I'm actually headed to KC Powersports to scope out some four-wheelers. I'll probably buy a used one but I want to get an idea of what's out there and what features I'll want. It may not be a Jeep but it'll still be fun on trails.

Good to hear Justin. Did they ask any questions about whether you lived in an area designated as flood plain?

Almost looks like what Taylor is planning with respect to Exo-bars along wheel wells, etc.

Taylor: Your PM box is full. You'll need to clear some of the messages before I can reply.

You are dead to me now....

I was only able to salvage a few parts (the dealer offered top dollar to keep the Jeep as is)

4.88 Gears - Brand new, for Non-Rubicon ( I may be returning these, you can actually get a better deal by ordering directly from Northridge)
JKS Front Track Bar- never installed
Bestop Duster Cover
Bestop 2DR wraparound Windjammer
Mopar Sun Bonnet
I've also got ALL of the stock suspension components. ( I'll hold on to them and if anyone ever needs something give me a holler)

Let me know if anyone is interested in any of the stuff. Like I said previously all of the tops were on the Jeep less than 2 weeks. I'll sell each one for 20% less than I paid from 4WD.com

He also went by the handle, "Bama" and drove a nice Red Rock Unlimited w/ 35" KM2s.
