So what's up... new here... I suppose this is where an introduction would go so I'll assume I'm right

My name is Tony, I'm 22 and married(for a little over a year now) and moving from Virginia Beach to Dayton, OH with a job transfer... I'm glad to be getting out of the communistwealth... the beach is cool but I like mountains and lower cost of living better.... also I'll be much closer to some really good offroading... right now I gotta drive about 6 hours to get to Uwharrie National Forest, which isn't really crazy... I did everything there on 33s with open diffs. Crozet is kinda close but it's not open year round.

If you're on Jeep Forum or Pirate 4x4 you've probably seen my build up, but I got it bone stock 3 years ago, since then it went through a 3" lift and 33s with a bunch of bolt-ons, then I got a welder(after reading KirbyIV's build on PBB) and went to town... now it's on 1 tons and 40s.

I'll be moving to the West Carrollton area the weekend of September 18th-19th... for a short while I'm going to be daily driving my Jeep... I know there are no state inspections or anything in Ohio, but I do know there are some bumper height laws(which I am over)... does anyone really care about that and pull you guys over for stuff like that? I'm at just under 29" in the front and I think 28" in the back.

My wife Shaynea(pronounced Shay-nuh)

We've got an apartment set to move into, we're hoping to get a house some time after winter so I can have a place to work on my Jeep in. I've got to put my big tool box and press and some other stuff into storage until then:(

edit: I've got all the tools and knowledge and experience for regearing diffs(primarily experience with Dana and Chrysler differentials in particular) in case anyone may find that useful ;)
