    Yeah, I'm in Michigan so plenty of rust buckets around. Those braces will come in handy if I need to rust repair whatever I buy, hoping to find something decent but that won't be easy up here.

    Comanches are cool, but I've always wanted to do a Cherokee.

    I feel ya on the deep, dark black hole to throw money down, I've owned boats and race cars so I'm experienced in these situations :laugh3: I may bomb around in it with modest upgrades first, seems like a sensible way to figure out which direction to go. Thanks for the advice!

    You guys are amazing with the awesome, comprehensive replies! As I mentioned in a post above, my intention was never to be able to be able to keep pace with the SxS's hammering through twisty fire trials so your comments regarding this are spot on. I also agree with you 100 percent regarding...

    There is no doubt that the LS path is the one of least resistance. A whole world of aftermarket parts exists for them, and they make great power for a little money.

    Hello all, I'm new to the site and to Jeeps. I'm an old man that's too fat to crawl in and out of buggies and sxs's anymore and don't want to eat dirt and freeze my ass off getting soaked from crashing through puddles and mudding. I've four wheeled and buggied through the woods my whole life...
