Briarcliff/Ossining, right next to the river.

We moved up here recently from the city.

Where in Stamford are you?

I lived in Pleasantville for a while and then elmsford! I know that area well. I am now in Stamford right near crabshell. I guess that's south Stamford.

We're at Crabshell every Friday - when it's nice outside. We'll probably be back again tomorrow at around 530pm.

If you see a lifted white Unlimited with 33's, thats me!

What do you want to get installed? Most of the stuff on the Jeep are pretty easy to do as long as you have a full set of tools.

I did the lift on mine with the help of a few Toyota friends. Got a little stuck when we realized that we didnt have a 16mm open wrench. But it was pretty straight forward, definitely easier than lifting the FJ.

I got the day off tomorrow, so i might beat ya there!

I'm not too savvy with installs, I can do simple stuff but I dont trust myself with the lift kit. Plus, i dont have anywhere to do it. I live in an apartment. I'd like to see yours with the 33's. maybe i'll see ya at the shell!
