Always wanted to long-arm a 2 door long wheelbase Unlimited Rubi (04-06)...

Still needs links, tons, and a V8. The long arm setups eat bushings as the are essientally radius arms, that coupled with the front axle just being a glorified Dana 30 and a rear that is a c-clip semi float that is known to bend axle shafts make it at least to me an unattractive prospect.

I wouldn't buy a Rubi version for sure.. this is true. /sarcasm on I'd keep it totally stock and not think about one tons. /sarcasm off

Gotta pay to play, but I've got way less invested in the turd and it out performs the long arm jeeps I've wheeled with

While this is true and I love Toyotas, I have gotten a pretty good bang for the buck out of my JK so far. My only "real" upgrades have been a bit of armor and it seems to do what I ask of it so far as well as work as my daily driver. Now that's not to say I don't drool over built out old Toyota trucks for a trail only vehicle.

On another note.... is there a date for the annual January trip to Shiloh?

Okay, I saw that on the first post. But I also thought Baker was setting something up mid-January... either way, I'm going to try to make one of them. Even if I will be the only jeep. ;)

We're meeting on Saturday to talk about a week-after-xmas K-trail run, but I haven't heard about any other trips

K trail looks like a paint scraper trail all the way from what other forums were saying.
