Off-Road Ranger I
I should have bought a Jeep a LOOOOONNGGG time ago...
My Jeeps name is "Rocko," as he spent much of his early years with my family and me on Rock Creek Road (same Road to South Bald Mt. entrance). I have done all the work to him myself and learned a lot, donated some blood, sweat and tears to him, in return for great memories, experiences, family fun and the most enjoyment I have ever had in a vehicle in my life.
-2012 Jeep JK Unlimited Sport
-3.6L
-Automatic
-Installed Tow Hitch to pull my Tent Trailer and Search and Rescue trailers as needed
-9500 Smittybilt XRC Winch
-Homemade front stubby bumper (not sexy, but functional)
-No rear Bumper (I maaaayyyyy have scared up the stock one on the "Bumper Buster" at Bald Mt. and just took it off, maybe.)
-OR Fab Tire Carrier (with mount for shovel, axe, CB Antenna, 5gal Gas Can, Ammo Box (full of parts, gas equipment and tools)
-Front LED flood lights in front bumper (wired to stock fog light switch on column)
-Windshield Pillar front Spot lights
-CB Antenna
-Custom relay/fuse box under hood (made from a water tight sandwich box for accessories)
-RockHard Patriot Sliders
-Rough Country Puck Lift 2.5" in Front/1.75" in rear to level the Jeep
-1.5" wheel spacers
-35x12.5x17 Max Trek Mud Trac tires on stock MOAB rims
-Custom Mikeybilt rear tailgate table (is posted in OB how to)
-AlienShade sun top covering front and rear seats
-Bestop under seat safe
-Chopped Fenders to accommodate 35's
-Traction Control Kill Switch (can post how to if needed, works great in 4H snow, mud or sand!)
-OBDII module that syncs with my phone for engine and vehicle diagnostics
-Rugged Ridge Cell Phone holder on dash (great product, cheap and effective for hands free)
-2000watt HF power inverter hard-wired to battery, under passenger seat (I lit up 14 strands of Christmas Lights in a parade with it! Merry Christmas!)
-Built Quick Disconnect Sway-bar connectors with parts from Home Depot- Lynch Pin, Clevis Pin and washers
-Roof Gutter Mounted rack for carrying extra gear
-Will be adding TerraFlex extended bumpstops in the front this weekend to help with my down travel off ledges and bumps....I am afraid I am going to put my oil pan through a rock
-Next.....
Now Pics in no particular order!
Bringing Rocko Home (He was a Rental Jeep in Honolulu Hawaii! Still had sand and red clay all over it!)
Did part of the Dusy when I first got it! White Knuckle the entire time! (Me in Middle)
Shuteye Peak in '14- Beautiful trip and scenery outside of Bass Lake, CA
Brewer Lake in '15
Red Lake '16
Front stubby bumper, LEDs and Winch
My parking spot at work
My Pop driving it and me worrying he may not bring it back!
....I realize now,I need some better Glamour Shots of my Jeep! HAHA
Thanks for looking at Rocko.
