    Tires, for now
    Don't really know what caused it, I started to lose all my power, 2 cylinders had almost no compression left. I thought about a engine swap, but figured there was no way I was going to do that for the same price, not to mention the headache. Coughed up the money to get the head resurfaced, and its running like a top again.

    Yup haha None of them had lockers, so everything they had to get momentum to get up I could just climb.

    There was one spot that they all drove up the side of a cliff while I was coming down some rocks. I drove up beside them and passed them as I kept climbing up. :D

    It looks awesome! Bed liner or a matte paint. I like it on it. Doubt it'd look good on my truck but I think the jeep can get away with it.

    It just looks like its faded to the flat gray look, I would like it better if it was a black color

    So when are you going to do yours?:D

    Ported, polished and painted upper intake. painted valve covers and a tune up. Runs and idles smoother response and acceleration a little better comparing the mpg to before now to see if there are any results.

    Wait. Those Heeps, as built up as they are, don't have the best mod that gives them the most capability?

    Well, I guess that's why they bought Heeps instead of Toyotas.
