I moved and had to get rid of my 1995 Wrangler about 6 years ago and just over a month a go I got back into the Wrangler game and purchased a 2015 Wrangler JK, absolutely couldn't be happier to get back into a Jeep and see what new adventures are in store!

Pathfinder I

Sold my 4.0 ZJ to an elderly friend who knows nothing about vehicles, consequently, his/my jeep is setting in my driveway with a broken serpentine belt. Waiting on my middle son to come up and replace as my hip is throwing fits. I loaned him my 5.2 till said middle son comes up here to collect rent on a house he has here. Afore mentioned elderly friend shows up a my place today. Can't leave as my 5.2 won't start. just hear the solenoid clicking. I have a love/hate affair with my jeeps, and as the adage goes, JEEP, Just Empty Every Pocket.
Update on the Just Empty Every Pocket. my 5.2's starter went out, now replaced. Put another serpentine belt on elderly friend's ZJ, fired it up and discovered a low idler arm is frozen, so will replace the idler arm and try one more time. I am still trying to put the rock sliders, snorkel and lunch box locker on mine.

There are alot of awesome Jeeps in here! Let me introduce another one of the seldom seen Overland platforms...my 2015 WK2, which has served me well. It has performed admirably despite not having much flex and smallish tires. And it also doubles as my 80 mile daily commuter.

Really like the WK2! what is the setup you have on it as far as tire size and suspension goes? any lift?

Thanks! It has the QL. So unfortunately, no lift kit can be had. And right now it's just sitting on stock size 265x60R18 Duratracs. Going to try and stuff some 32's in there in the near future.

Well it looks really good, and even just having more tread depth on the stock size tires helps a lot I'm sure.
