Ive been watching the forums for a while, but i never posted here, so i might as well. Ive been trying to make it to something for over a year now, but between work and night classes at Three Rivers ive always got some kind of conflict. I found the forum by seeing nice jeeps with JT4x4 stickers on them, and googling it.

This is my 3rd Jeep, and by far my favorite. I've got a '04 black rubi with 2" spacers and 32" duratracs. Ive done a few things to it, but as long as its my daily driver i cant do the lift and tires it deserves. I need to get my wife involved so she'll understand why i want to spend so much money on my jeep. Before this i had an 07 JK that i didnt really care for (personal preference, no offense to the JK guys but i prefer TJ's and CJ's). My first was a '96 ZJ w/4.5RE lift and 33's that i wish i never would have sold.

Anyways, Im always looking for opportunities to go offroad when i actually have free time, and im looking forward to being part of the club.

X2 on the stickers! Glad you got to post up! look forward to wheeling with you!

Hello everyone, just joined the forum but been around a few times since August of last year. I am a Cadet at the Coast Guard Academy and will be graduating in May. My hope is to go to flight school down in Pensacola, FL and will find out in March. I have had nothing but positive interactions with the club and it's members and although I probably won't be here in CT for much longer, I wanted to try and become a member and stay in touch with the great people you guys have. I'll post up a thread in the rides section, but here is my 4runner. 1986 with SAS from an 83'. 4.88 gears with Aussie locker in the back and Spartan up front. Dual cases with 4.7 tcase with twin sticks and 2.28 crawlbox. 4" TG lift in front and 5" in rear (that has alot of sag) with Bilsteins all the way around. Lowrange dual case xmbr with poly mounts. A 1/2 cage added to the factory roll bar. 35" BFG KM2's. Custom front and rear bumpers. LCE throttle body and header to a magnaflow exhaust with a super ricer tip. Linex interior with masonite panels. Soft top. Bed-liner 'Fo' fender flares. Focal 6x9 speakers and Pioneer head unit. 4xInnovations tube doors (curtesy of Ed). Yakima roof racks.

I also have a 2002 Dodge Ram CTD with a few mods as a tow rig and an 18' trailer. I've grown up wheeling and both my dad and brother have 1st generation 4runners. My first car was an 85' 4Runner, and from then I've owned an 85' Toyota Pickup, 81' Toyota Pickup, 92' Toyota 4Runner, 95' Jeep Cherokee, 98' Jeep TJ, 86' Suzuki Samurai and now my 86' 4Runner.

Looking forward to meeting more people and wheeling in the months to come.

Love to go when the timing lines up. I should be at the March meeting. Could possibly have gone this coming weekend, but snapped a front axle shaft this past weekend in the snow pulling the dodge out so won't have that replaced until next week.

Yeah, mud can definitely be fun. Gotten most of that out of my system with prior vehicles, haha. Getting into the rocks and such now and it's great. Half the fun is wrenching and just spending time with good people, wheeling just adds to it all to make it even better!

Welcome Jesse!  A lot of us are from the Groton/New London area.  I have an 01 XJ as well, although it's my daily and not my wheeling rig. Look forward to meeting you.
