1100 bucks, I couldn't pass it up. The guy wouldn't take 1000, I tried. :redneck: It'll make a good "street legal" wheeler since my YJ isn't going to be road worthy any more after the 1-ton swap. Gave it a quick once over, checked all the fluids and replaced a missing exhaust manifold stud to silence the exhaust leak, replaced the tensioner bearing on the power steering belt ("yeah, it needs a power steering pump..." me thinking: "uh huh, yeah, it's the tensioner bearing"). Now the 22re purs like a kitten.
Short term plans are to weld up the rear, throw a 1" body lift on, some shackles in the back and crank the torsion bars a bit up front, and throw my 36" TSL's on. When the IFS takes a ****, I have a chevy 44 and some late model rears for up front. I'll weld up the 4.56 third I have and throw that in, and some gears up front. I'll probably leave the front open until I come across a good deal on an ARB. Maybe dual cases down the road if I can find a good deal on a used marlin adapter, or maybe I'll just throw some 4.7's in the single case and call it good.
What a difference one day's worth of sticker removal, painting, and junk fender trim and liner removal makes. PS the top is red, it's just faded. :awesomework:
