I am a Christian man and I married the perfect Christian woman for me; her name is Leah. Together we are raising our 7 Christian children (hers, mine, ours), 8 including my beautiful Akita. We attend East Valley Bible Church in Gilbert.

I am a Phoenix policeman working  for the Phoenix Police Dept and have been an officer for almost 18 yrs with 3 different depts.  I am a former Marine Gunny Sergeant as an artilleryman and Scout/Sniper and was a DoS sniper in Iraq with a total of 4 tours.  I also spent a year overseas as a contractor.  I've given the Lord plenty of opportunities to bring me home but apparently there's more work here He needs me to do. 

I would love to get out more often and run a lot of the trails I see people doing on other forums but they all seem to favor Sunday mornings and I'm not willing to make that sacrifice.  Once in a while, ok, but runs on Saturdays, etc are very much the exception.  Scraping money together saving for one mod at a time on the heep and doing as much of it myself as I can so I know how to fix it when it breaks.
 

Get to know him and your life will definitely be enriched.

Meet the Rig!

The Jeep is a 1994 Wrangler YJ with a 4.0L straight 6 and a 5-speed.  I bought the Jeep in '05 from another Marine while aboard Camp LeJeune for $1500.  It only needed a battery, soft top, and tires and it was on the road after sitting stationary for over a year in the NC humidity. It has over 190K miles on it without a single thing being done to the engine.  There is no A/C unless you consider a safari top at 70MPH in AZ as cooling.  It still has the dana30/35 combination and is basically stock but I have added a few items.  Currently it is sporting a 2.5" Rancho spring lift and 33x12.50 Goodyear MTR's mounted on steel wheels.  It has DIY sliders, a front bumper and a gas tank skid I picked up cheap.  I have also done some custom work with a sawzall on the front and rear fenders.

For the future I have some ideas that I hope to incorporate which includes a 14bolt rear that is sitting in the garage and waiting  for a high pinion dana60 front axle to match.  The axles will be set up with spring-over configuration, lockers and deep gearing.  While mounting the springs I will do a shackle reversal and a rear stretch to accommodate 37" tires.  Added to that will be some real armor, lots of tube and a 4:1 kit for the t-case......yeah, pretty much everything falls into "Future Modifications".
