Casey Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Going to use it for muddin and rock climbing. My uncle does it after the crops are out of the fields. He has a few places where he has taken me. We have ramped a few areas and we got a lot of hang time. Hopefully I can find a old jeep that runs good and I can get it rigged up. Just looking for another hobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 If buying an older jeep, just please do one thing Casey, be sure it has good restraints and a good rollover system. My dad died 38 years ago this month when his jeep rolled over on him on his way to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 If buying an older jeep, just please do one thing Casey, be sure it has good restraints and a good rollover system. My dad died 38 years ago this month when his jeep rolled over on him on his way to work. Absolutely. Put in some good 5 point racing harness's, especially if it'll be a play toy for mudding and climbing. I wouldn't mind getting one myself to fix up when my finances pick up a bit. A nice cj 7 with a suspension lift and some 35" tires with nice wheels, racing seats and belts and I'm good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QDMAworks4me Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Sounds like fun, good luck finding your toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluelund79 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Jeeps are fun once done right (and expensive). I still have my 81 CJ7 in storage waiting for my son to get old enough to help get her going again, and Dad has a 94YJ and a 00 TJ. Black soft top Jeeps run in the family...
