It look's like the Scrambler's name is safe. The new Jeep truck will be called Gladiator according to confirmed leaks yesterday. I've had mixed feelings about reviving the Scrambler name, refusing to refer to the new Jeep truck as anything other than JT. I've always liked the original...

Scrambler prices took a substantial jump in the summer of 2016...right after I bought mine back. I was pleasantly surprised. I'll probably get flamed on this forum, but I've decided to order the new JT as soon as order banks open, hopefully in January. From everything I've read, I expect a...

I know the feeling. I regretted selling mine in 1996...so much that I tracked it down and bought it back 20 years later. However, I'm once again considering selling it and will probably regret it once again. I've found that I'm perhaps overly interested in preserving it so I don't drive it as...

I've been running single or dual Odyssey batteries in every vehicle I've owned for many years. I've never had a problem with any of them...so that's what I'll keep using. I installed the 34-PC1500 in the Scrambler when I re-bought it a couple of years ago. Expensive but worth it, in my opinion.

Was finally able to log into Expedition Forum this morning, so they appear to have taken care of the issue.

I hope the switch on this forum goes smoother than the switch to XenForo at Expedition Portal. I have been unable to log in there since they switched last week. I just get the message: "Security error occurred, Please press back, refresh the page, and try again." I can't even access help...

When I bought mine new in 1982, there was no such thing as a full hard (or soft) top option. The Scrambler was sold as a pickup...period. It was a few years before I saw a full top...and then it was an aftermarket top. I'm 100% certain there was never a factory full top option on the...

No other cabins in the photo...not sure what you are referring to. Castle Rock is in the center background, a sandstone spire that towers 2000 feet above the valley floor.

ask and ye shall receive...sticking with the snow theme of the thread...this was used on my Christmas cards in 2003...have lived in the cabin (built in the early 1930's) since March of '74. And there is a Jeep in the picture so the photo qualifies for the thread. A 2003 Rubicon is in the...

Hadn't driven the Scrambler in at least 3 months, so I figured it needed to be driven today. Took a short cruise up above the cabin this morning. Snow has been very scarce around here this season. We tried to go Jeepin' at Thanksgiving, but I started the Scrambler and discovered a leaky fuel...

I have an '82. Almost every time I get in, I reach for the shoulder belt. It's not there. Every now and then when I go to start it, I also forget it has a clutch. Thankfully, I've only done that a couple of times in the past year. New habits die hard.

When I brought my brand new Scrambler home in 1982, I had the Scrambler lettering off within hours. Never liked the hood lettering. However, if I get the hood in just the right light, I can still see the almost imperceptibly darker paint originally covered by the decals. The only letter I...

I've had no problems with my RetroSound dash-mounted unit in almost 2 years. I feed it FLAC files from a Hi-Res player through the Aux jack. I installed an Intra-Pod from Select Increments because it holds an 8" subwoofer. Just another option...not a lot of space to mount a head unit in it...

Hagerty just included the 76-86 CJ-7 in their list of the 9 hottest collectible cars for 2018. Seems like that would bode well for the MUCH rarer Scrambler. https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2017/12/06/the-bull-market-list

When I saw this thread, I immediately ran out to the Scrambler to see if everything I had done on it since May was still there. Whew! It was. Thanks for keeping this great site going. Your experience just prompted me to back up my entire website this morning. I had no local backups...now I...

Thanks...just did a Google search and saw that. It was great meeting a few of the other folks from CJ-8 forum. There were 3 other Scramblers at Baby Lion's Back yesterday. As I was on the way down, I saw another one headed up. I wish I could have stayed longer. As it turned out, I wasn't...

Cool...see you there.. I'll try to get there by about 9:45 since I now need to be at the arena by 10:30.

Hmmm...looks like I may be the only one there. It's a good thing I enjoy my own company. I'll stick around for 10 minutes or so but will have to head to the vendor display at the arena to get drone shots before the forecast 40mph wind gusts develop in the afternoon. Edit: Actually, if no one...

:popcorn:

The Safari officially kicks off today. It looks like the weather may verge on perfect for the entire week...sunny and low 80's by the end of next week. Hopefully, traffic won't be as bad this week as it was a couple of weeks ago when it was backed up (stop and go) coming in from the north for...
