Hey man, Anytime you wanna go to crazy ray's just drop me a line, Junkyards are always more fun with another jeeper. I think I passed you drivin the other day, is one of your wheels neon yellow/green now?

i actually check CL like 2 or 3 times a day for jeep stuff...
weird though, because i waited like 1 week before contacting him cause i didnt have the extra money...

I think i need it more than you do...
Stock height - center of hub to bottom of fender = 17"
I have a 2" shackle in the back.
My ride height in the back = 15"
My leafs make a sad face

Now, my other problem, getting it installed...

After my 2'' rear shackle lift I sit at exactly 17.25''. Nice! Well worth the money! Someday I'll buy new stock leaves.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself and ask a few questions for the Maryland Jeepers. My name is Brian and I live just outside Annapolis in Arnold. I am new to jeeps but am a pretty good DIYer, came from a long history of VW's. anyways here's my rundown

1998 XJ (with a 94 4.0 I6)
RC 3" lift
30X9.50X15
Mild exhaust
homemade intake

I guess my questions would be

are there any local spots to go wheeling?
any local meets?
good local aftermarket 4X4 stores?

what's up man! Welcome!

Most of the time when I go wheeling it's with a group of guys from JeepForum - their "MD People" thread is more active than this one. I always try and post here though as well when we decide to have a meet up or go wheeling.

As far as "local" wheeling spots, there are none (at least legally). Most are north of us, towards or in PA. There's a spot called Trails Rd in Delta, PA, as well as a big offroad park (Rausch Creek) a little farther up into PA. There's some stuff on the eastern shore as well, but it's mostly sand trails.

We try to have a meet and greet once a month or so. I post that here as well when we do.

For 4x4 shops, I'll just give you a link.

Hi, I'm just outside point of rocks, MD. Used to live in New Market, MD. I'd be willing to meet up sometime, even though I'm in Northern VA. Just ordered me a bumper from littleleonard on the forum today and should be getting here in about 3 weeks. Here's my ride:
