Jeeping, Anyone else here?

[modette99]

Well the other day a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.7L Limited loaded came home with me. The idea is to checkout the back country easier with the wife and dog and now I can use my Metal Detector and checkout some of these old buildings in various areas.

I took the car out today with the dog up Mt Herman, and did FR315, FR314 and FR322. Probably will go out tomorrow too.

Just wondering how many here have Jeeps and use them???

[(( LO LO ))]

I love my Jeep! It's my adventure rig...

[Rooster]

ill load up pictures of mine tomorrow. i got a 00 sport.

[age315]

I've got an 06 unlimited and try to go when ever I can. There was someone trying to set a drive up but it fell through. I was actually planning on heading up behind Central City tomorrow to do some more exploring. Where were you planning on going?

[modette99]

Out by La Salle Pass/Wilkerson Pass...there is a very old wooden building...figured that be good metal detecting. Not sure with the weather though.

Nothing too hardcore right now, I need to get some rock sliders and that probably will not happen till Christmas as I spent enough this last week buying Sidi Charger Boots and a Offroad helmet...not to mention I have RMAR event and got to pay for the Cabin rental come August....oh and we are going back to MI in June so yeah I'm tapped out right now so no Jeep parts...If I am lucky i'll get some rubberized floor mats for the Jeep.

[Rooster]

mine use to be. but i figure its gonna get messed up if i play with it i might as well tear it up in a "better" way and get it done with. instead of ripping the paint apart and worrying about rust and all. now i got 1 of a kind wheeler that looks like a shiney turd. lol

Here taken on FR322 yesterday

[Rooster]

[Rooster]

[spdu4ia]

daily

[extremepaint]

lol this is pathetic the only actually wheeling pic posted of you silly jeepers is the new one on a dirt road!

i had the jeep thing for a few months, the burning went away when i stuffed myself in this toy taco



funny story too i wanted a jeep till this one day i was under my my friends YJ doin some skid plates and noticed the frame snapped into 4 pieces (rust) we looked at the tacoma option and have never looked back!

but in all honesty id wheel with anything as long as it doesn't clog up the trials

[Cat118!]

I do! Here is mine

[Captain Obvious]

Working on it. Have been rebuilding her into a servicable rig, hoped to have her ready by this summer. Too much work travel lately, slowing down the rebuild. BUT she makes it back and forth to the parts store, much better than the condition she was in when I purchased her.

[The Dude Abides!]

Mine, fairly stock, daily driver, dog loves it!

[dragos13]

Hell yeah I just got back from Moab Hill down on Illinois Gulch. We also ran Hotel Gulch, Balance Rock Rd and a few others









Let me know whenever you head out. I'm trying to hit a different trail every time I have a free Sunday.

[Finklestein87]

Lol @ the dog in the drivers seat. Nice vehicles everyone

Ahhh Memories, My first vehicle was a 87 grand wagoneer, 400 v8, auto, keg and matress in the back. To be young again....


Oh I miss the hell out of my yj.

[modette99]

Okay I owe a better picture now. My best friend in Denver came down as he wanted to check it out. So we hit up Hotel Gulch (must have missed you 'dragos13'), then over to Trail Creek Rd, then some random roads out int he 717 area, then hit a road that turned into ATV trail that dumped me on 717...I should of really got a picture of that...LOL I was like, huh I think the road ended back there and this is only ATV wide...and vam popped out on 717 (I debated whether to try 717, but I did not want to wreck the trail and know it well enough to know that a Jeep will not fit).

I am attempting to replace the differential bushings today. Made the dealer give them to me FREE seeing as they failed to notice. They said giving me the parts was a fair thing to do. I know I bought USED, so they did not have to do anything. This was Perkins down in Motor City area of Springs.

The bro's Jeep, last year when he got it out int he Gold Camp Rd area:
