Ry and
Matt's 2007 JK Wrangler Unlimited Twins
Ry and his
brother Matt from Pennsylvania get the
distinction of being the first JK's featured in the Readers
Jeeps section. Ry and Matt's JK
Unlimiteds are both X models in Red Rock Crystal paint with
soft tops. Ry's Jeep has a 6 speed and Matt's is
automatic. Matt's Jeep has 4.10's with a trac-loc.
Twins!
Ry's JK has
a custom
lift. From Ry, "We started with 4" WJ coils and cut
them to the height we wanted. Then we heated up the fronts
and expanded the bottom of the springs to fit over the new
perch. The rear springs had to be tightened on the bottom to
fit on the perch." Gotta love a new Jeep with custom
work. The
Jeep is fitted with a set of 305/75/16 Maxxis Big Horns.
Matt's
Jeep has a
3/4" spacer lift and wears 285/75/16s Maxxis Big Horns.
Below are some
pictures of Ry and Matt using their Jeeps like one
is supposed to. See the trail carnage images below.
Ry's Jeep
has the above the bumper fog lights, Matt's are in the
bumper.
JK Trail Carnage
"Took a fun line
through some twisty stuff. Didn't see the
stump/root/thingy. I hit it with the front of
the fender flare and it ripped it off. SOUNDED
HORRIBLE! The flare, well...it's ok. It was
dented and I pushed it back out. Kinda wavy now.
The flares are held in by small clip things.
Also creased the body seam under the rocker a
little" |
These guys are
having a lot of fun and aren't afraid of getting their JK's
dirty. We wish we could be out there with them.
Ry's old
toys...his new JK is his seventh Jeep by the way.
