Another Hobby: 4X4

I favorite hobby is trail riding in my Jeep.  I have a 2005 Jeep Liberty 4X4 Limited.  Here is what I have done to it so far:

3.5" Suspension lift
Tires went from 29" to 32" aggressive off road tires
Aftermarket steel front bumper
Soft 8 steel rims
Roof basket with 4 Hella 500 lights
8,000 pound winch
Removed the back seat & extended the rear deck to the front seat
Fire extinguisher
First aid kit with snake bit kit
20 pound CO2 tank
Front suspension modified for an additional 1" lift
Rear bumper trimmed 6" for additional clearence
Full steel skid plates under body
Wrap around steel plate for the gas tank
Steel tube skid plates (sliders) to protect the rocker panels
Differential gears changed from 3.73 to 4.10

The way it sets right now it is 6" higher than when it was stock.  It also is a lot heavier!

I like trail riding the best.  Nice long trails with plenty of obstacles in it such as large rocks, mud, streams, hills and fallen trees etc.  I have run through mud bogs and they just get boring after awhile.  I have done some good off road parks that are set up to challenge your ride and your off road driving abilities.  If they are large enough they are a lot of fun.  Cross your fingers...so far I haven't broken anything!
