I don't get them hardly at all from the yupsters that drive the newer models these days. There are ethics that go into the jeep wave. The newer the model you should wave first out of respect for the older generations. I try and hold the tradition whenever I see a "square headlight" coming at me and of course the CJs. Warms my heart to get a wave back from a Willy when I see one. Long live the Jeep and the armed forces tradition that started the powpow of the 4x4.

Although I'm not sixty yet and I have had mine for 10 years. I do hope to get there, 60, and plan on still having it.

I have stopped around my area, unless they are modded or something. I will return the favor though.


My sister got one for her winter car up in Ohio a few years ago and she called me asking me what to do

Any recomendations on a good place to install a coil lift and shocks?

If a friend does not come through, I may have to have it installed at a local shop.

I will sell you a Jeep soft top for $100 if you are interested. The back zipper is stuck, but it is in good shape otherwise.



Wash it and then
Rub some candle wax on the teeth.

Good idea, any suggestions for one that has some teeth that jumped the track? I hate to force it, then not be able to get it back in line.

make sure that you don't have any rubbing with the 2.5" lift with the 35's. JK's might be different than the TJ's cause you need at least 4" lift on TJ to not rub. going to 35's you might upgrade the brakes also. Please don't complain about gas mileage once you upgrade lift and tires.
