Well he was really good at keeping it running but he lived in Akron Oh and he must not have been good with paint because there was toothpick size pieces of steel holding the engine to the frame. When I pulled the motor the frame fell in half. I kept everything worth saving to build one day...

Reagan's would have Tracker PG. Little smaller than AT.

Have you googled "Jeep CJ Adventures Under the Hood"? BTW I have the guys spring special and he documented the mpg of every tank often getting above 20 mpg with factory emissions.

I don't want to nit pick too much but they are still not exact. Font is very different among some other things. I could tell these from Oem's instantly. That being said they are better than omix and maybe they will get even better.

Wow I'm surprised they are changing that much.

I live in TN and would say that you should start here. Ky jeeps have often spent time in Oh. It's only about 8 hours from Detroit to Nashville. When I moved down here from Pa I couldn't believe the difference. Obviously west coast is best but the South is way better than Uo North.

I have called them a few times on different issues. The two kits I have installed were off in areas. I actually had to make cuts to make areas work. Angles off areas too big, radius off. They are not exact replicas in my experience. I am going to try Austin Jeeps for graphics next time.

I like the look of a Supertop on a CJ7 but all they did was stretch the top for a Scrambler and it just does not look right. Look at a factory LJ top. Much better looking. Mopar got the extended look right.

I thought there was an end cap that was taller for sport sides? Sport sides had a taller bumper.

LS engine swap is 6k for 5.3l If you were really thrifty you might be able to get it done for 5k. If I was going to spend 4K to have the pro flo installed on an AMC V8 and I didn't care about engine brand I would spend the extra 1-2k and put a 5.3 in. I thought the Howell kit made the AMC...

That's a really good gun. I have one. I will say cordless impacts have replaced air powered in most cases now.

I have to disagree somewhat with the comments. I haven't lost money on a jeep in many years and have sold at least a dozen. The CJ market is as high as it has ever been right now. It's still not where we would like it but a 25k scrambler is sellable. If you can do the paint and body work...

Decals did a lot for that jeep! Nice job!

No gun safe in my house growing either. Learned about hunting and guns very early on. Got my first .22 cal at 10 years old. Never touched one of my dads guns without permission. Never even considered it. I knew the butt whooping I would have got. I hope I can teach my kids one day about...

I would guess you are going to get different opinions here but I think it could be cleaned up and put back in assuming the piston is still round and the wrist pin and rod are not damaged. I have pulled Pistons out of engines that ran that looked far worse than that.

Do you have a lift and what is your caster? If you have a 4in lift you need shims in the front. I even do 2 deg shims on 2.5in lifts.

A mid size jeep truck on solid front and rear axles potentially a rubicon version with locking Dana 44's would be a really cool truck. It would be different than what is currently out there.

I believe they could make something special if they use the wrangler platform and keep it off-road adventure type mid sized truck. A very functional truck. I doubt they try and make a max payload or towing mid size.

In for a few shirts and poster.

But it was designed by AMC!
