[QUOTE="dodgerammit, post: 440567, member: 21375"] Hello all. I'm a relatively active member on FSJNetwork, but now that I have a new YJ ride, I'd figure I'd join here and start a specific thread on my recent purchase for my daily driver. I'm not new to Jeeps (or AMCs for that matter). I've owned this one for over 7 years now and keep making subtle improvements to it. [ATTACH type="full" alt="ZSm6gcm.jpg"]122264[/ATTACH] Picked this one up for the Wife about 5 years ago [ATTACH type="full" alt="yLdjh5g.jpg"]122265[/ATTACH] Sincerely hope you never have to do a rear main in one of these. Goes down as the hardest rear main I've ever tackled. The seal is easy. Getting to it isn't. And the star of the thread is this pile: [ATTACH type="full" alt="j7IlKA8.jpg"]122266[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="SvwziBa.jpg"]122267[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="mepMkxC.jpg"]122268[/ATTACH] Drove 3 hours and hauled it back home. Can't find anything YJ in good condition locally. Everything has been turned into rusted out, clapped out, woods toys that are cobbled together. It has the 4.0 [ATTACH type="full" alt="a2gK0K2.jpg"]122269[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="AuLPZzU.jpg"]122270[/ATTACH] Is an auto with 126K miles [ATTACH type="full" alt="w9pWnKN.jpg"]122271[/ATTACH] And is RHD (no, not used as a postal Jeep ever) [ATTACH type="full" alt="gyBoGkD.jpg"]122272[/ATTACH] The back story is bought new in Laconia, NH, converted from LHD to RHD, and used exclusively on the lakes in the area for some business. It found it's way to KY, where it sat in a shed for over a decade before being nabbed by a guy who bought and sold antique tractors, then purchased from that guy by the PO. The PO spent a few grand on tires, brakes, making sure all mechanicals and gauges were operating and then listed it where I scooped it up the first day it was listed. [/QUOTE]
