So dirty, yet so clean. :drool: looks like a minimal amount of the red cancer. :cheers: Twice now I've missed out on purchasing white 91/92s with the swooshes. Maybe some day... :(
springs (front and rear), shocks, and a beefier rear axle (which includes bigger brakes). :thumbsup: I'd also include a trans cooler is auto, and if I were building an MJ to haul that much, I'd go with even deeper gears than the factory gave 'em.
pretending that it's just like any other transmission for a moment, I personally wouldn't pay more than $150 if it has a warranty or if I know for sure that it's good. $50 if I don't.
v8s are notoriously hard to keep cool in our little trucks. :(
Keep reading up on what others have done. :thumbsup: And then read some more. Then ask lots of questions in the Tech forum before buying anything. There's no way to convey all the info you'll need in a post or two. Keep a notepad too (I tend to use an Excel spreadsheet since I can easily move info around) so you can gather all the appropriate info into one place. This will not be a cheap build, even if the major components are next to free. You'll be changing pretty much everything in the truck. The strength to run 35s and the details to make the truck run properly can be costly.
The 2.8L isn't the strongest of engines. For your first build (and considering the truck and your wallet), you might want to scale back the plans a bit. :cheers:
