Default hello from NE Illinois

Kinda new to the Jeep world. Back in 79 mom had a CJ7 i got to play with. Mostly drove full size chevys since, 2 blazers and the last was a ext.cab PU. With working in the chicagoland area the big vehicle is really a PITA for me so I was looking for something different. A buddy of mine has a scrambler and a grand cherokee. He loves the scrambler for the summertime and it got me thinking. So after about a year and a half of searching and hemming and hawing, and a new GF who loves jeeps (keeper) I got my 07 JK Unlimited. Never going back. Already gone to Casper WY on a hunting trip and had more fun driving around than hunting.
So I am slowly fixing her up the way I want and I'll have a lot of questions and hopefully meet a lot of good people in the process.

Welcome to the forum. Most of the members from Illinois are from the Chicagoland area.

oh yes I can see that coming. Just built my rear bumper and hitch. Lucky for me it is out of scrap off of job sites. It's good to be in construction bigger tires coming soon as I can.

thanks for the warm welcome

Welcome to the sickness! Check out the Great Lakes region threads. Lots of us around and we have runs at least once a month somewhere!
