mrclean Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Where in Waterford are you located if you don't mind be asking? I'm in Clarkston and starting to put together an 89 Eliminator that is now a 4x4. I would be nice to sit down and have a beer with a fellow M.J. person and I would like to get some ideas if possible too. Thanks Travis BTW: Nice ride :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
