Checkin' in from Milford

Hey y'all,
After what seems to be an eternity, I finally paid off my jeep and was able to start on the Mods. Responsible, I know, but in the last 6 months I jumped in with both feet and added a 50" light bar, spots, then a 3.5" Rock Krawler x-factor mid arm suspension kit w/FOX 2.0s, a Teraflex stabilizer, a Baracade Trail Force Front Bumper, Fuel Hostage IIIs, and 35" Nitto Trail Grapplers.
I already took my kids on some trails and both my boys giggled and laughed the whole time. I did some grinning too of course. Can't wait to hit the trails this summer and I'm hoping to join everyone at the Jeep 101, if it ever stops snowing...
I just joined this forum and filled out the application today, purchased a CB, fire extinguisher and first aid kit. I'm not very experienced with forums... I'll admit I use them to gather info and get recommendations, but shy away from offering any overpowering opinion unless I know deep down in my soul the recommendation is a good one. I will say, I LOVE my setup so far and the Nitto tires are really amazing!
I'm originally from Cali (don't hold that against me) and I've done a little off-roading if you count driving backwoods and fire roads to go slide off a dam or do some camping. I'm looking forward to hitting the dirt, mud, and trying out some more serious rock crawling, but am looking for some guidance. I want to listen to those who have more experience and have done the trail before. I mean, come on. I did say I was responsible...
Just don't dare me to do anything stupid and everything will be great!
Hope to see you out there.
