Project TJ

Welcome to Project TJ

Project TJ was bought new in June 1996 -- the 2nd 4.0L TJ Sport on the road in the Lower Mainland of BC. Originally intended to be a pure commuter vehicle, my "awakening" to the challenges and tribulations of fourwheeling necessitated a change in priorities. Project TJ has developed and transformed itself to match my needs and abilities, limited only by my financial means. As my daily driver, Project TJ must walk the fine line of acceptable street manners versus optimum off-road performance.
