  • My son just returned home from being stationed overseas for the last 2 years and the whole time has been saving his money and dreaming of getting and building a Jeep when he got home. It only took him 4 days to find the Jeep he wanted and in this video we take you one a tour of the good and bad things of this 2006 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon TJ…. Sorry we didn’t get and LJ, but we’ll explain why in the video!

    Thank your son for his service, and you too Sir.
    My Dad was Navy, WWII Aviation Machinist's Mate 1st class, use to ware his uniform as a kid.
    Very cool project for a father son. My son, grandson and I were going to take our Jeeps to SMORR's (Southern Missouri Off Road Ranch) in Seymour Missouri today, 100 miles away but 100% rain and 40 degrees, we backed out.

    6 months ago I bought a 98 Wrangler Sport SE with the 5 speed. 8,000 miles, one owner, garaged it’s entire life. It was bone stock when I bought it, never even had the roof off. I put some new rubber floor liners in, leveled it, put some wheels on it and that’s it. Super fun weekend car. It’s only a 4 banger so I don’t go anywhere fast but I love the thing. It was a great find.

    no need for a sye on the rubicons. its already done from factory. and look into the savvy skid plate system

    • @Motorep146
      @Motorep146 4 роки тому +3

      Exactly what I was going to say and recommend. Savvy is a quick run up the 15 from SD and Gerald can get him setup no problem. In fact, it would make a great video to get a the behind the scenes look into Savvy Off-Road/Racing. My last TJ had every Savvy product available at the time and it wheeled like a champ!

    • @JeepTJWheelin
      @JeepTJWheelin 4 роки тому

      Just thinking that. My '05 TJ Rocky Mtn needs a sye, have to replace the transfer case drop kit. Looks terrible.

    @matthewthiessen1049 4 роки тому +6

    Speaking from owning and daily driving a TJ and being 22 stay below 4 inch! I wish I would've gone 3.5 inch with a 1 inch body lift and tummy tuck. The 4 inches is great and all but it rides stiff and you feel everything. At least with 3/3.5 you keep some of that stock control arm angle

    • @phxamigo
      @phxamigo 4 роки тому +2

      Sound advice, I have 05 LJ I personally wouldn't go over 2" suspension lift, or else your in for horrible ride, I eventually went with Rock Krawler 5" long arm kit

  • @brandonallen4543
    @brandonallen4543 4 роки тому

    Congrats to your son for his service & his TJ! Your comment on weight really hit home. I just got a 2020 JLUR & added the usual mods: lift, 37's, bead locks, winch, electric step sliders, recovery kit, ARB twin compressor, jack, etc. My point being that my stock 4450 lb rig is likely now 1,000 lbs heavier! I may need to rethink what I carry with me on the trail.

    Congrats on the Jeep! Extremely clean Tj’s are a hard find these days. Theres a lot youll have to change to get 35’s such as steering and youll want better brakes but i think its worth it. As soon as my fax money hits Ill be throwing a set of 35s on mine. Cant wait to see what you do to it!

    Congrats! What a great find, in such a good start for a build. I'm so jealous of all the clean older vehicles you guys have out in Cali. Most of the TJ's out here all rot boxes by now.
    I also love the soft top and half doors, I think that's perfect for a TJ in California.

    Hi Brad !
    Awesome that your son is back! I hope you have a great time with the jeep build. Thanks for the time you put into filming all your great adventures.
    I use to think it would be nice meeting up out on the trail, however myself or my friends would feel a little out of place with all the super high dollar$$$ rigs you show on TrailRecon. There are more people that off road and overland 20+ year old vehicles than the High Dollar stuff! I use to be able to relate to the show, but that time is no longer. I wish you all the success in E3 and in your future endeavors. Thanks to you and your family for your service to this Great country and all the sacrifices made on my behalf and that of my family, it's appreciated!
