Jeep JK Resources

When we placed our order for a brand new Stone White 2007 Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited back on July 10, 2006, it was done with the complete knowledge and understanding that it may take some time to get. Having already gone through a similar experience back when we purchased our TJ some seven year before, we were quite prepared to do some waiting… but, what we didn’t realize at the time was just how much waiting we would really have to do.

With everything from a sway bar disconnect motor that didn’t like water to a newly designed BFGoodrich M/T KM tire that had a difficult time balancing and then a shortage of Freedom Tops for the Unlimited, it would seem that ordering an Unlimited in a Rubicon package was the single best way one could ensure that you wouldn’t get your new JK before the end of the year. In fact, when all was said and done, over six months would have passed before we would be able to take possession of our new JK on January 29, 2007. Was it worth the wait? You betcha!! We absolutely love this new Jeep and in some ways, I think the ridiculously long wait only made getting it that much sweeter. In fact, as some of you may know, we loved our JK so much that we ended up selling our TJ and bought a 2009 Sunburst Orange Jeep JK Unlimited X to replace it.

  1. I have a 1998 tj with a 6″ long arm life and has 35″ tires. i do alot of tail riding right now. I would like to move to the next step ” crewing”
    My question? ….. should i put the money in this jeep or get somtthing other and start over?

  2. we had a 2000 tj on a 6″ long arm kit, on 37’s and locked front and rear. it was a great jeep but, nothing compared to our JK rubicon riding on a 3″ lift and 35″ tires. in fact, we loved the JK so much more that we eventually sold our TJ and bought a second JK. that should tell you everything right there.

  3. wayoflife, thank you.
    I think i will keep the tj for trail riding around home, but will look into the jk.
    on the jk all you had to add was the lift add new tires?

  4. has any one purchased:

    Bestop Highrock 4×4 rear bumper with tire carrier, where tire carrier attached to tailgate, and the Bestop HighRock 4×4 Slider Step Black ?

    What do you think of them? I want to know the quality of them. thanks Jo in Loveland, CO.

  5. JK question. I have a 2011 jk sport and wanted to know what size rims wheels i can upgrade to without any installation issues.

  6. I have been following your web site and I love the stuff you guys have been doing. Great videos and really nice rigs. Keep it up. I would love to take my 2009 JK Unlimited out with you guys one day. Being from East Coast Canada, it may be a bit tough but you never know.
