TJ Wrangler pickup

Painfully lacking a pickup

When the 715 is 70 miles away, the MJ is 300 miles away and burned... what to do when a big item is needed at the home base?


I've had trucks around for the last 5-6 years now.  That's just long enough that I've almost forgotten that almost anything can be moved in a Jeep with no top on it.  It took me almost 5 minutes of looking at this roll bar and looking at the TJ, trying to figure out how to get it in the Jeep, without falling out and/or knocking me in the head. 

In years gone by, I wouldn't hesitate to drop the top and tote around whatever needed to move.  Amazing how 5 years later I am so stuck "in the box".  Ah well, I got the roll bar home finally, and it was worth the wrestling match getting it in as it solved the issues I was having fitting a top in a Jeep that had no business being there.
