[QUOTE="Skysthelimit, post: 1410948, member: 19077"] Keep it man, the upgrades you have to do to make it ready for the NW compared to the upgrades you have to do to a new rig to make it reliable, capable, and trail ready...Not comparable. The upgrades to your rig take a sloooow weekend to complete, the upgrades to a new rig to get it ready, or find one that is hopefully capable enough and already built and reliable...a LOT more than a weekend, that's for sure!! Buy, build, tweak, alter or custom fab a windshield for it, do something for doors, and put some **** over your cage to keep you dry (like everyone has said) and you'll be good to go. I always get such an adrenalin pump from wheelin' I don't even know if my heater works, never tried it. I have a '92 YJ and in the winter snow wheelin' I put a windshield on it, half doors, and I have an aluminum skin over the top front half of the roll cage (that is always on) and wear a columbia ski coat and I rock it like that while all my club buddies have their hard tops and full doors on, then get mad when they blow a big chunk out of their hardtop on the tight ass trees where we go in the winter.
