.....from a non-newbie! :smiley:
Okay guys... serious issue here. I stumbled onto a 88" MJ. 4cyl/auto/2x4 non D44. BUT its a short box and in decent condition. I have a LOAD of questions. So please bear with me.... and its ok to flame! Oh and a few are OEM questions sorry.
1. It does have the D35 in it. What is a good guess at gear ratio and if it is c-clip or not?
2. Is the 4 banger as reliable as the 6 cyl? It has 135k on it.
3. How structural is the bed for the ummm unibody? Do I call it a unibody?
4. Since I am in AZ right now, I want to do a little desert running with it / mild jumping. Is this just a plain dumb idea with out a full length cage?
5. Is the solid beam axle decently strong? will it hold 33s without fear of bending? Cuz' I want to beat the piss outa it before I do surgery on it.
last one... Is there ANY terminal problems that the 4cyls have that I need to be aware of?
Mods, if this is in wrong forum, forgive me and move it.
Thanks!
