Looks like I'm gonna have some questions that I may need help answering when I get to the things like differential and such but I'll get back with you on that. |

And I can't stand autos to jeep did make them in stick with a 5speed or a 4 but very few where made because this was the time the entire car industry started pushing the public towards auto in every car (more expensive to buy then stick) and I have been looking for a manual wj no luck yet (I've driven both off road tho a manual 1987 k-5 blazer and my auto jeep offroad I'd say auto is superior because you don't have to worry about sifting when you get in some bad situation it does have its advantage tho of being able to choose the gear you want for certain things)
