    Thank you, it needs a lot of love, both rockers are rotten and wiring is a mess. The bonus is that it only has 20500 original miles and the engine runs great! It steers like a 30 year old furniture cart with only 3 wheels lol.

    Only a 30 year old furniture cart? It's not even acting it's age then. Amazing how even with the incredibly low mileage, stuff still seems to wear out. Looks like you have something good to work with though. I'm still working on the steering and some rear suspension problems with mine. Off road is great, but nothing like the thrill of surviving the wandering highway drive to the trailhead. It's a Jeep, nothing a little work and lots of money can't fix.
