I pulled the valve cover to check for popped push rods but it's nothing that easy. It's gotta be a rod

Well, that's how she sounds. The stereo's all ripped out, and the headlight switch is in the new jeep. Someday maybe she'll be a stroker for ripping around Kittson County. Supercharged maybe? We'll see. It's gonna sit for awhile.

I'm keeping the whole thing. I've ripped so much stuff out of it so far. Stereo, headlight switch, lock actuators. Ok maybe not a ton of stuff, but it's not gonna be as luxurious as it was. I kind want to make a couch out of the seats with the front seats on the outsides of the rear seat. Idk

Right here! https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f46/pr...leanix-173577/

The new one isn't gonna be much. All stock until I finish school then we'll see about any big plans. Maybe the stroker will go into the new one... I've got time to plan

Oh yeah. I looked through the pictures on my old phone and almost cried. That thing was unstoppable in the winter. No block heater, no temps above -40F, no problem. I want to bring it back some day.
