Hello from St Peters Missouri

[5.56NATO]

Hello all,

I just wanted to take a second to introduce myself, I'm in St Peters Missouri just a few miles west of St Louis. I am currently building a 2000 Jeep WJ rig and will have my HAM license as soon as things settle down and open back up. Any question please feel free to ask.

Oh, and if you have a WJ by all means post up some pictures!

Stay safe!

Welcome! I'm not that far from you and am also working on my ham license. Once this is all over I'm trying to get a group together to do a run in Mark Twain NF. Welcome to the party.

Will do. I'll post in the Ozarks overlanding group on facebook to try to get more locals as well.

Long Arm kit, tires and wheels ordered up today. Time to start fabing up the bumper while I wait for the parts to arrive.

Awesome! Also, nice lift and other toys!

What are the next mods? You mentioned fabbing up bumpers?

 

[5.56NATO]

Install Kenwood NX-700 dual band radio, antenna, roof top tent and set up the inside along with bumpers.

 

[Molander]

looks great, excited to see the next step!
