Hope you don't mind but I shared your vids with the local Jeep Club. A bunch of them are giving our buddy Ryan crap about the 2.8L thinking it can't off road with 33" tires and the 2.8L. He's already got 4.88's in it and I personally "hopped" up his engine with 3.4L aluminum heads (mild port n polish, valves n springs), Edelbrock intake with 350 cfm 2bbl and mild cam. Their replies were priceless. Lol

I am redoing my headliner today and want to install an OHC. How do i attach this bracket to the celing? Does anyone have instructions with pictures for hooking up the wiring harness? I have searched but can only find written instructions and i am a visual learner. Thanks

I met you a LONG time ago. I saw some of your posts on Facebook with Gene and the mention of Zeke's wedding is what made me pretty sure, I had met you. I am Gene's friend Bill. My wife and I met Gene and your mom through NIJA.
