yupYou should have gone with Savvy. It will last forever.
BTW, that didn't last 18 years. That lasted about 4-5 from the looks of it then got drove into the ground for the next 13ish years before it finally turned to dust.
I was behind an XJ at the dump one day that had both tank straps dragging the ground and the tank itself not far from it on one end. The filler neck had to be the only thing up. I mentioned it to the driver and he said "I just use it to take the trash, so I don't care as long as it runs."BTW, that didn't last 18 years.

too late, it did it to itselfJunk the jeep instead
I'm just trying to get by until 300k. Kind of like a personal goal. Once I have a shop and a truck, the Jeep will probably end up off the road for an extended period while I do some body work and rebuild the original engine. Might do a complete teardown, pulling off the tub and cleaning up the frame while checking it for rust damage.Junk the jeep instead
I'll give that some serious thought at that point. On one hand, I'd love to drop a V8 or desul in there, but on the other hand, I like the simplicity and cost effectiveness of factory-ish drivetrain. I did swap in a NV3550 at one point and have had an 8.8 in for a decade or more.Swap all of that jeep drive train out.
Why not just replace it at that point?I'm just trying to get by until 300k. Kind of like a personal goal.

Doesn't make sense for will
He doesnt like more power with better fuel economy and mileage? It would be easier than rebuilding his stock crap.Doesn't make sense for will
