I said it before those were some of the nicest guys at Greene Country I have ever met.....I drove all the way from Lawton and hung out waiting for them to finish my jeep so I could continue my trip up into Joplin Mo where my parents live....They were super nice and let me look around at some of there projects...pretty cool stuff

I have no clue how they take care of their other stuff, but after a few minutes of a closer look at the JK, I knew they were completely clueless on the soft top. I don't think it's been abused, it just showed that at some point, they'd taken the top down and not put it up right. I wouldn't doubt it if at some point, the top probably went on when it got cold, causing some parts of the top to stretch, and the zippers were stressed. Right now, it drives quieter with the top off than with the top on if that says anything. But, once the body work is done, and a new top goes on, that will take care of most of the issues. I'll fix the little stuff as we go along. I figure in a couple of years, it'll look completely different anyway

I could give you my TPMSs that I removed, if it'd make you feel better

Hey now. I got 2 mirrors on the JK, 2 extra ones in the Garage, and the 1 1/2 stock mirrors somewhere in the garage too. Figured, the one mirror she didn't break may come in handy as a replacement for the 2-Door WHEN she knocks that off

One of these days, I'm going to have to go up there and meet them. Duane had nothing but great things to say about them, and they sound like the perfect type of people to work on our Jeeps

You sure I can't pay you something for that? I'd love to get that for her Jeep - add it to the parts accumulating in the Garage waiting to go on .

Where did you get synthetic rope for $199?? 3/8"? 100'??

I'd take it into Chris Nickel... I've tried numerous local places, and they are all trash... they just break your stuff or joy ride in your rig

I have just admitted that I'd rather pay a premium to the dealer and be done with it... the tire monkeys are irritating.
