Hello from Hingham/ Springfield

Unread post by Clarke6677 »

Hi there Clarke Robinson from Hingham currently a college student out in Springfield. Joined the club because I have not gone off roading often and do not know where any of the trails are but am looking forward to getting to know you all.

Bought a 2009 JKU in august it came with a smittybilt SRC front bumper and for some unknown reason smaller tires.

seeing as I'm a broke college kid modifications are going to come slowly but the next step is going to be a lift and 33s if anyone has any suggestions on either it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Clarke,

Welcome to the club. Obviously, you are a very smart student as evidenced by your joining the best Jeep club around. The members here are friendly and very helpful. Take your time in doing your mods. There are plenty of options that need to be considered. Research, ask plenty of questions and try to buy once and do it right the first time. Avoid rushing into any mod just to have it and then end up having to redo it later. That's a big waste of money.

Hi Clarke

Welcome to the club. Glad I was able to find that rear tow point for you. Enjoy the turkey run.
Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty.
