Hey all, New to Reno coming from Kansas City via a short stint in the Bay area. I inherited an XJ from a friend that passed, so it's my duty to go on adventures he no longer can do. It's my second XJ and is currently stock, but I'll be lifting and putting on 31-32"'s shortly. Looking forward to the great trails the west offers, meeting new folks, and building up a new rig.
Who are you?

Appreciate the add....
I have just moved to the Reno area and am really looking forward to exploring the trails in the area!! I am a beginner and willing to learn the ropes from the experienced crowd!
Looking forward to learning from you all and maybe even make some friends.

I was told a job offer will be extended to me so waiting for a job offer from Reno to hit my inbox. If everything is acceptable, I'll be making my way to Reno, NV from San Diego, CA. It stings to have to leave my hometown but I need to support myself and a fresh start is probably what I need. I've owned a Jeep for 16 yrs. Excited for a new chapter in my life.

Welcome!
Thank you Dennis. I'm excited but scared as I've never lived anywhere where it snows.

Hey there, I'm Allen Clark. I don't have much to say because I'm bad at introduction. Attached is a photo of Raptor, I have already added a couple of auto accessories but I guess it's not enough.

Hi. I was here before as BigNorm. Me being the computer nonsavy was not able to figure out how to reactivate BigNorm. I was probably most infamous for creating the Rabid Squirrel which I put together over the span of 12 or 15 years or so. If interested in that build look here https://www.supermotors.net/registry/16914 That rig has been sold to a friend of mine who can afford to put tires on it and all the TLC such a rig deserves.
Anywho, I am now working on a plain Jane 81Chevy Luv. I did my best to rebuild the motor but its spewing smoke out of number 1. So I'm kind of back to the drawing board. I want to do a Sas with a D30 or Toyota axle. I will be doing a spring over on the stock rear axle. I would like to do a 4 link or something slick in the front. Im thinking more prerunner than crawler with this build so moving the motor to the rear could be fun too. As always helpful comments are appreciated.
