If I ever have $100k to blow on a toy, I'll be sending my defender to East Coast Rover for a restoration/Diesel Conversion..

Here is an example of their work.

I owned a FJ Curiser 4x4 for a while and off-roaded it extensively. It was a great vehicle on and off pavement. It would go anywhere a Wrangler could. You should also consider a FJC.

My best friend works at Manassas Chrysler Jeep in Manassas Virginia. His name is Viq google the dealer and email him, I'm sure he'll help you with everything you need to know.

I use to own a 2005 Jeep wrangler X sport edition last year.

Couple things to mention:
5 speed 4.0L 6 cyclinder is mandatory. I drove a 4 cyclinder and it does not move at all. The 6 was pretty decent until i got a 4" raise with 33" tires. Then i felt the vehicle didnt move again. Youll really have to push it with 33" tires to move.

If you plan on raising it, its a total back breaker. Not comfy at all for an everyday vehicle. If you drive it 30-40 miles a day I feel sorry for you.

Offroading

My mothers cousin has a jeep and he mentioned to me the vehicle will go ANYWHERE. Im like right right...

We went offroading with 3 jeeps, and the car will literally climb ANYTHING or break its back trying. I've climbed obstacles that day that I thought were impossible. Biggest rush ive ever experienced, to the point where my feet were shaking with fear(climbing trails where your tires are literally 3 feet away from a 2000 feet drop).

I say get a 2002-2005 Jeep Wrangler, they are great and affordable.

Im looking for one again, its real tough finding a clean one. Should have never sold mine, it was too clean.

ITT - Rednecks and their jeeps.

Wheres collins he needs to report in on his 1995 1' lifted bronco being the greatest offroad vehicle of our time.

I had a wrangler back in high school through college. a 1990 6cyl 5spd, was basically a sport edition but they didn't have those designations those years. that car was a blast until the engine blew, never was the same afterwards.

once the time is right I really want a rubicon 4 door version, that is if that is still offered.

Express · 03-17-2011, 09:34 AM

ya im glad i got the 6 cyl. im in the mountains and dont have time to play with downshifting to 3rd or 2nd to be on the highway.

anyways, ill get some pics shortly. only rust is on the pipe bumpers, and the owner provided me with the original ones too. sweet.
