Hi,

Just got off the waiting list and signed up as a full member. I've got some experience driving off road vehicles in the service, but hope to learn a lot more. For many years my dream has been to take my Jeep to Moab and do the trails out there. Still working on that one.

The Jeep? 2007 2-door Rubicon. Larger tires 34's 285x75x17 (fit great on rims with 5.7in backspacing), Bushwacker flat flares, and Smittybuilt side steps (original rock rails rusted out).

Once I have validated that there is no rubbing on full flex (may require tweaking of the bump stops), the next thing to go has to be the terrible factory bumpers. I may go back to regular rock rails too.
