Angry I own a 2WD Wrangler...
And it sucks. I feel so limited! I just had to pass up a trip to Anza Borrego because I need a new front drive shaft.

After spending about 3 hours of taking apart one drive shaft for parts, then tearing down my drive shaft (those u-joints hadn't been touched since 98 it, took so long to get them out) to put those parts on, I find that the post(?) that goes into the ball centering assembly has been tweaked and ground down on one side.

I can't help but think about how all the stock soccer mom JK's are more capable than my rig offroad

If you haven't gotten more out of the insurance company than you deserve, then you haven't screwed them nearly as much as they have been screwing you for the past xx years.

Behind every hot soccer mom are 2 men: a lawyer who will take everything you have, and a broke ex-husband.

Yeah but the personal trainer, botox injections, tanning salon, hair stylist, makeup artist, and pool boy are going to kill your wallet.
