Here is some interstate commerce for you, and a fun tale about connecting with good people on the forum.

@JP1 from Florida picked up his beautiful LE from @spenchey in Iowa where it got a Mopar lift done. He then drove to Madison Wisconsin to get some monster rubber installed before his drive back to Florida.

My wife and I were in Madison for the Farwell tour of Pfunk. The cosmos were aligning.

We struck a deal via this site and now I've got a brand new set of LE wheels for my minivan! After a bit of finagling, @JP1 and I got it all crambed into Dory....... Man do I need a truck! Too bad the stock rubicon suspension won't bolt up. This would change people's perceptions of minivans I think. You think the JT has breakover angle issues........

SWEET!!! @steffen707 Did you also get the rubicon springs and shocks for your build?

Sure did, and the stock rubicon stabilizer.

Now I just need Rubicon fenders and a hood sticker. Then I can be a poser. Lol

Somebody is going to be pissed that you have defiled LE wheels with the Family Truckster

Unfortunately those LE wheels aren't specific to the LE. Anybody can order them, albeit, they're $400 each, lol

@JP1 did you fall victim to the fender liner issue on the front drivers side?

i know, but it gave me the opportunity to use that meme and slag the purists all at the same time

Dory and I Swung by the stealership for my weekly Sunday JT fix.

Random guy inturruped my lusting stares to tell me he's seen the Gladiator at $80,000. Stop bothering me weird guy, you're disturbing my daydreaming!

Welcome to the resto mod world. Having come from an LE, these wheels and rims are actually considered specific to an LE! You are legit. It's like my wife going to see George two years ago on the same farewell tour, old ass sitting in a chair, but if she gave you the napkin under his beer it might be a napkin to some people but to you it would be psychedelic history napkin! See? Your LE tires are totally provenance brah!!!

Man that is really cool you guys meet up. Random strangers, from a random internet forum. Super frickin' cool!
