    Options After Blown Head Gasket

    Thanks to both of y'all for the advice! At this point, I think we'll just go with the rebuild. As appealing as Walt's swap ideas are, we have a decent rebuilder in our town, and I honestly just don't have the time and need a running vehicle. Thanks Again!

    Hey Y'all, We're fixing up our new-to-us '87 yj, and the liftgate needs to be replaced. My question is, do the ball studs that are used to connect the struts to the window change between the yj and tj? because I find parts labeled for the tj that look kind of like what I think I need, but I...
