Watched some steam come out of my hood. Oh the fun of driving with a blown headgasket. Also it doesn't help when I have mostly water in there. Oh well I'm planning on picking up a new motor this weekend from a ho for 200. Going to rebuild that and do a renix to ho swap. Gunna gain me some 13 hp over my motor. Also I'm planning on getting rid of my brake booster for either the wj booster or a 96+ booster but that's all money. And I don't have much. Hopefully someone will hire me soon!

Other than the lack of SYE kits, I love my 242. Full time is very nice when the roads have a little snow, but not completely covered.

Ah they hve a good amount of hack n taps. Well maybe not an abundance but they are out there. 242 has its ups. There are times I feel the 242 would come in handy but for me I've learned to handle my 231 jeep in snow and how to shift hen needed on certain roads.

Right on, I've got a couple saved in my ebay now.

Are you going to use the fan shroud from Dirtbound? Only $50.

Hmmm, you just reminded me that I have some metal left over from my last chopper build.

What switch will you be using?
