89 MJ

That would be pretty sweet.

Fair enough.

If we want to do something in the spring, I'm sure we could put something together at my parent's house. We have 6 mowed acres. We are on the Mississippi in SW WI. We do have some nice scenery out by us. I have thought of putting a show together for MJs, XJs, FSJs, ZJs, CJs, and YJs. I have nothing against any of the newer Jeeps, but I think including them would result in a complete takeover. I don't want to walk around and look at a bunch of JKs.

I'll play. I would not swap a 242 in an MJ, I would just stick with the stock 231 and here is why. Let's say hypothetically that you are driving along in AWD and your vehicle starts sliding. You try to correct it, but you're now parked in the ditch and you are stuck. You probably won't be able to get out using 4wd because you put it in there in 4wd. If you ditch it in 2wd you might have a fighting chance of using 4wd to get you out. Also, with AWD, by the time you lose traction, it will probably be too late to recover. Just my 2 cents. With all of that said, if I needed a T-case and I found a 242 before I found a 231, I would still get it and just run it in 2wd.

Nope, completely worthless. I can take it off of your hands for disposal though! Yes, it is a pretty valuable diff. Is it for an MJ, an XJ, or something else?

This thing would be perfect with a solid axle in the front and an AX-15

We got most of the parts from Super Scout, and I have to say, they were some of the best patch panels I've ever worked with. The parts are made using the old IH dies.

Sweet! My buddy, his dad, me, and my dad put new floors and quarter on their Scout II this spring!

My MJ in the summer and my dad lets me use his work truck in the winter (for this year while I save funds for a winter beater).

I couldn’t imagine that water. That would be awful. We went to Camp Parsons our on the Olympic Penninsula of WA and that water was freezing too. I’m sure it had nothing on Alaska though.

Thank you! I am hoping to get the building part of the project done before my 17th Birthday.

I am not OA nor do I have the Vigil Honor, but I have been working on my Eagle Scout project. Hopefully my last workday on it will be in the next few weeks.

That’s cool! The last 2 are the best.

It was very cool. And to see it from our house made it even cooler.

This does sound like a fairly profitable endeavor. Sadly, I don’t foresee it happening any time soon.

Yes u will need to go to the 1987 section and create a new topic there. Have your VIN as the title.

Let’s make this a plan. It sounds like a good time.

No it won’t because most trucks have a 2+ inch rake stock because they are built to sit level when they are loaded.

That is a very acceptable answer. I agree to it too.

Why not just have a big CC cookout in a random parking lot?

Of course, same with mine. I'm sure many would agree. Tow hooks too.

I plan to go too!

Both very cool rigs!

It’s hard to see, but if you look closely above the rear flare of my Comanche just above the white part of the sky, you can see Air Force 1. He is coming to the town 6 miles away from us. This isn’t about politics, it’s just cool.

Fair enough. LOL
