PhilipsK-CJ7's 1984 Jeep CJ7

Thank you for checking out my CJ7.  I have been working on it for the past 4 years and it truly has been a labor of love. It started off as a small project, but I went offroading once and I became a Jeepaholic!.  I truly know what is means to Just, Empty, Every, Pocket (JEEP).  If anything breaks, I replace it with something stronger. If something stronger doesn't exist,..I'm not afraid to fabricate what I need.  I don't think I will ever been done, as you can always find something that can be upgraded.  Below is just a sample of what I have done so far, and in the following pages I have highlighted some of my mods.  I welcome suggestions and feedback and I thank you again for checking my CJ out.

I hope you like it and keep checking back as I will update as often as I can.
