Here's my pride and joy. 1997 tj. And of course the little big rig w/the jeeps home in front of the dodge.

Here's a couple of my 1985 4 Runner





Here is the new Fiberglass front end!




She is going to be replaced by a CTD soon.

here is the wagoneer that spawned my username.

it wasnt the jeeps fault.

/\/\ Who's fault was it?

Me and the PO.

my main beef with my wagoneer is that while it is a 1987 model year, it is built on 60's technology. the production run goes from 63-91. i should have considered this before i purchased.

but most of all, it was just the stupid little things that kept going wrong. problems i never had with my 85 ramcharger. in the end, she ended up having horrible blow-by because a blown "power valve" was causing the cylinders to be washed down with fuel and bringing my MPG's to an impressive 7 highway. needless to say, she wouldnt pass smog and i wasnt ready to throw a couple grand on a new engine. apperently the power valve blowing is a common occurence with the 2bbl the wags used. one engine burp and that could spell the end. dont get on it right away and you can have yourself a serious oil burner, in a bad way! another thing i didnt really like was the 4wd system. one cool thing is that you could use it full time because it had a differential in the T-case that would cause the driveshafts to slip when needed. some drawbacks were the weak chain driven T-case, and the fact that the hubs were not selectable in any way. front wheel drive was engaged withing the T-case so even in 2wd you were still pushing around the entire front drivetrain, much to the chagrin of my MPG's .

they just arent the most reliable of vehicles, and most of the people @ www.ifsja.org will probably tell you the same, although they are VERY loyal to their FSJ's , and a good bunch of people. if anyone plans on getting an FSJ i highly reccomend that site.

on a side note, an FSJ with a 4bt would be pretty kick butt!

T-minus 45 days until my FJ40 is done. Can't wait for a Paragon shakedown run. Nice rigs in previous posts. It is good to see CTD wheelers too.

Hey LanceD,

What the heck are you doing in Guam? It does look like there is some good wheeling down there.

LanceD

Aint afraid to put it through anything, but it mainly gets relegated to recovery operations so I don't break something expensive

I couldn't afford an atv, so I got a nissan, v-6 5 speed
mods: cummins airbox and 33's w/ no lift. (slight body mods as well)

In the background is the '73 F-100, 2wd w/ 33's on the back to gear it up.
That thing aint been stuck but twice and has pulled out several Z-71s

We also got a '79 CJ-5 w/ a 304 on 33's, but no pics
