I was very confused when I saw the title, considering my buggy is a 97 ZJ and my name's Matt, but I didn't enter the contest, haha.

Very nice! You seem to have somehow succeeded at the whole wheel hard without a bunch of body damage methodology. That didn't work out too well for me.

Congrats!

I've come close a couple times to writting it off. Lucky for me gravity wasn't pulling very hard those days.
