Any Jeepers in here?

[lovemachine]

LMFAO!!!

You know it's true!

 

[jeremy]

You know it's true!

Yup, yes I do.

That's why I have a CJ and not one of the Wranglers...

Uh, hate to break it to ya. The CJ was just them practicing before they made the Wranglers

 

[lovemachine]

I love my TJ.

Saying that, I'd love to buy an old CJ and have it be primarily for off road.

I also want an old Willys to drive around town.

I'm also really starting to like the new 4-door Wranglers.

And now, my wife is trying to talk me into finding a way to trade her G6 for a new Jeep Grand Cherokee.....

My Wife has a 4 Door JK Sahara, I tried to get a Rubi she said NO, and it is an AWESOME Product.

It has been a pretty cool toy, like the 3 times I have gotten to drive it...

Nah she just sees the way I beat the crap out of the CJ, and still realizes she is still paying for the JK...

Well technically you are required to have 2 mirrors on a vehicle. So if you take the doors off an XJ you legally are suppose to mount a second mirror. I have never heard of someone getting pulled over for having 1 mirror though.

In Indiana, you are only required to have 1 mirror

P.S.

I own a Jeep cHEROkee.

I think if you dig a little further, you will find out the IC says one Interior Mirror and one Exterior Mirror mounted on the left of the vehicle...

Put two mirrors on it so you don't have to deal with those who might not know the law like they think they do.

BTW I drive a GRAND Cherokee, because after 40 food tastes really good........... and I wanna get to it no matter the weather (grocery store in blizzard or hauling a deer out of the woods).

Bigger rig, more food

Carry lots more than those bone rattling no heat CJ5's I drove for years.

 

[sbsg2005]

I really want to try to take my doors off.
I wonder if I'd still get pulled over...

Any idea on the ticket cost?

Got a buddy that wheels a Toyota 4 Runner without doors and while he has been ticketed and impounded for things ranging from having lights that were missing to driving it with a destroyed windshield he has never been ticketed for not having doors or mirrors. Fact is there is no way doors would ever go back on his rig it's been rolled twice and bounced of who knows how many tree's.

I got a newer jeep a couple weeks ago. Not sure how well she fits in this thread though.

The day I got her.

As of yesterday. (horrible picture the window tinter sent me)

I'm not trying to be a smartass.
With all due respect, most of the other states law codes were specific about needing left/right side mirrors. Indiana's code is not.

Well good to know that you only need one mirror in IN. I always error on the side of caution when dealing with law enforcement thus my statement about needing 2 mirrors.

So take the doors off and enjoy. I know that guys have some issues getting the doors to align when they put them back on. I have seen other hinges retro-fit to XJ's to fix the sagging doors.

I have several buddies here in Ft Wayne that run doorless on XJs and ZJs, none have been hassled yet
