Whats up! My name is Paolo and I live in Florence, Az. My first Wrangler I bought was in August 2010 and I paid $6,000 for it. Put money into it of course and wheeled it, but came across a great deal on a 05 Lj. So in Feb 2012 I sold my Tj for $11,500 and bought the Lj for $12,000. The Lj was already lifted and had 35in tires and what not. So I spent a few grand and hooked it up even more(I will post pictures later in my build thread). After I was done with the Lj, I thought I was done and was gonna keep it forever. Then about two weeks ago, my wife and I were on youtube and came across some Project Jk videos. After a few hours of watching all the videos we decided we had to have one! So I sold the Lj for $18,000 on Friday, seached for a few days, and came across an 08 Jk Rubicon that had 65,000 miles on it. Went to to the dealer yesterday and after a few hours of wheelin and dealin we finally brought her home. Hope everyone enjoys the build!

And Finally here is my Jk!

 

Getting ready to take off the silver decals. Just ordered black decals to replace them. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll order a 4in lift, along with wheels and 35in tires. Then later down the road get bumpers, winch, gears, etc.... Don't know what lift to get, but I'm sure I'll figure it out after doing some research on the forum! I will post pictures tomorrow of the Jeep without the decals!

 

Looks good man, I'm sure once your done it'll look sick, I like your builds, lots of good jk owners here in AZ, very helpful.

 

Those are all really nice Jeeps !!!

And, is that a Prowler in the garage??

 

Thanks man! Can't wait to get started!

Thanks man! Yeah, that's my 02 Chysler Prowler. Here's a few of pictures of it






And here's a picture of the Jeep without the decals. The black ones should be in next week

 

is your favorite color red by any chance? lol and a 4 inch lift might be a little much for only 35s

 

Haha! That's what everyone keeps askin me. On all three Jeeps, I got great deals on them, and they all happen to be red lol! Yeah, I was doing some research and just realized you can run 37's on a 4in lift. Still can't decide on a lift though. I was leaning towards the 3.5in Rock Krawler Mid Arm but I'm still looking. I don't want to get a crazy expensive lift, but I don't want to get a crappy one either. Of course all the good ones are expensive. When I had my tj I put a 4in lift on it and it handled and performed like crap, so I had put another lift on it. Don't wanna go through that again! So any suggestions would be sweet!

 

I think I'm gonna go with the 4in Teraflex lift. Gonna contact 4 Wheel Parts tomorrow. Hopefully I can get it in sometime this week!

 

Nice choice in color.

 

Thanks! Same to you!
