Hello everyone! My name is Jim, i'm from North Andover and I will be becoming a member of BSJ sometime in the next week or 2. You may recognize my Jeep. I bought it from one of the members here "Doug" and I am thoroughly enjoying it. He told me it would be well recognized.



Tell us about the mods you have made: I haven't done anything to the jeep yet other then change the oil, but it came with indepedent F/R lockers, 4" lift, BDS shocks, oil pan skid, 33" MT tires, Warn XD9000 winch just to name the really cool stuff.

Tell us about the mods you hope to make in the future. Dont know yet. It's pretty much where i want it right now.

How long have you been a member of Baystate? I'll be sending my app in this week

How long have you been offroading? Since I bought the vehicle(less than a month). Not too many trails I can access around me legally but I have driven it in a spot near my house.

Is this your first jeep? Yes.

Well anyways, I can't wait to see what's in store for me in the great world of offroading. Hopefully I'll see some of you on the trail soon.

Hey Jim, knew you'd get on here eventually.

Just a heads up...you didn't buy it from me, you bought it from Kelly. I only made it happen.

Here's something that may interest you...

Hey Jim! Congrats on the Jeep....sighhhhhh. Can I drive it!??? LOL....No, I'm not kidding! Will be good to see it still being used as it was intended, not just to go to the mall.

You will learn a LOT from the 101, and from many of the members here.Like any sport, there are things to do, and not do to get the job done correctly, and in offroading....SAFELY and LEGALLY! Welcome, enjoy and take good care of Kermie! It isn't easy being green!

BTW I'm pretty sure I named my green XJ Kermit before you! hahaha

I went to school at Merrimack College in N Andover and live in Peabody, let me know if you need any help.

I do realize that, and I'm keeping the name for sure!

Welcome to the club! That Jeep helped winch me rubber side down out in Moab.

Kermit is a cool name, but I've always been partial to "Jade Dragon Lady".
