Thanks!

Would you go hunting with our "president" in your own truck? You will be seen in public with him.

Pics and places kind of topic????????

Not sure what to call it.

Places you been with in your Jeep?

Cool junk yards?

How bout places you can still go wheeling and not get shot at?

Maps?

Great place to stay at in such and such town?

Best place to get a chilli dog on the way to a trail?

Best place to get work done if you are out of town and need help fast.

Jeep next to some cool landmarks?

We all take lots of pics of our Jeeps and familys when we hit the road.

Dust them off and share.

Just us FSJ'ers here, we won't tell anyone else bout that favorite fishing hole. :D

How about an IFSJA Manual? I know that there is already the archives, but would a printable (.pdf?) version of tech articles that would mirror/add to a Chilton's type of manual be possible?

removing entire tops that are rusted out or to make a removable top...that would be sweet. I will donate the vehicle and top if I fly some welding guru/bodyman out here to the bayou to tackle the project and drink good beer. Any takers?

Just use the search function.....

Since there seem to be quite a few people here that are into trail topics, how about something different ?

GPS

What are people using ?
What do they like or dislike about the unit they have ?
What options are most and least useful ?
Vehicle mounted versus hand held ?
If you bought a new one, which one would it be ?

How about interior mods. I don't rember seeing one on that topic.I think that there are many topics to be addressed under this heading:

Seat swaps (I know)
head liners
carpet
dash mods and gages
cb mounting, wiring and consels
sound systems (speaker boxes, antennas, wire routing)
storage boxes
diamond plate (and other material) interior panels
Modified rear wheel wells (interior)
Adding center consels (floor and ceiling mounted)
adding / swapping dome lights and accesories
