I'll be in Delaware half of next month, and I'm working the one weekend I'm sure I'll be here. Then probably every weekend after that, forever lol. Good luck, though.

I didn't know people still played kickball. My family has a big game every 4th of July,but it really gets to be fun once the ref and most of the players are half baked. I wish I could still play

Mike, no updates yet on our secretive plot. Also, Green2000 offered to roll up there with me today. And chance you could be in Philly around 5 to provide an extra look and ask the questions I forget about?

If I know my MJ's...the front you will know what to look for, and the rear is a pickup...pretty easy stuff. The one thing to watch for, and I have seen it, is damaging rust underneath where the unibody meets the truck bed frame.

Other than that..it is a Renix, so there will be some differences. Also looks like there is rust. If it runs as well as he says, and the rust is not through, you should be good to go at that price.

LIFT THE CARPET if you can....

If you need fulltime 4wd..go 242...if not, stick with 231.

I'm with you on that stuff. He's a painter, so I know it isn't gonna be pretty to look at. I presume that's what a lot of the crap on the bed is from.
If there are floors at all, I plan to get it. I can replace floor pans at that price.

Why does everyone say 231? At face value, the 242 looks like a 231, plus an extra feature. so what's the problem?

The amount of aftermarket support and availability of replacements.

Haha, thought about making it mine but that would kinda be silly since I said it. And I know what you mean about wrenching on your own *****, a lot more fun and rewarding than wrenching on a multi billion dollar jet that someone else gets to have fun in. lol

And it goes so fast when dukie is around cause he adds lots of pretty pictures for us to look at.
