New offroad shop in Winfield.

Adam "Mac" McBrayer-Jarrell is one of the owners. He used to wheel with us back in the day. Was a friend of Leadmon's. Do you remember him?

Is he the guy that had the rust-colored willys?

That's not a really bad price, assuming it's a warrantied reman. If they are just swapping in a used motor, you could by the engine and all the tools for much less, if you have the time.

What's your use case? Are you going to be WOT mud running or rock bouncing? You'll definitely want the 770. If you're street/trail driving, the 670 would suffice and save a little at the gas pump.

Yeah, I meant XJ. Doh.

Hey Kristen, when did Barry sell his YJ? I went back to the beginning of this forum (2008) and all I could find were pictures of his truck and the camo jeep.

Barry's photobucket is still out there... http://smg.photobucket.com/user/bigblac ... t=4&page=1

Beautiful! The prices though!!!

Agree. Had to replace mine once. IIRC, it's behind the glove box. Unhook the wiring harness, remove two bolts, slide it out and slide the new one in. Ten minute swap.

Welcome from Fairmont. Love the DJ. Don't see many of those around. You on the north or south side? I grew up in Mineral Wells.

That's what a CCW is for. It's self defense at that point, right?

BTT So what did you guys do with the track bar bushing? I know you told me but I can't remember. Trying to chase down the death wobble and everything seems tight as far as steering and suspension go. Only thing I can think of is the vehicle is severely out of alignment and the BFGs are el garbago. ...

Sailed it.

I pull the fuse in spring, and put it back in in the fall.

Airing down increases the contact patch of the tire with the ground, no matter what size the tire is. A larger contact patch means more traction. It is always a good idea.
