Wildman Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Now I'm wondering what I got myself into :doh: So........I see this posting on e-bay last week.........tagged it to watch it.........no one bids on it........but me.........Spent Sunday going out 160 miles to pick it up........and a long 4 hours "dragging" it back............Man.......this thing has some weight to it, not like an MJ :eek: So, This I added to the fleet........... '86, J20, 360, auto, 8ft bed........ And a replacement engine and drive train from a '81 included in the package...... :brows: Now..........what to do with it :hmm: I'll wait for my Jeep Spiritual Adviser to check it out to make a decision about it. Cherokee..........When you stopping by to :drool: over it??? Got a clear SC title with it, seam that it was driven up here, and no one checked the oil......blew the engine, and just needs the replacement bolted in......... :roll: Any one know off hand what the weight of this beast is????
