WahooSteeler Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 you didn't happen to notice if it was a metric ton did you? what did it have for rear leafs considering it was lifted? congrats too, nice score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroader461 Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 no i double checked the rear...just had some really bad shackles and it had stock rear leaves...also had a d35...if it was a metric ton AMC20 i would've been coming home with that too :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfpdm Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Good score. I saw my first MJ amc20 on ebay this week. 4.10 wms to wms, $200 +shipping. Click Here :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Damn that 20's got a pumpkin on it! So how rare were these and under what spec were they put on MJs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 86 2.8v6 4wd won't be 4.10 gears. that's 3.54 or 3.73, unless someone special ordered it with 4.10's (which is unlikely) did you read the tags, or just assume? ...dana 20 rear or 35?

tkgibbs27 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 not worried about the parts. i am thinking about getting the unibody and frame. build one from the ground up. not right away but in the near future. if they have hundreds of mjs there, then it'll probably be the first place i look when i decide to do this.

JeepcoMJ Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 some were recked. they had some to sell. most were parted out I have a very hard time believing your story. i'd like contact info of the place, name of it, and location. if there is this great MJ junkyard, I'm sure the rest of us would agree with me...we'd like access.
