sold the brown shortbed on the trip to MI and replaced it with a red longbed before I even got back to GA.

My stash no longer resides in a city. we sold that house so those days are behind me. but I still won each and every case vs the city of Riverview and none of it cost me a dime since they were also harping on my lawyer friend about his yard and he had an ax to grind. nothing like bringing a constitutional lawyer that works for several giant corporations to a tiny city court over a supposed parking violation.

nah, you gotta earn such a title with fights with your city and family and neighbors.

the trailer is kinda full of other parts at the moment. patience

in a junkyard. no other info yet. will update as I learn more.

20 years of doing this will produce good ideas now and again.

only if Azzy swings by and does it themselves. feel free to encourage them to do that.

I do believe Rustys also sells 4.5 leafpacks. not sure about General Spring. but those are the 3 big names in on-the-shelf MJ leafs so that's where you should look.

flood vs spot all depends on how you use your truck. I went with flood on my led bar on the Libby because if I'm ever someplace where I truly need to see 200 yards down the road because I fear a deer strike, I slow the heck down. plus I really like being able to see EVERYTHING within 50 yards of the windshield, no matter where I point my eyes. not applicable when on roads with oncoming traffic of course.

that Jeep is in good hands ready to tackle the next couple decades

I'd suggest driving around chicago best to give it a wide berth. looks like my shortest path is 10.5 hrs, but I rarely do that since I can't not also hunt for parts.

you're not going to find one. I would start a new thread with a title that states what you're looking for and where you are and cross your fingers. more eyes equals a better chance of success. people that already own one might not be checking in on this thread.

found this in a super old folder on my computer

the first gen Libbys had 2 different choices for 4bangers with one being turbocharged (the diesel) both are rare as heck though. I don't spend a ton of time on second gen Libby sites, but I hear that later 3.7s have better longevity. but then 1st gen can easily go past 200k. or blow up. one of the other. and sometimes even both!

good idea!

Marlar and son's Dismatling in north TN has 2 MJs, but they are kinda stripped. interiors are pretty trashed. no beds any more

did you happen to see this truck in there anywhere?

you should start a new thread in Tech so that more eyes will see it.

currently mine has old stock MJ leafs with a long XJ 3" AAL stuck in there. before the AAL, after the AAL, empty, or heavily laden (with 2 complete engines and a trans/t-case plus my engine hoist) it pulls like a dream behind both the Durango and the Libby. other people have complained that their MJ trailer is a bit jumpy and I kinda want to attribute it to the new shocks they used as to the old worn shocks I put on mine. but I don't currently have a pair of new shocks to test that hypothesis out.

time and effort always costs something, whether it be his or yours. can't hurt to go look at it and talk shop with him. seeing one in person beats random backlit internet pictures any day

that would sure save a lot of time and effort.

good catch! I missed that. correction made.

that looks pretty sweet!

daaaaaaaamn that's a nice truck!
