Nice pics. Sounds like SWB, 4:1, lockers, 31s works well. Looks good
with dust on it.

Nice to hear that a KJ could keep up. Still, too bad the Dakar concept
never made it. Sure, Libbys sell like crazy with the farty 90s body
styling, roof lights, and IFS, but there is a huge and obvious void for
a 4-door hard top Wrangler. If DC ever builds it (ha, as if) and offers
it with Rubi-type options, I'd buy one:

reason....the shovel was catching on a rock"

Yeah, what's up with that? I was tire-kicking a Rubicon the other day
and the first thing that caught my eye was that low hanging x-member.
Maybe its a trail grooming device.
