of the folks here are rock crawlers, which means you all have a lot of experiance with the kinds of mods I'm interested in. Where do I look? Thanks

I'm not big on the brand-specific talk, we made RME to welcome any & all. There's enough JK owners or vendors that are familiar with them that if you posted a thread, I'm sure you could get your answers.

That being said, I know of one member who recently bought, built a JK & wheels it often. Here's some of his threads-

Thanks for the link to Medsker's stuff. Looks like they are heavy duty rock crawlers. We don't plan on anything that serious. We'll save the HD stuff for our racing .
