Looks like it could be a fairly nice deal. This is NOT mine, and I don't even know the guy, so don't email me with questions. ;) Just passing along the link; I know there are a lot of you on the list who live up in the OR/WA area. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I come from a small town whose population never changed.

(unless there is something I'm missing as far as frame info...) just looked at the factory shop manual for the body... looks as if the killer 32 nerf bars I have for my J10 will fit my GW... the frame in the front is the same width... in the back the J10 is 0.04 inches wider??? the only issue might be the length.. the J10 bars appear a little shorter than the ones used on the wag... 55" verses whatever they are on the full wag... Shouldn't be a big deal, so I have shorter bars, who cares, they'll still work. :) Going to use the brush guard from Superdawg as well, it has light tabs... (have another brush guard for superdawg). Superdawg will be getting this nice rebuilt 4.2L with a Weber carb, retain his T-5/NP208, but is getting a nice "platinum" paint job, just like my '99 WJ. Superdawg will get the GW's leather seats. Guess I need to drag the 4.2 and brushguard down to centralia, or maybe curtis can haul them back if he tows omega up next week??? The 14th approaches... cool. The emphasis has shifted from setting up Superdawg as my custom daily driver to a nicely restored, mostly original J10 stepside... only non-stock items on the Dawg will be the weber carb, paint color and of course the XJ's sunroof. Will look great, and still be reasonably economical to drive... Maybe I should consider keeping the stock color too... as much as I had that copper brown metallic it would take less to deal with... and cost less too... thoughts? My Jeep budget is just about drained... three Jeep projects coming to a close is making my wallet really, really thin. Have the radiator from the '48 Cj-2a in the trunk, need to have the outputs switched on the bottom to work with the stock engine... Picked up another 5 gallons of waste veggie oil tonight... don't forget to mount that auxillary tank in Omega. :) later, john ----- - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold http://freegift.com ** http://wagoneers.com ** - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ End of fsj-digest V1 #2843 **************************
