Default Went to the Junk Yard today....

So today i went to the junk yard here in the High Desert, and cam across a few cherokees... some in auctally decent shape... So i got my window cranks, switchs, and a peice of dash i was missing... Here was the one i got my stuff off of...






And then i saw one that looked like it had a lift! i was like OH man does it have some lift coils? So i kick the tire that was resting on it away... and looked closer...





LOLOLOLOL:surrend er:


I was like WHOA! never seen that before!


Ima go back next weekend and maybe get the tow hooks off one they had and a rear door handle.
