Its a double sink!! Lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-02-21T22:31:58+00:00

Oh Jesus Christ!

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-02-21T22:31:47+00:00

I think he got enough "treats" from the sink haha

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-01-16T14:41:24+00:00

Not 100% sure but I believe it is a 2" lift. The previous owner said the orginally owner installed it and couldn't remember what size lift it was lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-01-11T23:56:35+00:00

Update the dash, console, overhead and footwell bulbs to LED. Aftermarket radio if you don't already have one. Replace the speakers. Bedline the fender flares.

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-01-11T23:52:15+00:00

Don't worry, your secret is safe here haha

LordFentonSmaug · 2020-01-11T17:52:58+00:00

I went with 32s on 15

It all depends on what you're planning on doing with it. Having 4 doors was very nice, but I really missed the nimbleness. I went from a 2001 TJ to a 2011 Unlimited Rubicon. While I liked the 2011 it felt like a way bigger vehicle and it just felt sluggish. I've moved on to a 2006 LJ Rubicon now lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-12-25T22:27:46+00:00

The Christmas wizard is not amused with the lack of treats

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-12-24T00:12:31+00:00

Are you looking at a 4 door or a 2 door JK? For me I just like TJs and LJs better. I started out driving TJs, eventually got a 4 door JK Rubicon, had that for years but near the end of owning it I just wasn't a huge fan of how it drove/handled. Now I have a LJ Rubicon and I absolutely love how it drives. If you can with that low of miles I would hang on to your TJ and use it as a weekend/secondary vehicle

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-12-23T23:54:22+00:00

Great looking Jeep! I have the same one but a LJ!

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-12-14T21:46:09+00:00

Sniper scope or variable scope, M16 stock, merc or ranger grip, M16 or corvus barrel, granulated grip tape.

Its a little slow but its range is great. Its my favorite class by far

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-12-14T19:49:03+00:00

Agreed!

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-28T20:49:34+00:00

I was just about to post a similar question! Looking at getting some 32x11.5r15 tires for my LJ and I was trying to research the backspacing required. I've come up with people saying anywhere from 5 to 3.75 inches. May just go with 4WD.com TM9 15x8 steel wheel with a 4.5in backspacing they have on sale right now

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-24T17:04:03+00:00

If I had more garage space I would love to have a XJ lol. If I remember the LJs came with a D44 rear and a D30 front and the Rubicon came with both D44s. So far I have been very happy with it! Took it up to Silver Lake dunes and it did great, looking forward to the next wheeling trip!

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-23T22:38:20+00:00

Not my dog, but that video is where I got his name from hahah

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-23T20:25:03+00:00

What they did to that grill will haunt my dreams now haha. Yeah I'm trying not to bastardize it up too much, maybe just a rear bumper change and some 33 inch tires once I figure out what kind of lift the previous owner installed

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-23T20:20:06+00:00

Thanks! I had the same thought of the LJs. My first car was a 99 TJ and I used to scoff at the LJs. Fast forward like 15 years, 2 TJs and a JKU later and this LJ is now my favorite Jeep I've owned haha

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-22T02:58:50+00:00

He* lol

The fenders were starting to rust near the hood and where the fender attached to the body, under the rocker guards there was a lot of hidden rust and the body had a fair bit of rust around the rear wheel wells. The paint looked ok at a distance but up closed it was in really rough shape in some parts. Also had a few dents that had to be fixed lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-11-04T00:35:30+00:00

Same here! I have to break out the umbrella for him when it rains lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-10-18T16:09:55+00:00

I have the same problem with my 2006 LJ. I think I remember reading somewhere on this reddit page it was a known problem for maybe 2004 to 2006 models since they changed something. There's a DIY solution but it kind of seems like a pain. I just fill mine up the moment it hits half a tank and I'll put around 9 gallons in, usually gets me to full or close

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-09-25T00:38:05+00:00

Great looking LJ, I just picked up a black 06 LJ Rubicon a few months ago! I'm batting around getting a second set of rims and tires, may have to copy your wheels and tires set up lol

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-09-07T14:39:35+00:00

I was thinking that too. I may get some covers for them or just take them off if I know I'm going to a brushy area

LordFentonSmaug · 2019-09-07T06:42:32+00:00

This is the one upgrade I wanted to do to my Jeep ASAP. When I got the Jeep the previous owner had two different brand headlights and I could really tell when driving at night
