[QUOTE="Mr. Bi-Polar, post: 431061"] Last we spoke I was attempting to create a build thread and how this all came about. So here's a quick refresher. In 2016, the wife tells me that Jeep is going to be making a truck and we couldn't wait. But after learning it wasn't going to the type of truck we're interested in. We broke down and special ordered a last run 2017 jeep wrangler unlimited sport. [ATTACH type="full" alt="2017_jeep_wrangler_unlimited_sport.jpeg"]117073[/ATTACH] This was to be a basic jeep wrangler but with a couple deliberate extras we wanted within the vehicle. Take note that we ordered the wrangler with factory half doors cause our last wrangler had full metal doors and we got tired of taking those things off with nowhere to store them. it's much easier now just to lift off the top half of the doors. With leg and back issue, I didn't want a manual transmission. So the 5 speed automatic transmission was add to the build. One key feature not seen in the image is that I wanted the jeep re-geared to the 3.73 ratio.

We handed over $10,000 cash had the jeep financed for the at 4.9% through the credit union. The salesman said the jeep would take 6-8 weeks for delivery. But in less than 16 days the jeep arrived as we ordered it. This is our story.. [/QUOTE]
