Not for me, for my 5 yr old and 13mo old. So ha. Lol. I primered the rear area after some grinding and sanding. Will finish that later.
Also caught my truck on fire today. I left a rag under the carb since it was there for the last 3 yrs it got really dry and brittle. So I started my truck today. I guess the rag couldn't take the heat. Fire on. I'm freaking out, and all I could do was grab the hose and douche it down. Fried 2 msd plug wires, and the wire for my electric choke. Grrrr.

Try and get a mirror and a flashlight and look in between the motor and trans and spin it to where it looks,like its going to match and it should go in they are kinda hard but just play with it a bit

Anyone have a extra set of rear bumper brackets? I threw mine away that were attached to the stock black bumper. I thought my spare stock chrome bumper that I want to put on had them. I was wrong.

Woohoo! Committed now!

Did it crap out, or is the new one just ready?

You'll have to take me for a ride in it when it is up and running!

I think the steering may have just worn you out. When he says no power steering, he means it. I drove it a little and it was the same as steering with the Jeep turned off. Did you find and fix that issue, by the way?

By the way, mine is in the 6" range and I love it. Of course I have never measured...maybe it is so heavy it is more like 5.
