    Was asking another member about certain parts he's using on his Jeep. No reason to quote me on this thread. Dude...keep me out of your stupid ass uneducated posts ok. I have a tendency of over reacting. Lolll. And you don't want to get on my bad side. But If I knew as much as you think you know. I'd have a 145 IQ. Over reaction....Maybe... But very much understated. Don't get me started dude. How old are you?? Im done for now. :cool:.

    No reason to get butt hurt tuff guy. You did reference me in the quote.

    Never said I know it all. Just giving my input from experience and trying to help.

    Had I taken the advice here one year ago just as what is being said on this thread I would have never gotten the 15s I wanted.

    Take your meds and stfu.

    Knock it off. You quoted Bob, and came off hard, knocking the input of those with more first hand knowledge. Just because something might work, doesn't make it the correct, safest, or best methid.

    Whoa! Did I miss some joke or sarcasm? It's just jeepers getting together at the campfire making suggestions to improve our jeeps. Share and learn something as we all don't know it all or have sage knowledge of all things jeep-related. Anyway I hope all feelings recover and we can jeep-on!

    Yea I guess that part was uncalled for.

    Just feel like this guy has been hounding me. Always mentioning the 420 in my name. Whatever that means.

    420 was my dad's racecar number before he died in a fiery crash.

    Bob is a really friendly guy, and only jokes with folks. Many times it's hard to decipher the person's intentions in text, so ask if in doubt. The "420" comments are simple jokes about marijuana. It's LEO code, and is just being funny about it. If it bugs ya, say so. Nobody on here is out to be an intentional dick, and if anything is a touchy aubject, say so, and it will be dropped. :bikewheelie2:

    I broke a feeling years ago, and had to get one off Amazon. It's made in China, but seems to be working fine. I keep my last feeling locked in the closet.

    And there it shall remain.....

    Feelings, nothing more than feelings,
    Trying to forget my feelings of love.
    Teardrops rolling down on my face,
    Trying to forget my feelings of love.
    Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
    I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again.:anonymous:
