you should try tallahassee. everyone seems to offroad everywhere up there. just watchout where you go....at least if you got a purty mouth

where in florida did you find a hill? did you go to tallahassee?

as for low miles.... kelly blue book. dealers don't use it. they used the black book. anyway 12-15k is considered average yearly mileage so do the math for "low miles". i bought a 1995 f150 4x4 xlt reg cab 5.0 8'bed in. it had 166k on it when i traded it in in 2006. dealer sold it for 3 grand in 2 days. claiming LOW LOW MILES!

I'm curious as to what HORNBROD looks like....he and wahoosteeler

the parts MJ i was getting in exchance for a lil labor was stolen! scrap prices are high and we live near a major scrap yard that serves a steel mill next door. The wife of the owner called me today, and asked me when i picked up the truck.....i told her i hadnt....and explained the deal i had with her husband. she called him and we established it was stolen. i think someone towed it for scap.

most wreck's happen less that 5 miles from home.....thank god the family is ok. my wife has only had he liscence for 3 yrs and I'm waiting for her first accident and i hope it never happens

man you are blessed. CF is nasty. its pretty cool you have the net in your room. i didnt think hospitals did that. good thing too. we need our thred hi-jacker. lol. if you need to talk I'm here.

wow thats two here that are breaking down, TNT's back is screwed, now your messed up. What happened to us, arent we built like our parents? i know i need to get out of the profession I'm in or I'm gonna end up like TNT. regardless, Get some rest and I hope everything goes great.

looks like those little toy trucks they made when i was a kid called "stompers"

hey hey now, I bleed jeep, but lets not be too hard on ford. my 1995 f150 was one of the best vehicles i ever owned. ford knows how to build a pickup. and a damn good one at that. but opinions are opinions.

damn! i don't qualify... i have a 2.5 ltr

yes, that is because the white ones were built the best. just like how all the K-cars (spec. Reliant/Aires) left are the ice blue ones.

well the guy called me back about the parts truck today. he wants the bench seat and doors out of it and if i take them out of it the rest is mine. so I'm gonna see about doing this thursday morning. its a swb 4wd. with an auto so i guess i can't use the transfercase but i assume i can use the front and rear DS? along with the front axel . the auto is supposedly in good working order too. the truck was originally a 4.0. now as i said engineless. he bought the comanche to get some parts off of it for his comanche. the people he bought it off of pulled the motor for their xj. his comanche is a street rod with a pontiac v8 i told him about the web site. from the sounds of it his MJ will be a unique contribution.

i envy you, have a great time

that was an escort, I'm with ram rod... i think the back is a mustang

awsome rig. good luck on the stinker swap... wish i had the money to do it on mine.

if i did the conversion wouldnt i still have the same hp output? what is the benefit of doing it.

yeah, i don't want to do anything permanent. i was gonna use the factory mounts and carriage bolts

happy birthday to our "master of the MJ" i don't blame you for having a quiet birthday. ....getting drunk on your 21st is cliche'. Its much more satisfying to go to a resturaunt and confidently order a drink with dinner!

id like to see some wooden beds to see what i could do. I'm a novice at just about everything except driving. but you only get to do that when the vehicle is done. have any of you ever had a wood bed on a truck .... how do they hold up? how ofter do you hve to rebuild? ....bear in mind I'm in the rust belt.

TnT, ....love that idea! its a good way to butter them up. jeff, this would be wagners truck salvage. its about 7 miles or so north of zelienople on rt 19 on the right. JT, i agree nothing would look as good as oak or cherry with varnish but i don't want to have to replace boards on this thing in 2 years. That was my thinking with the trex. durability

word of mouth can do lots of damage!

we go ahaead of schedule sunday and we were passing by, so i stopped at wagners truck salvage. (the office door was wide open and there were several el-camino parked about and the main gate was open) looked at the comanche bed that was on the rack out front....surface rust. i remembered the florida bed he had in the back. i walked into the office and to tell him i wanted to look at the bed in the yard. his son was in the office and told me that he was closed but i could go ask his dad who was outside working on one of the El camino's. the conversation with the old man went as such Me : hey how are you... your son... Him: (interrupting) we are closed! Me : I'm sorry, you son had told me ... Him: (angrly inturrupting) I SAID WE'RE CLOSED!!!! Me: (walking away) Sorry to bother with you! I don't need to deal with an a$$ like that for parts. the only reason i wanted a bed was to keep it original. but i thought there is a tasteful way to do wooden bed .....TREX DECKING!! has anyone done or thought of this? it comes in a few colors and might work with the metallic silver i plan on painting it. we are trying to buy a house so the jeep is somwhat on hold right now so I'm in no hurry to make any kind of purchase

next time i am really constipated ill think of the piggy and say to my self...."it could be worse"

seriously ...where are these people when i drive mine? matt, 1. was this person that called you a saltine cracker a$$ a person of the dark skinned variety? That would make a little more sense... 2. does your truck look that bad that somone would offer you $100 for it? 3. id have told her to Bring it!
