Hello ORTB! I am new to the site but not off roading! I currently own a 1989 4runner (1st Generation) that is lifted 4 inches (Procomp Suspension) w 33' Buckshot Maxxis Mudders! Defender roof rack w/ lights and high lift! My daily driver is a 2003 Land Rover Discovery w/ 2.5 Spring spacers and 32' Mastercraft AT2. The Disco is gong and getting a 2006 Trail Blazer 4x4 w/ Nav etc. I am wanting to build it slightly and use for daily driver. I like to do overland style expedition Trips with a few folks. I guess that sums it up!

That is what happened to the Discovery but parts for that thing are just too darn expensive! A domestic ride is a better option for me but I always have to be a little different than my crew! They all drive Cheaps (jeeps) and I just don't want to be another one!

Welcome. Maybe we can hook up when I get a chance to go back to TN. Windrock was my favorite spot to wheel so far. I run with Jeeps all the time as well, JK mostly. Have gotten lots of good response to mine and how well it does from all kinds of jeep guys.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.

Just want to say thanks for the warm welcomes! I was part of the midsouth jeep club and gracefully bowed out! It is great to see everyone so positive and willing to help! The MSJC just bashed you all the time for asking a question or anything! I just wish there was more of ya'll in the south (Memphis). I love offroading and doing anything outside so if you are ever in the neighborhood (maybe to see Graceland or something LOL)look me up!
