Default new guy from PA



New guy from NW PA. Just got this 2011 JKUR last week. Stock (for now) with 78K miles. Its been 9 yrs since I sold my TJ and 20yrs before then when I sold my CJ-8. Starting the list of mods to do and waiting for warmer temps to do them.

That looks like a jeep that's been well babied to only have 78k miles on it. Buying stock is the best way to go IMO. If you want to mod is there's no guessing what some previous owner did. Time to make it your own!

Yep, looked at a few modified JKUs that looked good until you really started to look. Didn't want someone's problem child and my youngest son (13) is looking forward to working on it with me. Previous owner only drove it thru winter but it doesn't have much rust so it seems then took care of it.

yeah, about 30F outside temp is the coldest I'll work in the garage. Once I insulate and finish it, it won't be too bad but that doesn't help me now.

I've been driving by your town about every other year, beautiful area/state. Plan to take my boys out again this summer fishing in WY and MT.
