hey guys today i bought myslef a 89 jeep yj, it has 3 inches of body lift and another 3 of suspension. it has 33's and american racing wheels, hard and soft top, but no hard doors, it runs ok, but needs motor work- just little things like the choke and maybe a vacume line, the paints not the best but i think i got a good deal for $1300 :D ill try to post pics soon

Jeeps are the best! I have a 94 Wrangler that I bought new and will probably keep it the rest of my life.

Wish I would have not sold mine but it was to expensive of a hobby at the time. I am addicted to them though and will get another one of these days.

It was an 83 wide trac CJ with inline 6 and 38" laredos, but sold it to buy my 400ex. Bought it for $1500 and sold it for $4000. not bad considering I only put $1200 into it.

cjpoole1,

Does your rear door vibrate a lot having that big of a tire on there? I have a 92 YJ and when I put a 31'' tire on there it vibrates so much that it drives me nuts. I am going to try and make a swing away tire carrier. I was just curious if mine is the only one that does this or if others experience it as well.

No vibration here, Ive had either a 33 or 35 on it for the last 7 years.
