Hello,

My Jeep is a 1998 TJ Wrangler SE with a 2.5 4 cylinder low output engine. I bought it new in 1998 and have loved it dearly since. We live way deep in the backwoods of Jadwin, Missouri and this Wrangler was looking a bit worn after our move from Chicago and working here for several years on the farm.

The modifications I made were a flat "Hot Rod" Black paint job, adding a lot of diamond plate and moving the spare tire to the front where it serves as a "deer deflector", new seats, carpet, stereo, headlights, tail lights, new wheels, fender flares, interior LED lights (in purple) really too much to mention. But my favorite accessory is the Bestop half Top, now that is really cool! The top is a 'head turner" and is a snap to take the top down. It also reduces the number of plastic windows on the vehicle and is easy to button up when conditions are dusty or rainy.

The low stance and small tires make it easy on the 4 cylinder engine to take me from fishing hole to fishing hole in search of rainbow trout. All in all this is a perfect rig for me and it has never failed to do what I have asked it to do. Big tires and lift kits are great for some guys, I have been there and done that (to a 1976 CJ 7) but that is a story for another day!

Thanks Quadratec
