    I did dump ten cans of fluid film into the manual a few weeks ago so it should help.

    Also with this beater having a locker it will be much nicer to learn about offroading with vs smashing up a pristine Gen 2.

    Sweet lucky find man. Just keep the frame from rusting out on you and you'll have that thing as long as you wanna keep it :D:cool:

    OME and worth every penny.
    May have something to do with trucks starting to cost as much as a house.
    I see people doing it to Chevies here near the coast now and never used to. People used to just say they would get a new truck when theirs rusted.
