Ok, let´s start. I´m also in the JK-forum since a couple of month.
I´m 42 engineering technician from Moenchengladbach Germany.
Work in the development department of an automotive supplier and oil company.
Was a couple of times in the US and work there a short time. (Naperville Ill)
Had a route 66 trip in 2009.
And hopefully will do a trip from New york to Florida in 2013.
And even more hoping for 2015???? doing a trip to the famous trails in Utah and Colorado.
Had a ZJ for 2 years. And after I was fed up with all those repairs I replaced it with an Bright White JK Unlimited Rubicon.
Unfortunatly we only can buy diesels here and they cost around 53000$ with a softop (but with the large navigation package)
Spend another 4000$ just for a couple of 33" wheels/tires and a 1.5" spring lift kit. (and to get it street legal)
It´s not easy here with building a rig or getting parts street legal......:naw:
Also we don´t have any trails here. None, not one trail......
Altough we got a couple of old sand and gravel pits where we can drive.
So I tried the Jk once or twice......
Next trip will probably be on the 19th of May to an orv park in Belgium.
Here is a pic of my Jk at an old coal mine, storage facility of the coal mine.
It´isn´t active any more, so we can ride there a bit.
So that´s all for now.......
I just might start a thread posting the further work on my JK. And about the problems you get with such things here in germany.
I just can´t stop thinking of buying new parts.......:icon_crazy:
