ohio roll call
Cadiz
Mark Kuryn, Cadiz Ohio. Not a jeeper yet but about to be once I start my om617 xj or comanche build. Mercedesdiesel4x4 are not doing any turn key swaps at the moment. 4500-6000 was a great price to. Anyone know anynother shops that do affordable om617 swaps? Simpons jeep family is in ohio but cost roughly 8,000-14,000

XJ is coming soon.
I just started working for a truck accessory company again, with an emphasis on 4x4, so I'm jumping in with both feet and building an XJ.
Can't wait to meet some of you folks out on the trail.

He tells me they used to drive their trucks into the river and wash them right there, with the river water.
We need to wheel together. I'll have my 33s mounted soon.

So my Father in law has spent his whole life in Meigs, Vinton, and Gallia. I showed him the picture, and he tells me, "that looks like the Salt river in Meigs." lol.

If I could just get my hands on a damn Cherokee...
I have a VERY tight budget to get this project started. So I've been searching the CL for a great deal. I'll join you guys next summer.

So basically, my build thread is such a slow work in progress, I'll wait until next year to post it all at once. Bumpers, winch, roof rack, tire carrier(?), lights, stinger, etc. should be good, starting next year.
But the 33's should be mounted soon so some fall/winter wheeling is in my future.
If you were interested, im sure there are many of us that have an open passenger seat. Many will probably even share in the work, and then you have "rain-checks" for when you get your Heep.

Score! 01 XJ w/137K up for sale at the auto auction in the morning. Wish me luck!
