This is it getting pulled out of its Arkansonian field tomb of 7 years on July 28th of last year. It's currently in California, awaiting transmission work, having been stripped of "interior" and nests. Other than the wiring, that is.

Details? K.

AMC 304 V8

Borg-Warner T-15 trans and Dana 20 Transfer case

Dana 30 (F) 44 (R)

Renegade, repainted in slightly different yellow. Crap job though, pencil marks still on core support which is super dirty. I'm afraid to wash that part, it's probably the only original thing left on it.

Oh yeah. The bumper. BEAT THAT SMITTYBILT! *grumble* silly bolt-ons. Welding is superior. The curvy rebar is an inch thick.
 
You should see the bumpers in my truck haha.


Nice though. Love these old Jeeps and the AMC engines are stout. Love it man.
