Thanks for buying that Scrambler, you saved me a bunch of cash.
I have been eyeballing it on kijiji for at least a  month now and if it was there much longer, it would have ended up in my garage.

Yeah that would be great any advice and help works for me, i'm just starting to learn how the internal mechanical parts work in these jeeps. Where are your other rigs located then, planning on piecing them together?

It's been a while since I've posted on here, no longer have the tj and I'm almost done the cj. I still need to finish a lot of the wiring, installing the fuel cell and adding a tire carrier to the cage.
