Hello everyone! New member of BSS as of yesterday. We're super excited to explore some trails with you.
I am a second generation Jeep owner. I've been in them since the day I was born. I currently have two. One is a 1979 CJ5 (factory 304) that my Dad bought new. That one was his fifth and last CJ. The other that will be at club events is a 1995 YJ. This YJ is the seventh Jeep I've had the pleasure of owning. It has the 4 liter, 2.5" Old Man Emu suspension lift and 31" tires. Along with a 9k smittybuilt winch. There are a lot more mods to make but I'd like to get some input/pros and cons about them from some of you before I do. This Jeep has been a super reliable rig for us.
Looking forward to meeting everyone!
Talk soon,
Scott

Welcome to BSJ Scott. The best way to determine which mod's next is to wheel some of the property's available to us, but you probably already know that. See you on the trail.

Welcome Scott! Good to see another older rig on the trail, though, I don't recommend following Kurt or Dave until you have a blatant disregard for body damage and zero mechanical sympathy.

I'll be sure to make a note about Dave and Kurt. Thanks for the heads up! Check out this picture of a Jeep ride we were on in 1974. I don't remember where we were. My father's Jeep is the Butterscotch colored one on the left. Note how he mounted his Ramsey winch on the back. His reasoning was to be able to pull himself out and try again! My cousin's is the darker green one on the right. All of them had 304s. Best day ever for a six year old boy. Great memories!
