I actually meant to say I've heard of guys blowing out their d35s on the street rollin' on 31's. So if you want to leave it stock and not up grade lift and tire stuff then it would be all right but that's it

I've tried to buy Canadian whiskey in ny state before and it's not the same as what we have on our shelfs at the L.C.B.O. If you can get this stuff called centennial. It's damn good!

Haven't had a chance to get any other information. But at least my gf will see this coworker tomorrow. Sounds like the D44 is a prized piece. I think my little 2.5 has the 8" Chrysler rear end. It's funny to see a tow package on a 4cylinder. Lol.
I definitely plan to crawl under this thing, and take a good poking around. Hopefully it isn't rusted out. I don't think it would be, for all I know it's been out here where we don't use salt on the roads for some time. My Jeep has some cancer underneath, and in all the typical places. So, I know where to prod at the floorboards. Lol.
Driving it is definitely in the plan. Listen for random creaks, groans, rumbles...see if the alignment is good, or the steering sloppy etc.
The only things that I can see myself doing is boosting it a couple inches, and some slightly taller tires. Nothing extreme. I have the stuff to do a basic budget boost, but keep it low enough that I don't have to swap brake lines or get modified shifter yokes/couplers or anything like that.
Really hoping that I hear back about it sooner rather than later! I want to know what I am up against! Lol.

no
Yes
Ive said it before, if you dont know what youre talking about, keep it to yourself.
Especially with something this simple... Wikipedia even says it.
Another thing that annoys me, how hard is it to look under a hood and see the huge long SINGLE valve cover?
WTF?!
If theyre saying its a 6, then 99.9% its a 4.0 unless someone did some kind of stupid swap.

Well. I only saw it once, before it was for sale, and it was dark. Lol. Gonna be getting info today. Now that I think about it, it probably does have the inline 6. I only asled general questions...like you do with Jeep people...and I asked if it had "the six," not "a six." Lol.

Straight 6 confirmed. Larger tires, fender flares pulled. Was a fire department Jeep. Communicating via text through gaps at work. Lol.
